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

[Reddleman]

I think RDZ got the team wrong today.

Firstly Webeck and Ferguson has never worked well.

Secondly against a team like Everton surely you want the likes of Fati and Lallana playing between their big lumps. Instead it’s like we played right into their hands .

Thought the referee had a very good game. Comments about a second yellow for Tarkovski are wide of the mark - it would have been extremely harsh to give a second yellow for such an innocuous foul.

Couldn’t disagree more. Weak and fell for all of their antics.

The foul for the potential second yellow was literally exactly the same as what he already had a yellow for. It was even on the same player.

Dyche has mugged us off again! These draws against Everton, Sheff U, Burnley and Fulham could cost us European football for next season. Frustrating!

 

[Littlemo]

I hate Dyche and his shitty teams so so much, he and they just suck any joy out of the game. I should be buzzing that down to 10 men we score an injury time equaliser but I'm just a mixture of pissed off and bored - both because of the absolute turgid shite he puts us through every single time we play him.

I really, really wish he'd just f*** off.

This is exactly how I feel. I don’t even actually hate Everton as a team, they are fine, I hate Dycheball.

But then I stop and think, Dyche is exactly the kind of guy that would love us to hate him. He’ll see it as “doing something right” in that annoying way absolute pricks do. Then I wonder if I should pretend to think he’s great after all, just to spite the bastard.

 

[AlexBH]

Apparently our goal was the first headed goal Everton have conceded all season according to BBC sport. An incredible statistic, especially for a team so low down! Easy to see where there strengths lie, but my god must be awful to watch them week in week out.

 

[lizard]

Good chance we won't have to play them next season at least.

were loose

Wrong Dear Friend, were drawered

How did Tarkowski stay on the pitch given how card happy the ref was for Albion fouls?

This is the question. Nailed on second yellow. I thought for a moment when the ref walked to the touchline that VAR might have told him to take a look at a possible red but, no, it was to book de Zerbi. What a bottler.

They won’t go down, no way.

 

[Justice]

Good point in the end thought Billy was short all game and not surprised he got a red. Time for Baleba to show his worth.

Good point

 

[boik]

We played shite. We got a point.

You don't play shite and have 20 plus shots. We were far from perfect but we were not shite.

 

[rebel51]

They've got so many unlikeable players.

Pickford.
Tarkowski.
That midfielder who looks like a crackhead

And there gravel voice, horrible ginger dalek(good outfit) dyche.

 

[AlexBH]

Ironically the header that Dunk scored was more difficult than the one in the first half. If we go 1-0 up it’s obviously a totally different game. You’ve got to score in the first half against these kind of teams otherwise it becomes another frustrating afternoon.

 

[stss30]

There will probably be a fair bout of negativity on here tonight but I for one thoroughly enjoyed the fight we showed when down to 10 and the joy Gross and Dunky shared when we scored - in conjunction with the look on Dyche's face.

Would have been nice to win of course, but to be honest I thought in terms of quality chances created it was fairly even - despite us dominating possession as usual.

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

Could you imagine watching that Everton shite week in week out. Burnley in a different colour shirt. In the end their time wasting cost them 2 points.

How many times does Dyche need to be out of his technical area before the officials at least have a word. Thought he was playing left back for some parts of the second half.

 

[rebel51]

Good point in the end and a fair result. We didn't really create much at all throughout the game except the early Welbeck chance. Happy we didn't lose but unhappy that I had to listen to Glenn Murray for 90+ minutes

Yeh the boring palace twat. Sorry abt that Glen.

 

[Zeberdi]

It’s frustrating, but come on. Remember where we’ve come from. If you’re unable to enjoy a last gasp equalizer in the premier league…that’s sad. We’re not entitled to roll teams over, even if we are the better footballing team. I know this kind of result is common, but so are some of the emphatic wins. Enjoy it while it lasts because one day we’ll be the ones struggling for wins again!

I don’t need a sanctimonious lecture on how I should be a more appreciative fan thanks- I’ve been supporting Brighton for 50 years and have rarely rarely said anything negative about the team or individual - I’m the least entitled person there is
- in fact the very opposite- it is usually me singing our praises when others have criticised our . manager or players/season/match performance

I didnt say anything negative about the team today either - My remark has been taken entirely out of context. If we had not played very well and created so many chances in the first half hour, I would have been more excited about a draw but we missed some very easy walk ins that should have had us up by several goals before half time.

Ive been in hospital most of the week and still very ill with a kidney and serious chest infection - it would have taken a win today to get me anywhere near feeling excited - it is what it is.

Yep. He had a poor game today and to be honest has not been on it for the past three or four weeks. It was a poor challenge too. Probably knackered in his defence.

Looking forward to seeing someone else there to give Gross a bit more support.
