“We’ll c” definitely means not a chance

Just back from the game and Wee Billy take a bow,MOTM by a country mile, excellent display no matter who we were playing, really pleased for him.

Wouldn't it be just DELICIOUS if the player that steps up to fill the Caicedo hole (and does just as well/better) is wee Billy G?!

Cheers Chelsea!

We English would name all US citizens as Yanks, we would not say Yankee though, and Cockney slang is borrowed countrywide when the example is a bit funny.

Nope
Yankees
Doodle Dandy's
Septic tanks

I'm looking forward to seeing this Solly Archer chap at the Amex

I think the admin team should be given a pay rise. Consistently entertaining.

But why? I wouldn't call someone from Scotland English?

Maybe if the South had won we would call you all dix?

What did you think of today’s ref today @Brighton Lines ? Mate texted me late in the game “the only thing this ref has given us today is yellow cards”

I didn't really notice him as there was no controversy. Most of the cards he gave were for silly things, like when Enciso kicked the ball away. Players have got to learn really as this could be ouch come November or December. The rules have tightened.

It's VAR again this year that is the problem. But I think we'll be having the same conversation in five years time as it is. The irony was the Leeds match last night when they conceded a handled goal. It was surreal waiting for the goal to be chalked off knowing that it hadn't been seen so that was it.

Strange game today, apart from that ten minute destruction there wasn't really much between the teams. Wolves just can't finish. They were like we were for long periods under Potter. But I think they will improve, so it's a precious three points is that.

Just got home, had worse days, and topped off by one of the easiest drives back from the Midlands ever. No delays at all

On the other hand, I was sat in traffic for about an hour north of Scotch Corner due to a vehicle fire (according to a sign I saw at least, that could easily have been there for days).
Missed the first half and only managed to see the last two goals on the screen on the concourse.
At least I saw that guy in hospitality making a knob of himself.
Then I managed to add 20minutes to my journey down to Sussex by turning the wrong way out of Oxford services

Only just watched the highlights.

Mitoma goal - incredible.
Enciso setting up March - marvelous.
Pervis - keeps getting better.

That Nunes is a pillock. Shoves Webster over Steele, Pervis over Webster and then decides to square up to Dunk. If he had a braincell it'd die of loneliness.

 

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

And Adringa, who could easily have scored two last week, didn't even get off the bench!!

Tucked up in bed after a nice post-journey curry.

Clinical beyond belief, totally outclassed Wolves today

We were in a different class today. Those 2 quick 2nd half goals absolutely destroyed them. Tactically I think RDZ needs to look at how WW at times ran through us in the middle. Billy is superb with the ball and a great link up creative player, but not really a defensive type player and at times we needed that. I wonder if Gross perhaps deeper in a holding role at these times would help us hold the line a bit more. Special mention for Veltman. Came on and made some superb challenges. Webster at his best today. A couple of challenges late on in the game were world class. MOM for me Welbeck as he terrorised WW. His off the ball movement e.g.dragging defenders out of the way is world class. Great day out.

In terms of "septic tank" 1) Google informs me it is cockney slang. I did not know Brighton used that? And 2) I am not from the north East of the US.

Everyone knows septic meaning yanks. A lot of cockney slang is used/known countrywide really: butchers (butchers hook - look), dog and bone (phone), apples and pears (stairs), porky (porky pie - lie) etc

Clinical beyond belief, totally outclassed Wolves today

Not quite up to speed yet overall but blimey we have been clinical!! Incredible to think we've not played to our best yet but scored 8 goals in opening two games - what a time to be alive

But why? I wouldn't call someone from Scotland English?

You would call them British though.

Will watch the replay soon.

I am loving Sunday mornings Downunder. Sets me up for the day lovely. Hard to pick a MOTM for this; our front line is simply a joy to behold.
