That was brilliant, absolutely brilliant

Rosinior aside. There is no negatives from today. Fantastic all round performance. North stand was at its best. Happy days.

 

[Stat Brother]

Yeah but Birmingham aren't exactly a top 5 side, are they?

The fixtures have been very kind to the Albion over the last 18 games

I thought we were much the better team today , could of easily won by 3 or 4 , l thought some of the passing was great , movement was excellent , and we are looking a very strong side . Shame about Brums goal , I think Stockdale should of done better , but made a really good save late on to make amends , Who would of thought unbeaten in to Decemder great stuff

Really? Look at Gordon Greer's contribution for their goal!

 

[Quinney]

Great performance, really enjoyed that. Thought the atmosphere was decent considering the usual last 5 minute nervous hang on.

The team, the fans, everything about our club right now. What a fantastic afternoon watching on the box and jealous of all of you there.

It was a 4-0 performance, and perhaps with the inexplicably disallowed goal and Wilson's shot off the post, it would have been 4.

happy happy happy

quite agree, my favourite game this season. showed real intent. and played lots of exciting football.

 

[Hampster Gull]

That really was very, very good. We are contenders, chaps.

Its looking like that, although we havent played anyone at the top (three)....

can't play ourselves can we

we beat hull, drew with burnley and reading all there or there abouts. we also beat ipswich and fulham and drew with wolves - all early favourites to do well. we have done great with all thats been thrown at us. it's a long way to go, but todays win against a top 6 team who had the best away record in the league must at least be cause for us all to be happy and a bit excited for the upcoming months.

 

[Stat Brother]

It certainly didn't take Wilson long to work out:-

Bruno + ball + time = spectacular pass down the line.

 

[Stat Brother]

Oh and one esp for the East Standers.

That series of first time passes and volleys in front of us, involving Bruno, March & Kayal ending with a (tame) shot from Hemed, 15 minutes into the second half, was worth the entrance fee alone (as the cliche goes)

[Triggaaar]

Yeah, we look like the only side in the division with no chance of taking a point off the top side

 

[Shropshire Seagull]

Agree mostly positive, but why, at home, in the last 5 mins of the match did we get 2 players booked for time wasting and play corner-flag keep-ball !
Looked like we were hanging on .....
We are better than those relegation avoidance tactics, we can play keep ball in open play without resorting to that!
Still, unbeaten and top of the league - enjoy.

 

[Puppet Master]

Bigger tests are yet to come, Boro and Derby with no natural left back, gulp.

 

[SIMMO SAYS]

Just being objective. We won, tick, the loanee from United missed a 1 on 1 and we failed to make dominance pay in goals, cross, we are top of the league, tick, we are 3 points off third and maybe losing in the play offs, now that would be a cross.

Your a boring c##t tick

That was a fantastic move, there were times today which were the best passing movements and forward play in the history of the Amex. If we could only score a few more and enjoy that last 10 minutes of a game, 3 March the last time we won a league match by 2 goals v Derby - how good would that be to repeat in two weeks time.

Because that's what you do when only winning by a goal against a decent side. And it worked.

 

[dibsy]

The lead is going to change many times yet in the top 6, it's going to come down to who's "bad spell" is the shortest. Enjoy the moment.

We have had ours

Utterly brilliant being an Albion fan at the minute, so much to be proud of.

I honestly struggle to remember us having a more committed, likeable and talented group of players in my time as a fan - an undoubted reflection of the man who's steering things on the touchline, too.

Agreed. And that was up there with the best performances I have ever seen from an Albion team in my 55 years of supporting the Seagulls. And as for Solly ... one of the best individual Albion performances I have seen for a very very long time.
