Brighton & Hove Albion - Watford FC *** Official Match Thread ***

[Muzzy]

Don't know whether to go or not. Manflu is trying to make me stay home for this one.
I'm taking the academy kids to Stoke tomorrow so think I should swerve this one and get myself right.

 

[Bakero]

2-0. Lita and Buckley, in that order.

 

[Brighton Breezy]

Top two sides in the division as far as pass completion rate.

Should hopefully see a good game of football. Hopefully.

 

[nwgull]

Surprised that the exchanges still have us as slight favourites. Not confident and have had to back against us for the first time this year, also got a couple of quid on a penalty being awarded as we've not had one for us since that arctic night in Barnsley last season!!

Won't the weather effect things, I just saw a news bulletin about the weather in England and they showed the Palace Pier and large waves crashing against the groins.
That was a nice surprise.

Oops, groynes I mean.

The punter on for a £1,000,000 payout tonight played 34,992 x £1 lines on the #FootballJackpot this week! Will the monster gamble pay off?

Tonight could see our first #FootballJackpot millionaire! One punter goes into the Brighton v Watford game needing Watford or a Draw for £1m

We could get some luck tonight for a change then.

Bookies' luck is the best luck to have on your side.

My warped thinking too!

Taking my 5yo son for his first experience of late night footie tonight as its half-term. Hot flask, ipad and plenty of food are in order I think, and tbh if we are down by a few goals by half-time we may both cheer our loadest for a great Albion comeback. Got to support your team when they're behind!

Come on the Albion.

SURELY he has to lump on us tonight.

I shall be watching in the local pub, any other fans in Teesside give me a shout

Here's hoping for the 3 points, come on you Seagulls!!!

 

[glasfryn]

Brighton 0-1 Watford
Watford to take an early lead.
Barnes equalising in the second half.

surely that would be 1-1

 

[Eggmundo]

I've got 2 tickets, and that was expensive enough

Pah! It's tickets sold not bums on seats. "We all need to go a little bit further"

 

[blue2]

Not feeling very positive about this game

 

[Icy Gull]

Will this generally downbeat and defeatist attitude from so many translate into a subdued Amex atmosphere tonight? Wouldn't do the team any favours if it does.

Hope not as we're on Sky.

I'm hopeful that'll help create a 'nothing to lose' type atmosphere.

 

[TSB]

Concerned as to karma from laughing at palace last monday.

 

[easynow]

45 - 0 to Brighton. Half time.

An enforced day of "working" from home has given me the chance to get drinking early. That might help. Unless I'm the only one, in which case I might be the legless one being dragged out by stewards in front of crowds of sober disapproving faces.
