Back in Brighton, getting crushed through the police barrier wasn't fun, horrible away day

He's back, after scraping a home draw against a team that dominated them. That's the equivalent of Scotland celebrating their single point in the Euros, while England went on to the final.
Celebrating VAR like they'd won the league.

Amateur hour.

Interesting watching the highlights back after getting home. Had no idea at the ground that MacAllister could easily have been sent off for his first half challenge or that the foul on Solly could equally easily have been a red for their player.

Never fails to flummox me.

Couple next to us, spent the whole of the first half trying to pair phones and sort social media, thankfully didn't appear for the second half.

You got tickets for one of our biggest games of the season, join in ffs.

If you're still sore at 'dropping two points', or angry at Sanchez, see this comment from a Palace fan on the BBC:

'As a Palace supporter, it pains me to say this…but Brighton were in a completely different league to us this afternoon. They dominated the game, should have won by 3 or 4 goals and played fast, dominating, attacking football. I would be the first to admit we were very lucky to get a draw today. Aside from our goalkeeper, I thought the rest of our team were average.'

That's worth repeating.

'Brighton were in a completely different league to us'.

Probably will be soon.

I don't think they hate us but they have been spectacularly awful (and by their own admission on a couple of occasions) against us recently. Obviously there's no bias against us but they really are truly truly inept.
I'm beginning to wonder if the Asian betting syndicates have got to the var officials. There has to be an explanation for their awful decisions. Palace not losing to Brighton today would've been a big money maker
There is no reasonable explanation for drawing the offside line from the wrongdefender.
