Brighton (A) | Post-Match Thread

ah well....according to gallagher......cancelo decision correct and var couldn't intervene on the jesus pen. no other points raised.
 
Forget the dodgy decisions for a second. I am slightly concerned with the defence. The Cancelo incident reminded me of the Leicester game. Walker also against Newcastle. We look vulnerable to a hoof ball down the line.

The individual mistakes have crept in again. Lots of reasons why: league won, rotation etc. It does not mask the individual error poor performances since PSG. Ederson, Cancelo, Rodri to name a few.

It works both ways - mystified how Bernando Silva's challenge on Bissouma didn't warrant a card either so would agree that the referee / VAR didn't have the best game - but from our perspective when you think what we have had to put up with this season with VAR (namely the penalty given for Utd after the final whistle and the free kick debacle at West Brom) I will take getting the rub of the green for once.

I agree with hate in football - seen a lot of nasty comments about Brighton on here - I can only call it as I saw it last night in that your boys got a standing ovation on to the pitch last night and applauded on in the warm up too. Totally baffled at the pantomime booing of Foden and others - totally uncalled for.

I have no issue with City at all. Played the best football, been the best team and deserve to be champions. the media love a good underdog story, however, and given that whenever we have beeaten a "bigger" team this season it has always been about how bad the other team have been as opposed to how good we have been, I think it's long overdue that Brighton got some credit.

All the best for next week

I think everyone is going to have to get used to the fact that football fans are angsty and tribal and know they can influence a game, and it's been a weird year where we have all got used to watching games alone in our small bubbles and that fans of opposition teams might have their own equally warped perspectives. The ref was shite, but as you say every team in the division suffers from the dog shit standard of refereeing in this country, and the less said about VAR the better.

I think when the dust settles more City fans will remember what the club and Brighton fans did for City on the last day of the season a few years ago rather than a niggly dead rubber a few weeks before one of the biggest games in our history.

I went to uni at Sussex, always had a lot of time for Brighton, glad you're in the division again next year.

Someone tell me that game wasn't rigged, Atwell, Moss and the ' var team' obviously came to an earlier decision to make sure Brighton got every crucial call tonight. They should've been down to ten for that knee high tackle on Gundogan, Bernardo not getting a foul at the end of the first half, we didn't even get to see the replay, then to top it off Llallana doesn't get any of the ball and fouls Jesus in the box, then we're led to believe Moss actually checked it, did he fuck.
Bent as fuck that game, reckon Pep knew it as well

Moss was stuffing a pork pie into his grid at the back of the caravan so didn't see it. What's the phrase I'm looking for.... not fit for purpose....useless fat bastard, the list is endless.
