[Albion] Smash 'n' Grab

[kevo]

When was the last time we had one of these? Been completely overrun/outclassed, but somehow won? I guess our way of playing doesn't lend itself to that, but would be good to occasionally experience it.

 

[Live by the sea]

Probably the most one sided game I’ve seen all season home or away . But it can happen albeit occasionally.

 

[Stat Brother]

Certainly what I did to Bet365 when Fulham @ 5/1 was mentioned on here.


Oh and we did it to Forest way back when in the early days of the AMEX.
We had one shot, in injury time, and won 1-0.

 

[CAPTAIN GREALISH]

Yes but we would be Happy if we did it ?? That’s football

 

[Motogull]

Fulham may never get a less deserved 3 points this century.

Didn't see Palace last week?

Last week was more one sided

0-1 v Newcastle. Spoke to PBOBE at the airport on the way home, I suggested we’d mugged them. ‘Thought we defended very well’.

To a degree. But we’ve become more educated / snobby since Potter took us over. Maybe since Poyet in fact. I remember that Spurs game away under Hughton when Erikson scored late for them. I remember being embarrassed by our play and negative tactics - and would have still said that if we’d got a point. So personally, the manner of wins does count for a bit!

Thieves Like Us

I am getting quite excited now, I think we really will make it over the line and not go into the play-off lottery :bhasign::bhasign:

We were awful in that game…..aimlessly hoofing it upfield time after time with no-one there. Almost worked though !

Wrong way round I think - the OP is asking when we last won in the manner in which we have just lost.

Worked, yes. Any pride to be a Brighton fan that night - no! I feel 20 times more proud of our lads today despite an unfair loss than I did that night away to spurs with a more respectable loss! We’ve all had a real pro football education since the day Poyet took over on the whole for me!

Should have stuck those 5cumbags on a slow train back to London via Margate stopping at every stop that should suit them perfectly.

100% agree. That game was embarrassing.

The biggest smash and grab that I can remember for us was away at WestHam Bobby Z was playing for them and they were battering us, I don’t think we were time wasting, just sh!t, but Guy Butters scored the only goal with a header from a free kick and our only shot at goal.

[El Turi]

Those 3 games in a row we won 1-0 in Hughton’s last season spring to mind. West Ham, Newcastle and Wolves.

At last someone who answered the question!

Loads of examples against us, struggling to think of many times in recent years we've done it to others.
