Maybe no team should be too full of themselves. Even the #1 in the PL every year has a few bad matches. Let's just say when the Albion are in the top half that "it feels good to be in the top half" and know it could go south at anytime. But to make the Champions you first have to be in the top half.

From their other forum -

'Brighton are a top premier league team these days - no disgrace just better players than us. Including one of the best players in the world on current form in my opinion.'
Sorry, I think he'll have to narrow that down a bit more for me.

Tbf they had ravenelli and juninho at one point but that was about 15 years ago wasn't it !!!

Correction

25 years ago. Bloody hell. Scary.
And Emerson till his wife woke up and smelt the beans realising what a shithole Middlesbrough is

Bein 1 absolutely raving about Brighton. Went on for minutes, then ended by agreeing that Mac Allister would be in Newcastle, City or Inter Milan next season. Thanks for pi$$ing on our parade, gang, lol 🙄

Really hoping we can finish the season like a train. Maybe, just maybe, we might be able to hang on to a player or two for one extra season if we’re really banging on the door of something exceptional. It’s a long shot. Perhaps even a forlorn hope but isn’t hope what keeps us football fans coming back for more?

"Terrible really. Nearly all there goals were just so simple. Ripped through our field at leisure. Hate to say so but the quility has to be admired. To think we were there once."

Whilst I'm well aware where we've come from as a side, and that Middlesbrough have finished top half in the PL several times, but were they really playing great football to achieve it, or was it more like Burnley's football that achieved 7th place?
Lots of realistic opinions on there, not blaming ref's, VAR and all the other shite fans can blame rather than we were excellent

Absolutely superb - 3/4 fringe players at a bang in form championship team and we completely destroy them. Like 2018, it always makes me happy to win there after that muppet ruined the promotion game for us and their fans contained a lot of smug dickheads - karma.

I'm in agreement

I think the term they tend to use is fannying around at the back

Get used to it Adam it's what we do 😉
Watch and Enjoy
I still think there's a time a place for launch o'clock.
Just conceded, the keeper having a moment.

It's not as if it's a give away, the ball would be launched to Mitoma, Solly or (hopefully) Welbeck.

But yes, Adam put your big boy pants on and deal with it.
