It is good for us to have a manager with such personality and charisma. He will learn our ways in quick time and adapt. His approach is great and more than anything, honest and entertaining. That is what it should be about. Wonderful appointment TB and PB!!
And according to the fake Swede, he's deserving of a £10K fine. As I say - muppet.

Don't remember what you are referring to tbh.
That will be your opinion. You think I'm shit, I think you're shit. Live with it.
Of course you'd say that, and I'm not alone. Perhaps you were stoned, as per- that seems to be your usual modus operandi.
Nah, you're dodgy...very dodgy.

Looks like we had some not particularly interesting PM conversation comparing Russia and the West 10 months ago.. let it go maybe?

Oh, have you deleted some? Bless.
You don't phase me in the slightest, and I find it hilarious that you're not man enough to spout your shit on the very forum of the team that your beloved manages.

It comes to something when the home team sets up against us and plays like they were the away team. The brutal dry-hump we gave them at the Amex clearly resonated. They feared us, and so set up to stifle and hit us on the break.

It nearly bloody worked as well, which is annoying. Leicester did not deserve that point. If VAR (ie Mason, who's brain was presumably starved of oxygen at birth) had actually done his job, and if that gilt-edged chance didn't get absolutely Sollyed into the retail park, then we'd have been 5th tonight.

A point on the road is never a bad thing, but despite the lateness of the (superb) equaliser, Leicester will know they got away with one there. Play that game 5 times and we'd win it 4 times comfortably.
I guess it comes with the territory in the top six. Doesn’t mean we can’t adapt as well.

There is definitely a trend. When teams are approaching it playing #teamslikebrighton we find it easier. When clubs/managers are desperate for a result and close it down - Villa, Leicester, we struggle to find the answer. It's a compliment in a way, but the cat is out of the bag now. We are regularly in the guardian with some hipster journalist talking about de zerbi and how we play. Our plan As brilliant. But I think de zerbi is smart enough to know he needs to be considering what plans B and C might be.

It's quite an amazing world really where we are slightly disappointed about an away draw at Leicester.

Strictly speaking it’s ‘sit on a cactus’ (singular). Cacti is the plural.
Thank you, wasn't sure about that. Here it is just kaktus (singular) and kaktusar (plural) but one of the foreign students I used to hang around with always said "cacti" about eveything cactus-related which made me believe that there was no such thing as a "cactus" in English. Good to learn.

No. JPVH was the wrong selection. Veltman or Webster would have been better alongside Dunk.
It just seems a bizarre decision to select him ahead of Velts or Webbo, excellent experienced defenders at this level. What on earth was JPVH doing for their second goal?

Not dissing him at all, I am sure he will come good under our brilliant coaching set up, but he wasn't ready.

2 + a mini selection of breads starter.

All portions were tiny. This point is being picked up online quite a bit, whereas they had had universal praise for many years.

To reiterate, we had been big fans, all the way back to their beginning in the late 90's. We're prepared to pay well for quality and a feeling of contentment.

I suspect the "I'm not going to watch a kick" brigade might just be having a few sneaky peeks out of morbid interest if nothing else. Especially if England manage to negotiate a knockout round or 2.

The lowliest team, why would anyone vote for a top six club? You want them to be paired against each other.

The only way he becomes ready is by playing some games in the PL.

You’ve mixed up a restaurants thread :lolol: .

Were you going to aggressively attack my experience of a much loved and expensive Brighton restaurant?

That speaks volumes doesn't it? Our standards and expectations have clearly risen.

On another thread, several people are lamenting the result as 2 points dropped. I think we're in danger of becoming the 'entitled' fans of other clubs that some on here are complaining about. Extraordinary times.
