[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Arsenal *** Official Match Thread ***

[Bodian]

Very unfortunate after a good start from Brighton Don’t blame Lamptey - he made every effort to play the ball - just bad timing imo. Decision could have gone our way on a lucky day.

He DID play the ball....

 

[AmexRuislip]

Alan Smith really is a smug ****

 

[London Irish]

Very clumsy from Lamptey

 

[fruitnveg]

Should apply some pressure to Raya, he'll fold like a cheap suit.

 

[Ethelwulf]

Sums up the premier league the so called best league in the world. Wankers

 

[Bridcutt]

Game is being fulled decided by the ref

 

[American Seagle]

At least the commentators are still talking about how it wasn't a penalty.

Very clumsy from Lamptey

It definitely was

 

[Hendrax]

in the replays, he clearly hits the ball, changing the flight of the ball. disgraceful decision,

 

[Blues Guitarist]

Commentator is a dick, saying it's a penalty because Lamptey only got a little nick on the ball.

 

[Reddleman]

It’s one of those that I can understand why it’s not overturned. BUT the ref just couldn’t wait to give it.

 

[Ethelwulf]

This 100 per cent and that wanker Brooks would never of given it at the other end I’m sick to death of this premier league bollocks

 

[BevBHA]

The media will stick to the narrative it was correct, as Alan Smith on commentary is doing. And you won’t hear anything more about it after the game. In completely contrary to how it would be the other way around.

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

He didn't. No different to the one that was overturned when March "fouled" someone a few years ago but got a touch. In fact lamptey got more on the ball. If you think that is a foul maybe take up basketball.

Or maybe you should go for basketball as you’re clearly not sure on the rules of football and you’re in the best country for it. It doesn’t matter that he got a ‘slight’ touch on the ball, it’s still a foul. Stupid challenge.

 

[WhingForPresident]

Now faking injury to kill our momentum, waste time and have a team talk.

 

[American Seagle]

Commentator is a dick, saying it's a penalty because Lamptey only got a little nick on the ball.

What? Lee Dixon of all people is still going on about how bad a decision it was and shouldn't have been a penalty. Lee...Dixon! You know it's bad.

 

[KZNSeagull]

Nearly from Enciso. Good save

 

[rebel51]

Still stupid from lamptey going in like that

 

[fruitnveg]

I really want to shit on their day now. I MUST see a sulky, moody spanish tw*t on the sidelines by full time.

On Sky its Alan Smith, who is a woeful commentator at the best of times. Seen more enthusiasm on death row
