All due respect to all us old guard City fans but c'mon; evolve and try to realise that this team and club are so different from the days of losing to Shrewsbury and Halifax. I'm in my 50th year following City and I'm just enjoying the rise and rise,; even though my grey locks look more grey sometimes. Yes these 1 nils are nerve wracking but feel the trust and see the greatest City and EPL team play their football and win trophies CTID

Bitter rag in the pub last night kept saying enjoy it cos pep is off to Juve in the summer I told him pep recently said in a press conference that the only way he won’t be with us is if we sack him but he was having none of it being really cocky so I told him to put his money where his mouth is and bet him £500! Pep you better e here next season so I can shut the rag fucker up!

Had a tenner bet with a rag that they wouldn't hit top four. Looked dubious at one stage but still waiting for my winnings. For a rag, he's ok so should get it, though I will recommend he switches allegiance as his club is nose diving and will be losing so much ground to the 'noisey neighbours'.

Hi, Brighton fan here. Few thoughts and possible tips for you guys for Sunday.

Tickets - Very, very few STH at Brighton will sell or pass on their ticket - the club have made it clear it will mean a ban and ST being taken away.

Remarkably we have 6,000 people on the waiting list, more than used to watch us at Withdean (remember that place!) how mad is that! Quite rightly the club don't care who they ban for what is basically touting. STs are a card which obviously very few would pass on to someone they don't know...You might find a few non STH selling paper tickets outside the ground, but again highly unlikely.

There are still Hospitality seats available - or were earlier today, not cheap but it does include unlimited booze.

Concourses always (except for Palace) stay open after the game so you can enjoy a beer afterwards too. (Not sure how the OB will keep those without tickets from entering the ground afterwards...)It's all pretty laid back at The Amex - away fans tend to enjoy the experience (normally because the visit comes with 3 points) but also because the stewards are pretty laid back and welcoming (so I'm told)

Lots of pubs in town will be showing the game if you're coming down anyway.

Travel - suggest you read this https://www.brightonandhovealbion.com/siteassets/201819-images/1819-guides/travel-guide.pdf Lots of info there about the free travel zone.

As for the game - obviously I hope you win the league - who wants them to win it - but I hope Wolves beat them and we beat you! Realistically if you get an early goal, it's game over - although both games against you this season have been close (scoreline wise at least)

Hughton is an extremely cautious manager - who tries to 'stay in the game' as long as possible (that went well in the semi-final) and then snatch something. Our best (possibly only chance) of scoring is a Dunk/Duffy header given for a foul when Glenn falls over.

Our home form, once so good, is terrible at the moment - Remember we have recently lost 0-5 at home against Bouremouth and have also lost at home to Cardiff, Southampton and Burnley since Christmas.

Enjoy your day - any questions please feel free to ask.
