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

[banjo]

I hope we’ll be singing 1-0 and you ****ed it up, when we go on to win 2-1.

I don't feel like this at all.........absolutely buzzing for it. Last home game after a superb season (exceeding most expectations) and most importantly chance of a result and guaranteed safety, and I do love a Friday night game too. Hope the atmosphere is fizzing - although if plenty have your slightly downbeat view it may not be.........

Absolutely buzzing too, who wouldn't be on a glorious day like this? My initial disappointment at losing the Saturday game has gone, early departure from work secured, get back to Brighton asap and then let's have it! This is going to be a belter!

I was glad to hear from Murray how the players from last season are still smarting at how we finished the campaign. This more than anything I think will work in our favour tonight and for the remaining games after. A point is definitely a possibility tonight, three points would be fantastic and I would LOVE for us to get one over on Man Utd and their army of cocky armchair 'supporters' (the ones who go to games are usually decent value). So, as Sheebo said, 5-1 to them it is

Don't worry - the 'Knockaert is a flop thread' has already 100% guaranteed that we'll win 1-0 with Knocky scoring.

I will improve the odds of that happening by not putting my 1GBP on it.

As a kid growing up in the 1990s when these guys were THE biggest team in England, I genuinely never thought I'd see this day come.

They won't be able to handle Gross's pace now he's discovered under armour and lightweight boots , Dunk will score a worldy and Propper will introduce himself to the goal stats with a cheeky chip 2-0 .

Told you about that wakkybakky before , leave it

 

[Mackenzie]

United have some good players and they're higher in the table than Chelsea, Spurs and Liverpool but have somehow lost that aura of invincibility that they once had. I don't fear them and think/hope we can give them a hard game tonight. We should be able to pick our strongest team which helps.

Man United.....we wunt be druv!

Can't understand anyone not being bang up for tonight's game;

• Lovely weather - that late season feeling, going into a World Cup summer as well.
• Last home game of the season, our first Prem season.
• We look likely to stay up, and best case scenario we could even confirm it tonight.
• No expectations - nothing to lose.

...and chicken balti pies I think ?

Worth noting the obituary sequence will be on the big screens at 7.30pm.

Don't get me wrong, I'm up for it. The singing will be loud and proud. It's just that after 35 games it does seem like just another game.
To be honest, I'm putting more effort into the post match £3 pint drinking challenge.
But once I get to the ground my attitude will change.

 

[SeagullinExile]

My last night in Cambodia tonight. Gonna be a late one but hopefully worth it!

Wasn't thinking about this one at all but had a vivid dream that March scores the first and a late second sealed a 2-0 win with the chaos resulting meaning I couldn't work out who got the second

Off to the bookies

March won't start, so two late ones then

My mates friend owns the Lebanese restaurant in town and apparently a load of the Man U players were in there last night at about 11pm eating & drinking...lets hope they're taking this trip to "its only Brighton" lightly & have stuffed themselves silly with falafels, kebabs and beer!

 

[pasty]

As for the placards for shirts, rather than say don't have them how about every kid in the ground has one for every Albion player.

Got mine ready for tonight

Which restaurant out of interest?

If ever there was a game that suited Knockaert and Jose (and possibly Locadia) where they would be totally up for it and turn it on, a spring evening at home to Man Utd, under floodlights and on TV would be it. I am really excited about tonight, think it could be quite a special occasion.
