Barber slightly concerned about revenge attacks on Roma fans.

I'm glad they frog marched the UEFA Official down to the area where things were being thrown to be reported.

I'm glad we have Barber at times, sensible chap

"if he (RDZ) has asked Tony a couple of times, he's asked me 100 times". I recall him saying that both PB and TB love being pushed by RDZ in respect of aspirations as that's only a positive for the club - what would they/we rather have - a manager pushing all the time or a manager content with his lot?

Revenge attacks? I mean, for what, how why would anyone supporting the Albion even remotely think that way?!! If you do, please stay away and finish your homework instead.

Plenty of nutters about. I stood by the Roma fans and some of our fans just spent the whole game goading them. Most of them skinny streaks of piss. One kid stood on the seat offering them outside then got hit by a lighter and sheepishly went to the other end away from their fans there will be plenty looking for trouble I would imagine when they come to Brighton

Reminded me of Marseille a bit .... More nutters than normal. Paul samrah was near me and when dunk made the mistake he even completely lost his mind going into a rage !!!

Love Martin K has one of those biro multi colour pens!! Who still has those?!! Not seen since mid 80s double geography

He was very rational about it and out things into perspective. It's a struggle at the moment. But nothing has changed. It's still a wonderful journey.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Keown's a cock isn't he?

 

[A1X]

I trust Sussex Police to be all over any trouble, after all they've got a lot of experience in dealing with the passionate and really, really tough guy Ultras from Croydon.

I have one sitting on me desk right now. I still use them. This is identical to the one I had back in the 70s

Yep. Loads of lads with liquid courage giving it large. I saw one bloke pointing at his own neck tattoo as identification and then gesturing to 'meet outside' at a load of their fans.

He would have lasted about 0.4 seconds if they'd have got to him I reckon.

Anyone else see the lone guy standing outside the Brighton end shouting 'fcking english' to everyone that walked by ?

Whyyyyyy

Really hope someone gave him a slap.

Great interview by PBOBE - very down to earth I thought.

His main message re. Stabbings -Don’t over react - the majority of Roma fans are well behaved and we don’t need Brighton fans looking for revenge on the 14th.

Also recognises that we are missing key players - PB says not excuses but facts - says RDZ has done a ‘fantastic job’ - but we are still learning about Europe - the level we need to compete at.

PB acknowledges we have had a bad run recently - partly because of workload and injuries have compounded that - Roberto hasn’t been able to rotate as much, Enciso coming back from injury, March a big loss etc - most of us have recognised that all has impacted on our recent performances.

We are lucky IMO to have a CEO that is so highly respected in both Europe and English League football and such an articulate advocate for the Club. He clearly has a high regard for RDZ too and recognises the challenges that RDZ has faced - I think that comes across.

Says when we put it all into perspective- we are in a pretty good place right now. ( Think I said much the same thing only yesterday )

 

[Sussexscots]

Barber is spot on in calling out UEFA (in entirely reasonable tones) for their consistent failure to impose any sort of meaningful sanction on European clubs for the actions of their supporters.

You've only just noticed

 

[faoileán]

Fair play to Paul Barber...he's very level headed

 

[ozzygull]

I can just imagine the conversations between a RDZ and Paul Barber, talk about opposite personalities. Love to be a fly on the wall.
