Brighton (a) pre-match thread

[kaz7]

A group of us have tickets for the game amongst the home fans. Any others on here doing that and if so, which stand? Giving that we can/will win the league, I'd expect quite a lot going down either without tickets or doing what we're doing. It would be comforting to know that the 5 of us won't be on our own.

How did you manage that?

@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.”

Hopefully that means they'll go for the win which should help us. Unless he means Brighton supporters would be happy with a nil nil.

Hagerty F, Hagerty R, Thompkins, Noble, Carrick, Robson, Crapper, Dewhurst, Mclntyre, Treadmore and Davitt.

Ripping Yarns?

I pray we win it in some style .We are Champions ffs go out there as Champions and grab it with both hands .No pussyfooting about ,no 10 passes across the half way line while they organise their defence,no snatched half shots and crosses to an imaginary 7 foot striker.. Play with speed, desire and purpose. If we just nervously limp over the line the media will spin it as the Scousers being a more deserving winners. Show the fookers why we are The reigning Champions , and Liverpool are just 'finalists'.

I think they will defend for their lives and try and nick one later on,be like the cub final again,we will have to be patient,not me as i'm a drama queen,as long as we play with tempo and move them around i think we can do it,i would prefer raz coming into the box for the tap in,i don't like him staying out wide,he is wasted there imo

If we "limp over the line" I don't give a fuck what anyone else says or does to be honest.

Even the names sound robust, throwback to when teams had players called Sidebottom, Braithwaite and Boggs.

Is Alf Tupper on the bench?

This is not 2011/12 we should be making a statement. Win yes but win in style.

Brighton must have gotten off to a bad start. Sound like World beaters now.

Is anyone else booked on the 630 train back into London? We're having twitchy bums about whether we'll make it now!

Hope to catch either a 17.57 or 18.14 I think from Falmer back to Brighton or Lewes and then catch another train back to Victoria.
