As opposed to turning into one of the most negative by the end of last season...hoping to stay positive even if the worst happens. I am loving the way we are playing and look forward to every game now whereas I began to dread going to games as last season wore on. I’m in the “entertain me” camp over the “ results justify the means” camp. Each to their own eh?
When we were raped and pillaged as a club I was 100% behind whatever shit was on display on the pitch because survival was all that mattered. Now I don’t care what division we are in as long as we play entertaining football, but obviously hope it carries on being at the top table.
I could have happily given up on going if we’d carried on playing like we did most of last season. I would have become an armchair fan quite possibly. Yeah I know, bad fan but these days there are plenty to take my place.
Brighton are a team transformed under Graham Potter, nothing like the side who trudged to Premier League survival under Chris Hughton last term. For the first half hour here they attacked with such fluency they made Villa look like dunces at a Mensa meeting. https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...ghton-hove-albion-premier-league-match-report
Lots of it is refreshing .
Bit concerned we are playing well and not getting the points . Doesn’t bode well for when we have a bad patch .
if you are not on the Potter train then you know nothing about football
Entertainment is still the key thing though, that's what we're truly paying our money for, not points.
Good article. It was on the "Is this the best Albion team ever" thread yesterday afternoon too. Definitely a good read!Brighton are a team transformed under Graham Potter, nothing like the side who trudged to Premier League survival under Chris Hughton last term.

That is the most pathetic excuse given out for defeats. 90% of the entertainment value of football is in achieving a result and if done in style so much the better.
