Driving the 15hrs to Nova Scotia for Xmas today. Hoping to be able to get some text updates in!

Never know might actually give us a slight advantage. We are used to playing in bloody awful weather at the Amex.

Think we were 2-0 up quite early on as several of their fans left in disgust...........

And yes, Prosser completely ruined that game

Remember the game well. The only time I have seen a ref pat a player on the back for scoring a goal!

I really don't believe it, the daft buggers are watering the pitch

Wow...one I actually predicted...

Don’t know if that’s a good or a bad thing.

Connolly return makes that bench so much stronger and more balanced.

 

[Megazone]

I didn't realise how many ex Albion Sheffield United have.

Norwood
Baldock
Freeman
Henderson
Stevens
Robinson

Any others?

 

[Two Professors]

That's got to be our strongest XI right there.

What a strong bench too.

I'd be quite happy for the bench to be in the starting line-up (with some dropping to the bench,of course).Albion have never been stronger.

Am I being whooshed?

 

[Swansman]

Nice, simple line-up.

Oli starting for Sheffield.. still love that boy. Glad Potter didn't bring him to Brighton though as his lifestyle is going to yuck him over eventually.

 

[Hugo Rune]

What a strong bench too.

Four of our top performers from last season keeping it nice and warm:

Murray
Duffy
Bernardo
Bissouma

Just googled it and it turns out it's not the same Gary Stevens we had.

Are you sure they're not just natural springs?

 

[Two Professors]

Think Everton must be waiting for Boxing Day.

Bissouma had a very strong game against Palarse (apart from the the constant shooting when better options were available) and can count himself unfortunate not to start. Great replacement and good to see him perform and push for a central midfield berth. Looking forward to this one, got us down as 3-1. UTA.
