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

[Insel affe]

Typical, talk shite giving it that Chelsea were so poor tonight because of the fall out of the super league. It's played on their minds all night!!

Bollox, they were nullified by a hard working team that actually created the best chances,simple.

One of the reasons why I wish not just six teams buggered off, sick of all this patting themselves on the back for stopping this break away league.

No, the threat of sanctions and being kicked out of the premier league and uefa/fifa changed their minds.

Why? WHY?!! This is what peeves me off about some Brighton fans, always settling for less. Why not believe we can go there and win? Why not get frustrated by missing golden chances late on to win all three points? West Brom put FIVE (FIVE!!) past them! Not saying we should and could follow that but when are we ever going to pull that sort of result off when fans are just so grateful for a nil nil all the time? Get out the drip tray and starting drinking man! And most disappointing of all tonight is we had the perfect chance to add the Cherry to the biggest footballing story ever. But no, we trot out another goalless feast and can’t hit a cows arse again with the worlds biggest banjo. So so so frustrating. Brighton and Bloody Hove Albion. Disappointing since 1901. Why win games when you can draw your way to safety (and your fans will be cock a hoop with). And if anybody says we’re still learning...

Following and been disappointed with us since 1901? Time to take a break.

Some can not let go about CH’s sacking, it’s pathetic. Only a complete moron could refuse to see the changes since GP arrived here

Not sure its that much about GP in this case. More about the philosophy of this "portlock seagull" - he just cant stand it when people are happy with what they got (like a point against Chelsea), because it makes a bitter man like him very jealous.

 

[Icy Gull]

But he got more against Palace - go figure.

We had 10 behind the ball every time we lost it, Chelsea were clueless. Then broke in numbers when we got it, even better in the second half [emoji2]

It was a magnificent tactical performance - I’d even go as far as saying that was one of our best performances. Brilliant.

I really don’t understand why you think [MENTION=616]Guinness Boy[/MENTION] was being offensive - thought it was a compliment [emoji2]

His inability to accept that we are now a good side is offensive to me Why not say “that was a great performance “ rather than “ how Hughtonesque” it was much better than that, we competed as equals and could have won. That NEVER happened under CH against a top 4 club

 

[Weststander]

But with a £951m squad of internationals to pick from.[/QUOT E]

Yeah give you that but they are overpaid superstars in their eyes who get very tired after 90mins

25 top players to pick a starting 11 from.

ManC and Chelsea have a colossal advantage over everyone else.

Carragher’s drunk.

 

[The Fits]

Also Portlock is in the US isn't it?
Can we just have a blanket ban of Yanks in football?

 

[Insel affe]

God, not a word about the match yet, god this boring....
I don’t care....

 

[Insel affe]

Carragher’s drunk.

It’s just his accent fella

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

I must have missed 11 men behind the ball in that performance

IMO we competed as equals, I never saw that from CH against Chelsea and results under GP back that up. How many points did CH get against Chelsea?

This.

A contest of equals.

I'm satisfied.

Nah I know Scousers. He’s a bit half cut. It’s all good.

Was waiting for post match stuff but got bored of the ESL talk so turned it off.

We had the best two chances and we were better than them.

There has to be someone, Barnes has gone, I have never been able to work it out, especially as both are good players and work or worked very hard for the team and club.
Lazy players that don't put in any effort, I could understand.

 

[Guinness Boy]

We had the best chances and could have won, we never looked like losing but [MENTION=616]Guinness Boy[/MENTION] gets all sarcy about a good Albion performance. Not harsh at all imo. It pisses me off that GP gets absolutely no credit from some so called Albion fans

Like I said several posts earlier it wasn’t a criticism. I’m delighted we got a point at Stamford Bridge. But it wasn’t exactly the Charge of the Light Brigade which is what you’ve constantly said you enjoy.

Man Utd, Arsenal. It really did, don’t join the history rewrite club. We battered Utd.

It was better than great tonight though for me....

I couldn’t believe the 35% possession, as I felt we were comfortable....

All that was missing was a goal.

Personally now more interested in the difference of taste in art between Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville.

Carragher appears to gone full on shopping centre family portrait whilst Neville has bought his from some students at Manchester Polytechnic.

Jamie - Laminate goes on the floor mate, not the walls.

Not for him......easier to wipe the gob off.

It goes way beyond Portlock.

Many posters, some are very open about, still think CH’s sacking was a disgrace and that he’d being doing just as well as GP, if not better, if he was given Maupay, Lamptey, Webster, Lallana, Welbeck and Trossard.

That anger should be directed to the Board, but for some odd reason, instead those posters think GP’s all smoke and mirrors.

Not me btw!

This.

We stopped being plucky some time ago. Now we are just a bit goal shy.

If we'd got something agin Chelski under CH it would have been backs against the wall pluckytastic.

We have moved on from that. Week in week out. Fact.
