Brighton & Hove Albion vs Bristol City *** Official Match Thread ***

[sparkie]

My bookie winnings on being champions are at stake here. Need to win at Villa FFS.

 

[maltaseagull]

Well we are promoted. But bottled the title clinching game in front of our home crowd.
Very disappointed with the performance tonight.

 

[carteater]

I hope that gives us a kick up the arse for Villa.

Sky will select that and Newcastle Barnsley now. And have a complete wankfest when Newcastle win the title.

 

[Marxo]

We are going up!

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Why are there so many empty seats!!!!

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

Big difference though. They were singing to us that we would **** it up. We didn't but they did.

Our goal was promotion. Achieved.
We are still in the driving seat for the title, but the reaction on here is so f*cking pathetic. Christ, it's not like Hereford - that was crucial.

I thought you followed Brighton. You must have missed a large section of fans and the club going into a presumptive party mode that this was the game that we'd win the title by winning.

We have been in the driving seat for the last two games, how's that worked out for us?

We had the kick up the arse against Norwich......didn't work.

 

[JonathanLivingstonSeagull]

It felt like an England match in a major tournament before the game! Feels exactly like that now at the end

 

[Brok]

And so to Villa we go...

 

[carteater]

This bottling of the title will linger like a bad smell and affect us in the premier league next season. I can really see us going straight back down on today's evidence.

 

[Seagull58]

Get them off the f'ing pitch.

 

[larus]

It's fun to get miserable about disappointment. Do you not come here often? Appreciate you just got goaded by one said miserabilist.

Been on here since 2003 so have a seen a lot of different reactions. I just find the tantrums quite pathetic really. We are still top by a point and are going up. Life's cushty.

Sky have gotten thier championship wet dream. All comes down to the final game

 

[hart's shirt]

Well, there'll be a lot more people travelling to Villa now, even with the underwhelming performance.

It's still in our own hands, of course.

Sadly, this fact may be forgotten with the inevitable melodramatic internet handwringing after today's anticlimax.

It was never a given that we'd win today even if people were throwing streamers and waving flags.

We'll still be champions.

 

[GT49er]

Oh bollox.

Yes, I know we're promoted, but that's been a huge disappointment.

 

[Perfidious Albion]

Oh Perfidious Albion indeed! I feel like

Oh do give over!!!!

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Oh well.

That Flint Shane Duffyed our attack. Don't think he lost a header all game.

Gutted that the Wigan game wasn't televised and that I've stayed up until 5;30 am to see us lose to Norwich and now 3:30 to see us lose to Bristol. And I've got to be up at 7 for work. Bollocks.

Guess I should miss the Villa game if its televised and let us win the league...

 

[Si Gull]

Oh bollox.

Yes, I know we're promoted, but that's been a huge disappointment.

Exactly that. I don't get how people are not disappointed. I want us to win every game - I know it can't happen, but I still want it.

 

[Icy Gull]

Title hopes gone I fear but what a season, let's not forget that
