After such an Herculean effort for no reward long drive home then only three days recovery before what is the most important game of the season so far only hope they have enough to left in the tank

We coped pretty well with Saturday-Tuesday last year, Palace also played today, it'll be alright.

On 5.55 pm Euston train reflecting (mentally banging on the table really ) how did we not get anything out of that game. Yes, the goal that shouldn't have been but all those fired in crosses from Knockaert that came to nothing. Agh.

A draw would have been a fair result. The players should have gained a lot of confidence from that performance though.

It's nice to feel welcomed amongst Albion fans! NSC is an excellent community, and I've immensely enjoyed being here and supporting the club.

I hope one day in the reasonably near future I'll be able to make it Brighton/Sussex and to a match at the Amex. I've never been to the UK, but there's so much I want to see and do over your way (and since following the Albion, talking to you nice folks, and doing my research on the area, Sussex is at the top of that list!). I'll be in Europe in September to attend to family affairs, and although it's a bit of a long shot, I would absolutely love to find a way to make it happen.

Europe to Brighton is easy and September is in the football season.

Not a long shot at all.

Frustrating but we also had 3 or 4 chances early on against Stoke.
You have to convert at least one of those chances or one way or another you will get punished in this league.
Great effort today and for the 2nd game in a row we have been let down by a guessing linesman.
It was not a corner but there is no way the linesman could be 100% sure so in that case they give goal kicks just in case anything comes from the corner.
2nd game in a row that my piss has boiled.

Never a corner on the stream I watched. They slowed it right up I saw nothing and neither did they although they didn't dwell on it so If it was then so be it. Still not sure it should of stood reference the Lukaku incident but these things happen especially away at Old Trafford.

Did you see it? From the multiple replays from different angles it was 100% not a corner.

I haven't seen it but someone told me it was a corner based on the replays they'd seen. Anyone got a video?

It was a corner, simply because Solly has said he touched it last. Never looked a corner to me either but it was. Amazing that the lino and ref can make one of the most incredible calls of the season seeing March touch that ball last but seconds later ignore Lukaku doing his best annoyed donkey impression.

Be warned though, September is also 'international break' season.

Well worth checking out those dates.

We were fantastic. Looking forward to City game so I meet some fans from Manchester.

Queued for the train with plastics from Surrey. Yep Surrey.

Are they plastics if they go to old Trafford every week to support their team? If so, then I know a lot of brighton fans living up north who travel to brighton to see their team...@el president...seemly according to Clapham gull, you are a plastic...

If it is tongue in cheek then I apologise, if it is not then it is pathetic.
