[Albion] Norwich City vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[London Irish]

Now at last we can concentrate on what we do best. Yelling at the board to buy a ****ing striker

 

[Perfidious Albion]

Three points in the bag , we needed that before the hard games to come. However, the stats show Norwich had more possession, more shots....Warren Aspinal just said , “ a better side would have battered us”

To avoid being in an annual relegation battle we need more quality up front. .... I may be old fashioned but I would love to see a big bold brave ( probably Black ) centre forward who can shoot and head the ball

 

[Sussexscots]

Never likely to be an enjoyable watch but what the hell.....

Yassss! Get in ya DANCER!
Seven points from four fixtures. Pleased/more please!

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Tough watch, but it was must win for them and a must not lose for us.
Was never going to be pretty.

Job done.

 

[Seagull kimchi]

Job done - 'nuff bother.

Not a classic, but we held our nerve. Norwich offered little and we defended well when we needed to, pounced at just the right time in the game. Surely a 4th PL season awaits, great work all round.

 

[Shooting Star]

Bloody brilliant. Lamptey awesome and what a beautiful goal!

 

[The Fits]

Bissouma good again- really emerging as a genuine midfield talent.

 

[Icy Gull]

Reading this thread, lets just hope PL stadiums remain empty for next season

Not being an Albion fan you almost certainly don’t realise that we never do things the easy way. If we were a goal down and chasing a game we’d almost certainly be hit on the break and 2-0 down. Whoever we have as manager doesn’t seem able to get the Albion to do this.

No complaints from me but feck me that was stressful and I love that Norwich goal post

More possession? How many times do we get told we had more but then get criticised
More shots ..but only one on target!

We got three points ..because we put the ball in the net

 

[Change at Barnham]

The difference that has made to my mental health for the next several weeks is immeasurable.
Thank you lads.

 

[Cypriot-Seagull]

Yeah poor quality game but at this stage WHO CARES job done.
Probably play better now the pressure is kinda gone

 

[Joey Jo Jo Jr. Shabadoo]

The performance wasn't important today, the result was. Vital and huge 3 points today, piles the pressure on the clubs below us and 3 of them are against traditional big 6 sides in this round of matches. A big step, and there is now a scenario where winning against Liverpool will confirm our PL status.

I guess the next objective is to finish above palace.......

I hated it 3 years ago, it owes us that [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

Not the greatest game. Quality goal but the midfield seemed sluggish today

In fairness the Norwich woodwork owes us after the last game there.

Edit: beaten to it ^^

 

[lawros left foot]

The one bit of class in the entire game, and we scored. Awful game, pretty awful performance, great result.


Up the Albion!!

 

[Thompson720]

Job done. Wasn't pretty, virtually safe, especially if results again go our way. We move to the next one!

Lamptey and the post - MotM

Since lockdown we've played well for about 60 minutes in total. We've got 7 points in 4 games. That bodes very well for next season.
