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

[Official Old Man]

I’m at the ground already, not sure why the stadium is red, I thought City played in sky blue ??

Whilst you're there, laugh at the Leicester fans who are 24 hours early.

The youngest has managed to get an extended bed time so will be coming to his first (early) evening game, so there’s two fingers to your auto not attending guilt email campaign

Good to hear Hürzeler will be there.

Rutter thunderbolt and a Mitoma masterclass will see this lot off today,a 15 minute run out for Pedro will be a added bonus as well.

Apart from wanting the 3 points it's important that Citeh start failing again as a club; their sports-washing Abu Dhabi owners are determined to undermine the Premier League and over the next 25 years will lead the charge in trying to change rules in favour of "big" clubs and setting-up a European or world super league . They don't give a monkeys about the English league pyramid structure.

Bit early but not too bad for an 8pm KO

They’re going to go flip out spanky wanky on us.

We should definitely make 'flip out spanky wanky' enter the official football commentary lexicon.

Fast forward two years and all the forum newbies will be asking what FOSW means.

I think we need a new acronym now that SEGW doesn’t get used much

First home game I'm missing this season. Bound to be something fantastic!

We still have CJTC (does it still get used?)

“Agueeeeerrooooooo! He’s done it! He’s gone full flip out spanky wanky, that’s MENTAL that is!”

Need to discuss the housekeeping

 

[pigmanovich]

Lots of Turkish fans around town, looks like Ferdi’s our next Mitoma.

There were two in Turkish tops sat just along from us at the Wolves game.

 

[Affy]

Even injury hit Citeh are an excellent team and this will be a tough game. Not sure if there is ever a good time to play them but I. The back of 3 defeats… surely can’t be the worst.
Decent performance a point at least please. UTA

 

[Frutos]

No defensive cover on the bench.

The amount of times I've already heard about Pep and City potentially losing 4 on the trot for the first time ever, it's never going to happen is it

 

[Zeberdi]

No defensive cover on the bench.

Baleba and Weiffer on the bench.

And Hinsh can drop back if necessary.

 

[Frutos]

Baleba and Weiffer on the bench.

Neither of whom are defenders.
