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

[chaileyjem]

A win puts us on 30 points at the half way stage. We had 31 after 19 last season.

 

[um bongo molongo]

Any chance we can agree with Spurs to make this 5 a side?

Never forget or forgive this. 1978 in the 2nd Division. 91 arrests and 83 injured. Game held up for 14 minutes and then a further 4 when Spurs fans invaded the pitch and North Stand. I was 11 years old, watching from the West Stand and have hated them ever since. Oh yeah, we put them to the sword and won 3-1!

I remember that day, a dog handler was running around the pitch and slipped. The dog jumped into the Spurs crowd. He/she had a good time chomping at a few fans. Good!

Cheating twats.

Really excited about tonight, actually…

A team that scores in every game v a team that concedes in every game. I wouldn't be surpised if those runs come to an end today. Ain't that the way football often goes?

But I'm also fully expecting a hammering.

were loose

DEFIANTLY.

Must be mad trying to get to the Amex today on trains - cancellations and delays all over the place and no trains running from Cambridge unless you want 2 hrs on a replacement bus. Having to travel North to Peterborough an extra 2 hrs journey on top of already 3 hour journey just to pick up a Thameslink train to Falmer . Packed in like a sardines, standing room only.

UTA eh!

Passing through lots of Tottenham fan areas too on that Thameslink

 

[Oh_aye]

I now won't be able to go having sprained / fractured my ankle last night.

Have listed my ST in WU block F if anyone is interested.

Hang on, the injury crisis is extending to supporters now?!

Anyway, be well soon.

Yaay! I usually put on my Albion scarf once I get to Finsbury Park to annoy any locals and a hey ho to oppo supporters travelling down.

It's a Thursday. We've been known to keep a clean sheet on a Thursday.

And the award for "biggest straw clutched in 2023" goes to... ME!!!

 

[Triggaaar]

How the **** are we favourites?

 

[Mustafa II]

Haven't felt this pessimistic about a match for some time.

Our injury crisis is just too much. There will be players playing today out of position and/or are in need of a rest, but can't.

But, with a little bit of luck we can make it through the night.

On a full size pitch?

 

[Zeberdi]

Any chance we can agree with Spurs to make this 5 a side?

And just for 45 minutes?

 

[Sid and the Sharknados]

And just for 45 minutes?

And we'll only play the 2nd 45min, not the 1st.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

How the **** are we favourites?

We're unbeaten at home for seven games and Tottingham have an injured player
