Brighton & Hove Albion vs Derby County *** Official Match Thread ***

[Mellotron]

It was my fault we lost against Newcastle. All 7 home games I've been to this season, worn the same lucky t-shirt, replica shirt, pre-match routine, buy a programme, pie and pint, won all 7. Against Newcastle I got talked into buying one of the lottery tickets. Rest assured I won't be making that mistake tonight or for the rest of the season

Please don't take risks like that again this season. Not worth it.

What the hell were you thinking

Come to think of it, I recall Chris Hughton mentioning it as a mitigating factor in his post-match interview too.

Going to bed soon and when I wake up we will be joint leaders and all will be well in the world, for 24hrs at least.

I'm making the ultimate sacrifice (well, almost). I'm convinced that things go badly when I sit in my own seat (Ipswich, Newcastle) but that we play well when I can't go and my sister-in-law uses the ticket instead (Burton, Reading). So she's going tonight and I'm watching at home on Sky. I've never done this before for a home game, but I reckon it's worth it if we get three points.

Can't bear these superstitious nonsenses.

As a compromise, can't you get in the press box?

She's a pensioner so I might have been able to claim a refund, but I'm donating the difference to help CH pay Forren's wages.

Not working tonight so it wouldn't be right. Plenty of clubs allow freeloaders in press boxes but they'd do better to offer the seats to journalism students. Anyway, this is about us winning.

Im looking forward to this one but every game is tough and i expect it to be so tonight.

Had to park at Race Course due to LR being full earlier than normal. Missed pie & pint. Leaving for match a full ONE HOUR earlier than normal tonight. But, if early can I have two pints instead of one or is that unlucky?

In my experience the amount of beer doesn't affect the result, it was the sodding lottery ticket

Horror. Giving your ticket to someone else. Do NOT tell PB or he'll want some money. Make sure she has your ID in case she is checked at the gate, oh and wear mens clothes and speaks with a low voice. She may get away with it. Security guys are in for a shock though when she gets frisked.

Always down the left hand steps and one lottery ticket from the young guy who stands on the right (he always stands on the right). Never won the lottery and hope not to tonight.

I don't WANT people to think I'm STUPID but how can a team with players like Derby have such as Ince, Nugent, Johnson, Bent, Hughest etc & etc be so poor ?

Nugent is overrated.
Bent is about 40
Johnson poor attitude

I'll give you Hughes....

In saying that, overall decent squad. Always a tough game vs derby.

Fog looks bad....
