Brighton (A) - Sat 23 Oct 17:30 | Pre-Match Thread

[117 M34]

Probably the concourse, the ground is basically in the middle of nowhere.

Beer is horrible in the concourse

 

[mat]

I'm guessing this is when we debut the blue 3rd kit and get pelters for it online. I've seen it in club shop its actually alright in person but for the armchairs and twitter police it will be the worst thing ever.

I suspect it will be that kits debut. Expect loads of gags if they score from a defensive fuck up.

"Even with their name on the shirt they still gifted that goal..." Etc

He was out for personal reasons last night.

He thinks poirot is a **** so they kept him home not to incite the locals...

Brighton are dirty fockers and Foden & Grealish will be targeted. Would not be disappointed to see them rested. An ideal game for Dinho to step up to the plate.

Can‘t see Foden being rested, especially after his performance yesterday and the fact he was subbed on 65 mins. Really important that we play our main attacking players as we cant afford silly dropped points with silly rotation of out most important players.

Dinho unlikely to replace Rodri in a tough game like this

They’re a dirty bunch of shitehawks. We owe them a thrashing. If we can come away without injuries AND a win, it will be a decent return.

We don’t seem too popular over on their forum…

[Albion] - Citeh fans

Who gives a **** what they think?! After the money came in decent City fans were diluted with so many armchair fans that throw a strop when they don’t win every trophy going. Little point in reading and giving value to a lot of their opinions.

Living near Brighton and Having encountered a lot of their ‘fans’ (most have Liverpool or United as their first team). Can’t fucking stand them hope we smash them

I like their manager,but as a club.....Bunch of cunts.

Even if they win on Saturday our disappointment will be nothing like they felt at the Amex last season so I think we'll have credit in the bank of gloat for quite some time yet.

Found this one quite funny. Yes its not ideal losing after being 2 goals up but had we not just won the league the week before?

Wonder if he's got any more straws to clutch?

Train gets in about 11.30 bit early for overpriced stadium lager

You don’t need to go to the stadium, certainly not that early for a 5.30 kick off. There are 12 pubs within a five minute walk of Brighton station. The no-no pubs (home fans only) are the Queens Head, Railway Bell, Grand Central - all right outside station entrance. For real ale drinkers go to the Evening Star in Surrey Street, 200 yards from station. Down Trafalgar Street, which goes under the concourse of Brighton station, is the Prince Albert and Lord Nelson - both cracking pubs. Many, many more all within staggering distance - seek and Ye shall find.
The designated away pub is a Spoons job - the Brighthelm - which is in West Street. From the station go directly straight down Queens Road, past the Clock Tower, into West Street. Pub will be on your right hand side. If you get your feet wet you’ve missed it as the waves lap round your ankles!
To get to the Amex get to Brighton station at least half an hour (or more) before kick off. There will be a queuing system in operation to catch trains to Falmer (usually takes about 8 minutes). Don’t worry about lengths of queue, they hold you back until a train comes in, approx every 10 minutes. The stadium is right next to Falmer station. By the way, train fare to/from the Amex is included in your match ticket.
After the game the concourse bars are open for a couple of hours so you can enjoy a couple of pints and allow the queues for the trains to die down.
Have a great day out but just leave us a point or three!
