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

[Dick Head]

So excited

were loose

 

[Jimmy Come Lately]

Starting the ref/VAR discussion early; Bankes is a concern as he is in the top 5%of the "80%" but Madley is fairly ok, is he not?

I just noticed this morning that the names of the ref and VAR are now the first things I look for in the opening stat fart. And that made me a little sad.

 

[Silverhatch]

Looking at that first post they’ve got a pretty impressive missing player list too.

Exactly. They still have Mbeumo though.

 

[Official Old Man]

I'm taking my boots. Overweight and 68 but I could stand on the centre spot and be used for a wall pass. I could also take up half the goal in the case of a penalty.

You could also take one for the team if needed

Betting on Maupay to score against us seems the most obvious flutter of the day. I can’t see how he won’t be at his best, he is that sort of player.

Indeed.

He'll also go mental, a bit like how Nathan Jones did when he scored against us when he played for Yeovil.

would hope not, honestly. he didn’t celebrate when he scored against brentford for us

Didn't he make some comment about upgrading to a big club when he moved to Everton? He must feel a little embarrassed in his private moments

I hope he does.
The reaction from some people would be hilarious.
Ideally he'll pull his shorts down and moon the whole ground.

 

[Nobby Cybergoat]

Brentford are physical, direct, organised and very good at set pieces. Not the kind of team we want to be playing when we are down to the bare bones.

Yes. They will have been watching our first half against Chelsea and salivating at trouble we had with set pieces.

We'll need to stop giving them away so cheaply and defend more stoutly when they get them. We look like such a soft touch

 

[Swegulls]

If Jensen play we'll be watching throw-in-procedures for about 10 minutes. Yawn!

The only important question today is under layer or no under layer? I think I’m going full on ski wear.

Nathan Jones didn't score against us for Yeovil. If you are referring to the incident when Micky Adams had a pop at him in a post match interview that was for Jones role is getting Joe Anyinsah sent off.

Electric socks and electric gloves for me.

Chilly tonight. Under layer. Under layer! ¡Arriba!

I've asked Wrighty for a lend of his coat tonight, should keep me nice and warm.

I hope so too. Genuinely don't get this weird convention about ex-players not celebrating goals. They play for a different team now, and they want that team to beat us. That requires scoring goals against us.

I know it might be a bit different if it's a player who was a genuine legend at the club or who left in exceptionally emotional circumstances. But players like Dan Burn, Neal Maupay, Ben White and Trossard are very welcome to celebrate if they like, as far as I'm concerned. Even Mac Allister, if he wants.
