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

[Eric the meek]

Estupinan's goals of late are so good, it almost feels worth getting a speed gun from Amazon.

I'm guessing 200 kph. Any advance on that?

 

[Zeberdi]

Just got back from the allotment to see the equaliser. Sweet.

Did you happen to see any of our lads there while you were digging up your swedes? They too seemed to have missed most of the first half

Here we go ..

I'd become pretty ambivalent about the FA Cup since we got out of the lower leagues. Right up for it now though - makes a big difference knowing we have a team that actually has the potential to win the trophy. Not showing it today but come on Albion.... !

I thought that Enciso was rolling around too much when he came through but the last couple of matches before the injury he had just cut that crap, hope Facundo does the same. He should know better by now,

I'm sure he will after he spends some more time in the gym.

I'd give Hinshelwood a go in CM in the second half. Gilmour needs someone else alongside him. Hinsh is now settled and composed and could be that man.

He has been playing a wide CM role in front of Dunk,Hecke and Pervis. We are using him as a ‘false winger’.

As for Facu - he just needs to condition up more and grow a bigger pair - he gets targeted a lot because he’s been playing in a central attacking position - although he’s playing deeper today. He does seem to get very frustrated when he’s challenged and blocked - quite often by yellow card fouls - that frustration ( and subsequent ’injury dramas’) could be arise from a lack of confidence because he‘s still trying to impress RDZ ( who is quite hard on him I suspect).

I've been impressed with Moder. He can offer something in the middle when he's fully fit.

 

[Washie]

Should have given the kids a go. Couldn't have been any worse.

 

[Littlemo]

Yasssss Dunk

 

[Morvangull]

Dunk makes it 2-1

 

[Beanstalk]

Since the ball went to us, couldn't they have just played on?

As the ball isn’t technical in play when the foul throw occurs I’m not sure you can play advantage. Who knows though! Niche one!

 

[Pevenseagull]

After you Maude.

 

[Swegulls]

Yeees, Dunk!

 

[Si Gull]

Yay! Dunk!

 

[Hendrax]

Dunk!!

 

[KZNSeagull]

Dunky! Splendid 2-1

 

[hart's shirt]

Just gone over to it on BBC1 as Dunk's goal went in.

 

[Marty McFly]

A goal from a corner!

 

[The Fits]

Easy..well done Dunk. Let's hammer them now.

I take full credit for the goal
