Brighton v United - FA Cup SF - Sun 23rd April, 16:30

[paulchapo]

Brighton, like Newcastle, are just happy to be here. They are also overplaying and dawdling on the ball. I've seen them play a lot better than this.

 

[CityBluez]

Can our second team win against rags?

 

[Akai]

Antony ****

BBC going on about attendance yesterday

Easier to attend today when man utd's fanbase is from a 40 mile radius of Wembley and Brighton are 50 minutes away on a train from Waterloo

One thing they don’t mention is there’s a tonne of corporate ticket holders for United in London. There’s three in my office of 50 people. People who sit on United season tickets for networking and relationship purposes despite rarely attending themselves. They’ve been doing this for decades, City don’t have the same representation in that strata of society (though it is obviously improving).

 

[Plays By Sense Of Smell]

I bet there’s hundreds of millions locked out.

Give them their due, they're not jibbing in...

 

[blueballs84]

Long ball United zzzzzz

 

[KingGeorge]

Imagine Antony on our roster. Pep would ship him out after one week.

 

[Chi-town blues]

Can our second team win against rags?

eds will give them a good game

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

Any decent prem team are smashing united today.

Us, arsenal, even the dippers would smell blood and be 4-0 up by now.

 

[jimharri]

Can our second team win against rags?

Their first choice XI? No, I don't think so.

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Martial looks a right boring bastard

 

[I'm With Stupid]

I don’t know how to feel about it- a cynic would say it’s just a dig but the topic was more around moving it up north if it’s two northern teams and the cost of going to Wembley? We don’t have a fan base the size of United obviously, but we also have been a lot more recently to Wembley than any other top 6 team, which is barely mentioned also

Exactly. The semi-finals at Wembley thing is already stupid, but criticising people for not spending a fortune travelling down for something that isn't a final is ridiculous. Especially when those doing the criticising have barely paid to attend a match in their life.

 

[Withnail]

Would be great to see Brighton in the final, two teams playing football in the right way.

 

[bluethrunthru]

Not fair is it, particularly as there’s two fanbases from the south east today.

Every time they focus on a rag in the stands I think - Surbiton - family from Hemel Hempstead - Kent - ( yes I did spell check lol ) - they all ooze darn sarf

 

[deano ou812]

For all of Brightons possession they look lost in the final third,unfortunately can see the rag’s getting a stuffy scabby goal ..

 

[paulchapo]

Do Brighton REALLY believe they can win this? I hope they do, because it's there for the taking. Utd are a middling team, nothing more. Sevilla highlighted their shortcomings last thursday, and I think Brighton are a better side than the Spaniards.

It's odd Jim, I just posted similar, the occasion seems to have got to them

 

[malg]

To be fair lineker and shearer agreed it should have been up north the semi final,but we know why they won’t be,MONEY.

That view from behind the donut thief's goal was quite interesting at that corner. Quite a few empty seats in the top tier behind the Brighton goal.

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

Park the bus football from United, they’re basically an expensive Stoke.

 

[Chi-town blues]

Martial looks a right boring bastard

sun never shines fuck face martial

 

[Aba452]

Deserved card for tits Shaw, praised as sensible by Danny gargoyle murphy, dopy fucking arsehole.
