[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Manchester City *** Official Match Thread ***

[Arthritic Toe]

Great words of commentary too from Jonathan Pearce on the noise coming from the home fans.

Can't say I'm his biggest fan... "..and Matt O'Riley puts Manchester City 2-1 down"

Really? Big team bias isn't limited to referees.

 

[B-right-on]

Yes they're normally OK. Genuinely don't have too much issue with most of the bigger clubs fans to be honest. Especially those that attend. Some quality 'shameless' accents heading up the slope near me yesterday.

The Big exception for me are united. Who always seem like smug, unpleasant pricks.

Ever been to a Chelsea game? Hard to think of a worse set of fans (well apart from The Scum) in their abuse, behaviour and attitude. Collectively they are utter bell ends.

This team/club never fails to amaze me. What was Poyet on about ? CEILINGS wasn’t it ?

He didn’t want to win that play off game that bit was obvious.
Benching Lua Lua and no Vicente in the squad glad he got sacked can’t stand the bloke.

Ah yes. I'd forgotten about Chelsea. Then again, subconsciously I don't really think of them as a big club. I think I spent too many years watching them with a cortina parked behind a goal.

JPVH's long passing has become Dunkyesque

Weirdly, I actually found the plastic Arsenal / United / Liverpool wankers revelling in our win, even MORE annoying than the City wankers.

Not weird at all. They really are f*cking armchair bell-ends.

Watch the pitchside shot of O'Riley's goal at the very end. Mitoma is bouncing with joy. For a guy who is normally so cool and reserved.....brilliant.

Yeah I saw that, lovely! These multi angle videos show a lot of stuff I hadn't noticed on the live match camera (I can't attend).

One of my favourite bits to watch back (and there are quite a few) is when, having headed wide at the end,
Gvardiol throws himself to the floor full tantrum stylie

Talking of tantrums. Did you spot JPvH reaction when Hinshelwood headed right at the keeper (I think it was that miss as we started to build up pressure on their goal). Seen from behind on one of the many videos I've watched. Very funny.

It's as good as Haaland (spelling?) screaming his head off after our first goal. He's so humble .

 

[raymondo]

Has anyone seen a lip reading translation of Pep's monologue to JPVH as they left the pitch? Weird side of Pep, focusing on an oppo player... possibly takes his mind off the: unhappy Citeh fans? post match questions ?.
Any ideas, people?
- "you bossed Haaland, I'll buy you in August
- " he only pulled your shirt cos you fouled him all game
- "your long passes are better than Stones'
- "Hey Dunky, not bad for your age
- ??
