[Albion] Burnley vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Not a good start at all, they’re cutting through us with ease.

Sooner this season is over, the better

 

[AmexRuislip]

That's season over for Pervis

This don't help

 

[Normandy seagull]

Unpopular opinion- To be honest Pervis going off may not be a bad thing! He’s looked awful recently

 

[raymondo]

Getting passed through with ease. Need to calm ourselves down

Thank goodness we've got our best team out

 

[Washie]

Thank goodness we've got our best team out

The injury, while being absolutely shit, may help. It stopped Burnley's momentum and allowed us to regroup.

 

[Northstander]

Ominously, looking like standard Burnley v Brighton game

 

[Normandy seagull]

And Hoops is in charge- defeat incoming!

 

[macbeth]

should see if brentford’s injury investigators can pop over once they’ve finished there

 

[fruitnveg]

This is not going to end well.

 

[perth seagull]

Another lucky escape

 

[US Seagull]

Got away with another one there. That was on a plate for Burnley

 

[Hendrax]

Let off there.

 

[raymondo]

So that’s 10 players now f***ed

Did I read we've hired the Arsenal squad physical fitness coach or something... he's got his work cut out to turn round our fitness (or it's all bad luck) problems.

 

[oldboyroy]

Burnley really should be 1 up

 

[The Fits]

Crikey we've been abysmal for a long time now. Burnley look a vastly superior team footballing wise so far.

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

How was he missed that?! Massively got away with that one!

Such a poor start. Come on boys, wake up!

 

[Washie]

That was a very poor free kick

 

[Zeberdi]

The injury, while being absolutely shit, may help. It stopped Burnley's momentum and allowed us to regroup.

A momentary advantage in one game doesn’t merit one of our players being out possibly until the end of the season if it’s an Achilles injury - not with so many injuries we already have - I can’t see any good in that

 

[GT49er]

Just switched on Radio Sussex commentary - first thing I hear is free kick in a promising position for Brighton; Gross takes it. Straight to a Burnley head.

Isn't there anybody else who can take free kicks and corners? Good player though he is - and absolutely vital to us in many ways - but sometimes it almost feels like dropping him would be good, just for the sake of forcing the team to let somebody else take the set-pieces!

Looks like the lads are already on their holly bobs.
