FA Cup 3rd Round: Brentford vs Brighton and Hove Albion

[fleet]

Dull but winnable.

Where have you been this season!

 

[GT49er]

When will the tickets go on sale?? Hopefully they won't be to expensive.

Lidl's, next Tuesday?

The one plus is that if SH is still manager it will give us a chance to show we have improved, if we have.

 

[Prince Monolulu]

Is it POTG? How many tickets was their?

 

[Vegas Seagull]

Tony's favourite team...
Nice to the the Dover match being described officially on at the BBC2 draw as a 'non league' tie...nailed it

 

[Bruntburger]

Is it POTG? How many tickets was their?

Sold out already. Dulux are sending their entire workforce to prove there's more boring things in life than watching paint dry.
Should be an inspiration to them !

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Can we just send the development squad, let the first team concentrate on the league?

Nah. Let the Development Squad have a go at the league and send the first team to Brentford, to be given a lesson in how to perform better than anyone expects.

On first reflection it's somewhat under-whelming but thinking about it then it could be the sort of tie we need. We need all the games we can against teams at our level. Nobody wants us to go down and love Sami or not (I'm in the not camp) if he's still here, it might be the game that he gets lucky with his tinkering and finds a winning formation/system which we'll then have a better idea of if its been a true test.

Then on the other hand we ge spanked 5-0 and it's the final nail in the coffin!

 

[portslade seagull]

I bet there's a lot of teams who would fancy us ATM.

Every single one b4 the draw was made I would guess as we are like a car crash every match.

 

[brakespear]

I think that's quite a good draw. Another day up town. The ground with a pub on each corner.

The problem people have on here is that they worry about the actual game and winning......... Pack it in.

This. It's the FA Cup, complain about losing afterwards if that's the way it turns out.

 

[ruthers]

where's Garry Nelson when you need him!

One of my earliest away days. Will never forget that thunderbolt

Palace will feel at home in the dump that is Dover.When Dover Knocked us out the Cup in 2010 we got 2000 tickets for the away end ,it's not a bad ground TBF.

 

[theboybilly]

Brilliant draw if you ask me. Brentford is a favourite away day. I'm just pleased we avoided a Premier League side, too much hassle.

 

[Tony Meolas Loan Spell]

Bollocks to that. Im only going if we have changed the manager by then.

 

[essexeagle]

Dover or Worcester away

Snigger!!! We even ruined this for you!

 

[OzMike]

Brentford Away

Oh well, better concentrate on the league then.

 

[del strangefish]

Best Season Ever !
