Exeter City v Brighton and Hove Albion “Official match thread”

[glasfryn]

no Dutchman
no Scotsman
so one of the other two keepers in goal

 

[Rookie]

New keeper playing, Kuipers still out Smith 'unwell'

 

[murraymints4brighton]

a) Why are we favourites?

b) How many games have we won since you decided to become the official starter of official matchday threads?

c) Where's the 'FC's?

d) Where's the asterisks?

e) Why am I so negative today?

f) Is my negativity a sign that things will work out and someone will come in after the game and quote this and point and laugh at me?

Started doing them at the Wycombe replay so we have won 2 and lost 3 so far with a win percentage of 40% when I have been doing them. A win today and it will be 50/50.

Very interesting. I am not entirely sure Brezovan can play as he is on trial? Mitch Walker or Josh Pelling will probably come in.

I fancy us today, things have ot go right at some point and I reckon today is the day.

But, in the league? Today is a league game, not a cup came...

M'eh, whatever, I always seem to be optimistic before losses, and frequently our wins coincide with my negativity. Ignore me.

 

[Peter Grummit]

No McNulty apparently.

 

[Rookie]

20 minutes till kick off and no full team news

 

[GT49er]

Brezovan in goal, Pelling on the bench - I thought Kuipers was supposed to be fit?

No starting place for McNulty, Navarro in midfield again..................

20 Crofts
26 Bennett

[the right footed denilson]

Argus have it as Brezovan, Hoyte, El Abd, Tunn, Elph, Crofts, Dicker, Navarro, Bennet, Forster, Murray.
Jamie Smith on bench.

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

I think GP sees Navarro as a defensive option first and foremost. Stop them getting at our back four and trust our front men to get the goals. Would be great to see Bennett have another good game - has seemed a bit flat recently.

 

[Beach Hut]

Let's hope Navarro has his shooting boots on today.

 

[brightonmad999]

i dont understand what poyet sees in Navarro i think hes rubbish and shouldnt be starting

 

[Don Tmatter]

Virgo must be spitting pips.........
good to see young Smith in the squad again

 

[Trigger]

So are we effectively playing with 10 men yet again due to Bennett having to play out of position to bail El Abd out as a second left back?

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

Jimmy Mac must be close to full fitness now.

 

[SULLY COULDNT SHOOT]

Afternoon all!!!! Well thats a surprise.... Brezovan in goal and neither Smith nor Kuipers on the bench. Really hope this works.....

Come on the Albion!!!!!

Yet more written Shit.


It is part of the duties of both wide men to help out their respective full back that is why they are called MIDfield men. It just so happens that Bennett's speed show up his worth more so than anybody else.
