[Taybha]

Anybody going to this ? , i shall hopefully be partaking in what should be a cracker and could swing this seasons title our way with a win and you won't even have to pay to get in !

Brighton & Hove Albion fans can secure free tickets for Monday night’s Premier League 2 Division 1 showdown against Everton at Goodison Park, kick-off 7pm, as Simon Rusk’s under-23 side look to keep their title hopes alive.

The Seagulls sit three points behind the Toffees in second position with two games remaining, and if Rusk’s team avoid defeat in Merseyside, the race for the PL2 crown will extend to the final game of the season.

Victory for Albion would move them level on points with Everton, but Rusk’s team currently find themselves five goals behind the league leaders on goal difference, following eight unbeaten matches in the PL2.

Supporters will be seated in the Park Stand for Monday night’s game, and free tickets can be booked in advance on Everton’s website .

Whatever hapens the U23s have had a fantastic first season in the top flight .

Stanley park on Walton Lane should be fine and it's free i think .

Wasting nine hours traveling to the Amex at the weekend has made my mind up I’m afraid. I won’t be bothering to go.

Would it not just be ironic if the U23's won PL2 while the first team squad got relegated from PL1 .... Everton are a strong side and would be a real marker if we can beat them and snatch a last gasp PL2 title though I expect most Albion supporters would sacrifice that for PL1 survival.

Hopefully it will be streamed somewhere for us to watch 'live' as doubt many could get to the game tonight.

Well the positive would be some of these very talented lads would get to play more football, and Blooms academy project would get more traction, keeping some of the experienced players and blending in a mixture of the younger ones could be an exciting prospect for us.

Very welcome returns after injury issues for Ben Hall and Steven Alzate, both on the subs bench:-

1-0 Everton.

 

[El Turi]

Good goal although he shrugged off Molumby quite easily.

 

[Miami Seagull]

Couple of great chances to equalize.

 

[Uter]

Commentators getting on my nerves. Already going on and on about lifting the trophy as if it's a foregone conclusion.

The wingers seem to love taking on the full backs, ours seem to like to stop and pass back.
Sounds familiar
