[Albion] Weird But Wonderful

[el punal]

Has this ever happened before - that our club, or any other for that matter, have sold all tickets for a match weeks in advance, with no idea who the opponents are or what time the the match kicks off? Yes, of course I’m referring to our Europa League fixture to be played on the 14th of March. I’m absolutely buzzing with this adventure that we’re part of. Having been to all our three EL home games and our away jaunt to see us beat Ajax in Amsterdam I can’t wait for the next instalment. I’m sure that there are thousands of other Albion fans who feel the same. In the meantime I shall spend until 11.00am on Friday going through the permutations of who will go through to the Round of 16 and guess/hope who we will face.

It’s bloody good fun being a Brighton fan at the moment dontcha think?

Yes, fully agree -can't wait for the European games to re-start and will be avidly watching the draw on Friday morning -will it be live On Sky Sports, I wonder!

Tbh, whenever I can afford to buy tickets it's not concerned with who we're playing. But (thank's to my mum) we've been to all the Europa League home matches & have tickets for March 14th. Jnr asked on the open training day when we can go to another match as the last one was Marseille (home obviously). I have the tickets but am keeping it as a surprise until the club send him a reminder to download his ticket, which I hope will be very near to the time.

It's amazing, my brain struggles to comprehend that I've just commented on something about Brighton being in the Europa League!

I guess we know what the kick off time is?

My crystal ball predicts 17.45 or 20.00. Take yer pick!

I'm not being an arse (because I was arse at the time) but it genuinely feels like 5 minutes ago when posters were losing their minds over the tickets being on sale.
