Brighton (a) pre-match thread

[burning blue soul]

@OfficialBHAFC defender Lewis Dunk: “The whole world will be watching and it’s a big chance to show what we’re about - it will be a historic game to be involved in... In the last home game we want to send the supporters home happy with something to cheer about.”

what they want and what they are going to get are two very very different things!!!

But us 3-0 up at half time would be better.

I won't be calm unless we're 5-0 up at the 80th minute, and even then a goal would set me twitching. But accepting that Liverpool can do nothing feels positive.

Don't forget, every hack and his dog, will be asking them questions to illicit the required response.
Hoping to make themselves a little cosier about Liverpool's chances.

Not sure that we had nothing to play for - it was the first game of the season wasn't it?

We've been notoriously slow starters this season, conceding loads of goals in the first 20 minutes (see semi-final for starters)

If you score early, I can see it being 3 or 4

Hughton is always cautious - we'll defend deep, try and get Glenn to win us free kicks and then throw D & D forward.

I'm thinking this may well be Dunk's last game for us - hope I'm wrong as he'll be very hard to replace but he's far too good for us.

Was talking about the last game of last season, we were going for 100 points. It was Brighton who had nothing to play for, not is. Sorry just been pointed out it was the Southampton game I was thinking of

We played them the opening game of the season! Are you thinking of Southampton?

Oops sorry yes I was

Surely knowing that the dippers havent won the league will give them something to cheer about.

I've always rubbished the notion of teams at home on the last day of the season have nothing to play for,they all want to win their last game at home for the fans,if anything the shackles are off and it's a harder game

A quick reminder to anyone trying their luck with selling tickets......please use the ticket forum and as per the our rules....do not request anything more than face value.

Thank you.

Too much shitting the bed because the dippers won a CL game,our lads are not bothered by that,they are focussed on the title,it might be a grind but who cares so long as we win

when you see mo salah fall down anywhere inside the box and the referee gives a pen and then you see sterling getting mashed and nothing ?? you bet am shitting myself

look its in our own hands and not only manchester city players and manaer can control our game but the referee and officials also will have a big part in it ?? and with what as been said by the head of the premier league and the way liverpool getting results you have to feel a twist is on the cards, if we are not 100% on fire and kill the game and take a big percentage of our chances then the referee has the chance to be a star ??

its a hard game and away from home and all that ?? brighton will be safe and under no pressure what so ever and a free ride so makes it 100% harder with them nothing to lose, pressure is on and manchester city must respect brighton
