[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Tottenham Hotspur *** Official Match Thread ***

[essbee1]

A routine 2-1 away win or a 1-2 home win I think.

 

[portlock seagull]

Here we go again,I am expecting us to dominate possession wise without actually hurting Spurs, miss a couple of golden opportunities to score, get hit by a couple of sucker punches and be gallant losers once again,still we take the positives away from the game,learn from our mistakes and move on....again....plucky little ol' Brighton playing some great football but lacking a cutting edge....ho hum! I really hope I am wrong!!

How have you managed to see the game already? When was the premiere, like there is with films?

It is just a wild guess really...

 

[JC Footy Genius]

I'm quite frankly appalled at all the weary cynicism and sarcastic comments that frequent the early pages of matchday threads .... one day, ONE DAY we will see a performance and result to knock our socks off! Perhaps* today's that day!!!






























* Unlikely

 

[BRIGHT ON Q]

Normally pessimistic about our chances but got a good feeling about today.

 

[Thompson720]

Best time to play Spurs I think with certain players missing

Going 1-0 Albion, early goal but heavy defending from then on

 

[Wellesley]

Oh, seems we are at home too, late fixture change perhaps

Armchair supporters.

 

[Birdie Boy]

I wasn't that confident until this morning. I'm putting my lucky pj's on.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

I'm another who is feeling surprisingly confident. I expect to wake up tomorrow and see a positive result for the Albion(us, not west brom...).

 

[Taybha]

Please play Connolly, I want him to make Aldowierdo cry again ! COYB .

I woke up same! Then read this thread and reality bites

 

[A1X]

Time to chalk up another one onto our "no home wins" run tonight methinks

No Kane is a huge bonus. We will make shed load of chances, get a pen and draw 1-1. People here forget, we’re not winning enough true, but we’re not losing much either.

Also would like to see Aaron feature to head **** any of the Spurs players who faced him last season.

Interestingly Spurs fans aren’t confident.

 

[Charity Shield 1910]

A draw of some sort, 0-0 or maybe a couple of goals from "contact" inside the box which apparently now results in a penalty, so 1-1.

 

[WhingForPresident]

I've got a good feeling about tonight for some reason.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

I'm normally a very upbeat person, but if we can scav a draw out of this one it'll be a good result

I just want us to win early and win big only to shut the *doom pessimists * on here ruining yet another match day thread with incessant criticism of our players who are trying their level best and undermining our manager at every opportunity.
We are supposedly 'supporters' so let's support whether we win, lose or draw, plenty of time at the end of the season for recriminations.
*Was going to use the phrase doom mongers but didn't want to be accused of using derogatory terms to fellow ' supporters'.
Now come in the team let's get the points we deserve or the three points we maybe don't really deserve, we've had more than our share of misfortune, let today be the day we win deservedly or not. UTA.

Interesting watching MoTD last night with their stat about goals and points. Essentially, Kane’s goals have led to the highest percentage of points gained by a single player of any Premier League team (the next striker earning most of his team’s point’s is Wilson at Newcastle unsurprisingly).

Whilst Spurs still have the potential to smash us off the park (Bale could have a blinder etc), I think Mourinho will set defensive to hit us on the break and will rely on us missing our big chances; this might be the match we don’t. I’m confident.

3 points. No excuses.
