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

[PeterOut]

Damn - my better half has just tested positive for Covid
Two tickets for East Upper, close to halfway line (great view) just gone up on the exchange.
Just be aware that it is a cauldron of noise up there, you may need ear defenders

 

[Berty23]

What time do we reckon that Danny Ings will get his customary goal against us?

He always gets at least 1 against us, it’s in the Laws of Football.

I was going to ask this. You beat me to it. I wonder how many he has actually scored although it feels like every sodding time.

Need a win today lads after last 2 premier league games! West Ham aren't a bad side despite their lowly position. Going for a 2 nil for the seagulls.

 

[Oh_aye]

From a West Ham site: 'the last time we beat this lot they were know as 'The Chicks''

 

[Bozza]

I was going to ask this. You beat me to it. I wonder how many he has actually scored although it feels like every sodding time.

I've just been through his games against us.

He's scored in 4 of 14 games against us, although all goals have come in the last 8 fixtures

More worryingly, he's not lost to the Albion in the last 10 times he has faced us, over the course of nearly 10 years.

So excited

were loose

 

[Dawn Korus]

West Ham to win and Ings to score 17/2 on sky.

Fill your boots

 

[Guinness Boy]

Ings is a worry. Before they signed him I'd have been expecting three points. I know that @Bozza put those stats up but the two goals in November are still haunting me a little.

In other news, will "tracksuit from Matalan" be there?

 

[Swansman]

They've been garbage nearly every time I've seen them this season. Think going out in the Europa League semi final last season really took a lot of energy and that this season would always be a struggle, still a bit surprised to see them that poor though.

Expect the boys to win it today. Comfortably. 2-0 or 3-0.

Cmon chaps it’s my 70th birthday today and my brother supports WHU - a win would be a great birthday present. ️️
Any win will do - but I’ve predicted 2-0

Happy birthday sir.

Everything screams loss here with the stats, their record against us in recent times, our league positions etc.

[Ooh it’s a corner]

Trains from B Hill, Hassocks etc are experiencing long delays due to some signalling probs apparently

Yes there's carnage on the London lines; be a shame if it reduces the number of fat middle aged Essex geezers wearing cock-bonnets crossing their arms and screaming "Irons!" at me on the Falmer train...

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

Train has finally arrived and none spotted in my carriage. I think they’re looking for you @Faoilean!

The usual pre match Wets Sham visit to Southwick for a few drinks. Couple of coaches parked outside. Good money maker for the pub
