Brighton & Hove Albion vs Barnsley *** Official Match Thread ***

[Everest]

Not enough "Were Loose" on the first page. I will have to downgrade my prediction. 5-0 it is then.

Team will be same that started on Saturday except Bruno back for Calde, I reckon.

Were loose

 

[somerset]

I am flying in today for the match and staying for the Leicester game. Please let me see 2 wins!

I suspect a win and a draw,.........

Were loose

 

[HastingsSeagull]

4-2 thriller please as bringing family members tonight

 

[brightonmark1234]

brighton to win 2-1 and i feel it wont be as Comfortable as people think it will be and i think we are in for a nervy night

 

[Hotchilidog]

A frustrating night of trying to breakdown an 11 man defence awaits. If ever there was a game to prick the current bubble of optimism it is this one.

Or we score in the first 5 minutes.

 

[Hotchilidog]

Or we score in the first 5 minutes.

That would be nice.

Seriously though, that is what we should be aiming to do. When you are playing a team low on confidence you should really go for the throat right from the off. I hope we try and hit the ground running tonight.

Bridcutt back marshalling the team, another Barnes brace... 3-0 to the good guys.

 

[DavidinSouthampton]

We need Bridcutt and Ince in midfield - that's the long and the short of it.

I've been storing that one up for months - now someone will probably tell me it has been done already.

But I, too, sense a nervy night. I just hope we are not either too complacent (I don't think we will be) or too anxious.

I've whacked £500 on us with a one goal handicap, 13/8 is outstanding value against a side who concede as readily as Barnsley. If this comes in it'll pretty much pay for my Christmas.

 

[Guinness Boy]

This one scares the bejezus out of me. Us - unbeaten in 6. Them - managerless, fanless and unable to beat one off. It can only mean WERE LOOSE.

Yes - in my blacker moments, I think it has "shock away win" written all over it.

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

We are long overdue a good midweek win at the AMEX - in fact I don't think we've ever had one there.

I've a feeling it will come at last tonight.

You're quite right. Every single time Brighton has a fixture that screams HOME WIN you just know, in fact its a scientific certainty, that we'll play shit and lose by the odd goal.

Barnsley will play the masterstroke tonight by just being on the pitch to watch us self destruct....here is the match summary:

First half: Brighton dominance, 15 shots (11 off target) 65% possession and no goals. Barnsley win one debatable corner and score via a deflection.

Second half: Brighton huff and puff, Barnsley continue to put 11 men behind the ball. Final score 0-1.

Post match fall out: Garcia out threads, catering crap, transport crap although on the plus side the 124 Barnsley supporters in attendance congratulate us on our spifffing stadium via their sub standard message board.

 

[GreersElbow]

I have a feeling we're going to thump them again, a repeat of last season? Yes please.

 

[TheJasperCo]

This is a great opportunity for our less-than-prolific attackers to get their names on the score-sheet. But because of all the negativity on here, it can only mean one thing: where loos.
