Don't love them , arsenal TV is a joke, the Sussex gooners are cringe, seems to be more of them than spurs these days.

But I live in London so know a fair few genuine fans and they never underestimate Brighton and know our players quite well and have a begrudging respect for us (a bit like artwata).

Rice 50/50 challenge with Estupinian, shoulder to shoulder. Rice gets given the free kick yet again and he spends two mins play acting and remonstrating with the ref and fourth official about a "shoulder injury".

Seemed to be trying to get the physios on again. Twat.
Funny how they kept going down in almost the exact same spot as that incident( and the bald prick kept falling for ) ,you don’t think they had a set piece routine they’d been practicing do you?

Is it just my blinkered dislike of the club or is anyone else incredibly happy to take a point off them?

"You're only here to watch the Arsenal", time wasting from the first half, staying down after every challenge, inherent superiority complex. They never change year on year.

Loved that second half :albion2:
They're horrible. And I was quite surprised how much they've regressed. Arteta seems to have been sent doolally by repeated failure. Their time-wasting was insane. Half way through the first half and they're at it. Every corner and every throw. I said to the guy next to me, that I'm alright with it. Shoes how insecure they are. Proper good teams don't come and cry and roll about like that. They try and put you away with confidence. That ending of the first half was ridiculous. I was going to start a whip round to get some wreaths with the number of arsenal players that looked like they were going to mysteriously pass away in Innocuous circumstances. Interestingly enough, for the 'small' team, when it was 1-1 we never did it. Pushed on to try and win.

Once shithousing and relying on 'margins of superiority' like free kicks and stuff gets a grip of your culture and footballing DNA I don't think you can be credible challengers. Its like Arteta tried Pep and is now trying out Benitez.

The last time ive seen cheating that bad was villa a couple of years ago but they were under new management and threatened with relegation and about to go into the world cup so were desperate for the points.

During the game I was trying to work out, if there was a table detailing time to take a throw or deadball situation when leading who would be top, in taking the longest average time, Arsenal or Villa.

Difficult to decide

I work with a few - utterly entitled, plastic, glory hunting dickheads who think they should win every game they play.

Looking forward to Tuesday when I'm back at work and wishing them Happy New Year.
...and if they start moaning about the penalty just headbutt them to prove it was...

Deepest, darkest Sussex
The fact they were time wasting from 25 minutes into the game for a supposedly big club was embarrassing

Agree with this. The best thing about their scummy behaviour under that Grecian 2000-using hijo de puta is that…it just doesn’t actually work. You simply don’t win titles that way.
