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

Sad isn’t it. You’re at home against the team that’s 8th in the Premier League, with the FA Cup quarter final a real possibility. And there’s no-one there. What else have Stoke going to have this season to get excited about?

Can't tell if you're joking? Why would Stoke care about watching Brighton. We're probably the most unattractive draw for a championship side. Unlikely to win, but not a huge team with star players to go along and watch.

I don't understand why we go down the left over and over. Two good players on the right hardly getting a touch.

 

[Eric the meek]

81% possession according to BBC. Lovely football. But no goals.

for those not colour blind I hope away strip works for you because for me at a quick glance both teams are wearing the same kit. Our home shirt has a greater contrast that our away one

I think that’s a bit unfair tbh. Cup games are not always included on season tickets, money is tight for lots of people and there’s not a huge chance of a win for them. I can understand it.

Slow and steady, pretty much in control....we'll be fine.

 

[Simster]

Stoke are 13/2 for anyone fancying an insurance bet!

If I put that bet on, it would be a draw with Stoke winning on penalties.

Just lacking physicality in some areas (Lamptey, Sarmiento)

Because of Van Hecke, he doesn’t have the confidence Dunk has and turns back inside each time.

 

[NorthLainer]

Well done Steely

 

[A1X]

Yesss

 

[Red Squirrel]

[Simster]

Lovely goal

 

[Codner's Wallop]

Beautiful

 

[KZNSeagull]

Bosh Boom. Simple as that

This all day long. Either of our other kits would have more contrast than the Hyper-Turq jobbie.

 

[Hendrax]

Sloppy and a bit ponderous at the moment.

And we score

 

[NorthLainer]

Boom, just like that 1 - 0

 

[Si Gull]

Almost caught out. Steele good enough and Fergie 1-0!

 

[birthofanorange]

It was coming.
