Listening in bed courtesy of JC and WA......just wow. Sounded pretty dominant second half, subs perfectly done by Fab.

I bet Warren was not happy with the ref !!

What a week - Trump el Presidento and Brighton beating Man City! A fantastic second half and a well deserved Victory (if you discount the first 35 mins). Plus a biased ref! Great performance. We beat Man City 4 1 in 1979 at the Goldstone. Tony's dad was a director of Brighton at the time.

were loose

Magnificently very very incorrect, Dear Friend

Awesome win, fantastic

I bet Warren was not happy with the ref !!

Less happy with our players.....he was very critical of several (up until about 30 mins to go )

First 35 mins, not good, not bad. We certainly upped it after that!! Young Jack looked devastated that he had to go off & I felt really bad for him. Scared the cat with the 1st goal but he should know better than to sit on me whilst watching the game. Scared the dog with the 2nd goal!!! I'm off to a birthday party now, guest of honour will probably be 'very' late as he's at the match!
I'm watching on Sky & can't decide whether Pep was telling off JVPH or tapping him up! It's almost a shame that there won't be any Man City fans at the party (they're not plastic to be fair).
Welcome back Pedro & welcome to the PL O'Riley!! Amazing all the lads, well done. Yeah you're alright as well Fab!
So far (whilst waiting for the cab) no one has said City are having a bad day! It's just Brighton have been good!! Love it, UTA!!!
I may have had a couple of beers already, if I come back later & say anything that's annoying.... ignore it!!!
Edit... the ref was a bit of a knob!
2nd edit... Cab still isn't here but Fab speaks really fast in English!

 

[Eric the meek]

A shout for JPVH for annoying Pep at the end

 

[Cheshire Cat]

Been busy. Have I missed anything?

 

[jimhigham]

Jeez, what a noise when the winner goes in. Goosebumps.

 

[Madafwo]

Been busy. Have I missed anything?

Nah, not really.

I’m in bits, what a win and can’t quite believe we’ve beaten City - amazing scenes and great support from the stands, especially in the 2nd half - let’s keep going BHAFC, onwards and upwards

 

[SeagullsoverLondon]

At the O2 to watch Nick Cave. Only managed to catch some of the game on my phone, but what a second half performance.
It's almost as if we watched what Liverpool did to us last week, and then learnt how to do it to City.

 

[huzzah]

Now all you have to do is beat Villa

why are you suggesting that you want a title rival to win (* ok he's a forrest fan, but the sentiment is the same)

 

[Biscuit]

We were nothing short of brilliant, seizing control after the break and showing City just how dangerous we can be. Pedro's goal was deserved for our relentless pressure imo. Other than the first half hour, it felt like we were always the better side, pushing City at every turn and continuously prodding their high line to find a weakness. I felt the ref gave them everything as well.

Mitoma tormented Walker, and when O'Riley burst through it was pure vindication. Joy. Utter joy. City completely rattled.

Fab nailed the subs, changed shape when we needed to and managed the game out perfectly.

Fearless, dominant, full of heart. Get in there Brighton. What a night.

 

[Pevenseagull]

Enjoyed that.

 

[peterward]

What a stonking end to a really shitty week.

Aye. But i would've taken 2-1 to city and Harris in the White House!
