BUTTERBALL
East Stand Brighton Boyz
Deserves it's own thread. Absolutely took the p out of the Wolves defence......shame it didn't result in a goal but the standing ovation was fully merited. A magician.
Knockaert in the 61st minute....

Absolutely, such a great player to watch and I just hope he doesn't pick up a yellow at Wigan on Saturday as we could really do with him for the Norwich game.
Also a few minutes later he was having a word in to the ear of one of the ball boys just in front of the East stand. I wonder what that was about?

Were any of the bookings tonight for dissent ? - I too hope he doesn't miss the Norwich game

Dont think they were but could have understood Dunk doing so but didnt need to.
I love the way he saves his very very best for when he's playing in front of me. 
The ball boy was very keen to give AK the ball for the subsequent corner.
AK, somewhat puffed, gestured for him to slow down, the ball boy kept hold of the ball.
Then as Knocky took the ball from him, he tentatively held the boy, whispered sweetly through heavy breaths in his Gallic brogue into his ear, and 5000 men wished they were 12 again.

We were discussing how Knockeart was a symbol of how much the game has changed. Imagine him showboating like that against some of the left backs of the eighties and nineties, players like Julian Dicks, Pat Van Den Hauwe or Stuart Pearce. He would have been kicked four foot in air in the first half!

I was right on the other side, but even so it was a joy to see Knocky charging in one direction one moment, then all of a sudden he's charging in the other direction with the defender on his backside.
I also thought Bruno's skills on occasion last night could only be described as audacious.

As opposed to suicidal on Saturday
Maybe it's a fine line! At one point yesterday in the second half, the ball was in the air heading towards our goal with Bruno and an attacker after it. Bruno just deftly touched it first over the attacker's head and calmly came out in the other direction. Masterful.

Aspinall AGAIN on point with his commentary last night.
"He's, sent him outside. He's had to pay to get back in Johnny!"

The Little Magician really taking things to another level this season. ASTOUNDING wizardry!
That's good to hear because we realised that needed to be and was being addressed

We need a compilation of all his "standing ovation" moments from this and last season (a la Vicente) - anybody ?
Pretty sure he was saying something along the lines of no need to rush when we're ahead.
