Brighton & Hove Albion vs Portsmouth FA Cup 3rd Round ***Official Thread***

[algie]

I see we are still after Harley.I wonder if we are waiting on this result? If we win we get 67k plus the chance of a big draw so we can improve our offer.

Again if we win i see that we won't be playing Daggers again.Nice to have to play them twice towards the end of the season.We really need to add a couple of players if we get through as the fixture pile up looks quite bad.

Hope we don't go to a replay and then win that

snap i would like to get arsenal away next round and get knocked out

 

[severnside gull]

a replay would be a disaster both in terms of having to play an extra match and because of the inevitability of not being able to get our share of the gate out of Portsmouth. A win today.......a good away draw against top notch opposition with the promise of a big payday.....then knocked out and focus on promotion.

Would suit me just fine

They might not be in it!

What do you mean we wouldn't get our share of the money from a replay. Oh yeah it's Portsmouth the cheating scum who won't even pay charities and schools etc. a couple thousand but will now sign players to ten times this a week, for probably millions of pounds in the first place! Not to mention paying their existing players prem wages rather than release them on free's to join other clubs and sign players to contracts they could afford. 2-1 win

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

A replay is out of the question , 20p in the £ for the share of the gate revenue

 

[HastingsSeagull]

Oh and we will attack, if they are attacking too it will be perfect for us as we control the ball only after looking to counter attack initially. If they're piling forward we will knock a couple past them and then play keep ball.

Dicker both starting AND on the bench?

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

No OGH on the bench

 

[Colossal Squid]

I thought the radio said Bridcutt kept Kishishev out of the starting line up??

 

[Colossal Squid]

Scrap that, they've just corrected themselves. Stupid BBC Sussex.

Strong Pompey line up. Very strong in fact. This'll be a test

 

[Mackenzie]

I think Sparrow starts and Dicker on the bench.

 

[Derbyshire Seagull]

You've got Dicker in there as a starter and on the bench??

Portsmouth's team looks a lot stronger than I was expecting/hoping.

Sorry just took the teams off the Argus site.....didn't look at them properly

 

[My Name Is Gully]

Anyone know where I can listen on line for free?
Player isn't working for me.

Currently using BBC Radio Solent (via player but you might be able to pick them up on FM) - not sure if whole match commentary here as they are also discussing Saints/Blackpool.

 

[the right footed denilson]

Where's Greer? Surprised Bridcutt isn't playing.

 

[severnside gull]

Portsmouth's side isn't a surprise as - because they continue to try to cheat their way out of financial ruin -it is the only side they can pick

I so hope Elphick has a good game - he needs it and against the strongest front line he will have faced

 

[ds4000]

Dicker is good enough to run the midfield and have a sit on the bench!
