[Albion] The very definition of optimistic

[DavidinSouthampton]

Two of the remaining Brighton games are at what could be described as a bogey-stadium.

I'm hoping for the best but the current position is probably as high as it gets this season.



They didnt

Obviously one would like to do better, but I’d be absolutely delighted to stay in 9th.

Highest ever finish in the Premier League, highest ever points total in that league with three games to go.
Three away games won in style in April when we entered the month being reminded that we had never won a Premier League match in April.

What’s not to like!!!

Indeed, Sheffield United couldn't buy a win before a relegation not so long ago but once confirmed they won their final four games

But they didn't.

 

[Bodian]

WTF! who's the new boy?

He probably thought he was on the 'final relegation spot' thread....

No, not last season. I can't find the season, it may even have been pre - Premier League (well I am old) I'm having a mare here aren't I?

In the unlikely event West Ham win the Europa League then we don't need to finish above them, just above Wolves in 8th, to qualify for the Europa Conference.

And Leicester, presumably unless they win the Europa Conference or whatever it's called?

Having slept on it I have lowered my sights to just giving United a thumping at the Amex as the one result I would settle for over the next three games. Yes, even above beating Dirty at Elland Road.

Time to avenge the five shots off the woodwork game and the defeat at OT which resulted in our slump to no wins in 11 (?) having totally dominated the first half of that game.

I also know quite a few United fans who are still taking the piss that we lost to an underperforming United team, I’d like to be able to gloat over the summer months

I reckon we can have Manure, even at our bogey ground. They are not so much on the Beach, more on the Rocks...

You’d think but you’re not new here so you know what normally happens when we EXPECT to win a game

You'll Note that I stated CAN have, not WILL have. No doubt a comedy own goal in the 93rd minute awaits...

Good chance many will miss the last train out of Brighton with this being man United

 

[Silverhatch]

Unfortunately, being unable to even beat an egg at the Amex - our target has to be 12th and the rightful title of best ever (statistically) side in Brighton’s history.

The chance of GP winning the dreaded MotM award?

 

[Hamilton]

Got to aim for the stars to hit the moon, but I’d be happy with a top 10 finish.

The last thing we want at this stage of our development as a decent Premier League team is to have to play in a European competition.

Nailed it. I don’t normally subscribe to conspiracy theories, but is there a chance that Neal Maupay was under instructions to miss the penalty against Norwich?

Well quite. And we shouldn't even bother entering the FA Cup in case we were to win that. Putting all our effort into the cups might cost us a top half finish.

Come on Norwich!! [emoji38]
