The referee was so fucking biased against us in that game, allowing the Brighton players to kick fuck out of us and gave them every decision possible.

His performance bordered on corrupt.

We seriously owe them for that game and I hope we make the difference in quality pay this time round.

Their fans were absolutely pathetic on that night encouraged by the performance of the officials.

Even Potter who I think is a decent manager behaved like a twat .

Tierney was a disgrace that day and let Brighton get away with murder. Hopefully the players won't have forgot that day and are keen to get their revenge on Saturday

Everybody gets fucked over in order to keep those twats relevent , and the world wide billions of SKY watching lemmings paying their subscriptions.

Try living in roughly the same locality ( ie not Manchester ) as the fucking vermin before complaining mate.

Invaded by total fucking knownowts ( with cameras , scarves and every other form of meaninless shite ) from every part of the bleeding universe every fortnight !

And now we have the Portugese Ponce being shoved down our throats at every opportunity.

Living in Brighton must be heaven in comparison compared to what we have to put up with.

I get your drift and on that basis we’re lucky as our ‘vermin’ live 40 odd miles up the A23.
 
Don't mind Clubs like Brighton doing well, new ground, probably some new local support too, stops em from being Rags or Dippers which can't be bad.

But when they start having a pop at us! A Club that had more ups and downs over 20 years but we kept decent crowds relative to the time and circumstances (Geordies, Chelsea and a few others take note) then its gloves off for Blues.

What's the beef with Palace anyway, what started it?

That ref was a disgrace and I'm still aghast at the penalty ignored at the end. Even VAR didnt deem it enough to award. It was as blatant as penalties get.
 
Expecting a wowser of a match (put the curse on that)

Pep respects the philosophy of potter and vice versa, can’t envisage Brighton will suddenly change the approach so that being said this will make for an enthralling encounter (:

Going for a 4-2, with us having too much up top, Gabby will be chomping at the bit

Beef with Palace? It goes back to the mid 1970s.It kicked off around 1974 when Palace played the first game of the season at the Goldstone. They’d just been relegated from Div.2 and thought they were the Billy Big Bollocks but we’re beaten 1-0. For the next six years we matched each other in going up the divisions. Brighton fans hated Palace and vice versa. It got really tasty when Alan Mullery became Brighton’s manager and Terry Venables took over at Palace. They couldn’t stand each other when they both played for Spurs and it filtered down from there onto the pitch with the players. So it’s certainly a weird rivalry and NOT the f***ing M23 derby as the media like to call it. Just a case of we hate them, they hate us.

Never forgiven them for blowing the 1983 Cup final against the scum.
Oh that miss from Gordon Smith.

I Remember a huge 30 a side game of football on our estate park before the final. Half the boys chanting seagulls seagulls and the other half seaweed seaweed.

Anyone know if they are doing Covid checks at Brighton? My lad is going and was asking but I haven’t a clue.

Covid checks seem to have evaporated. Brighton were very stringent in the first couple of home games but not since. When we played Leicester and Arsenal there were no checks or at our away games at Brentford and Norwich that I went to. Having said that I have updated my Covid app on the phone - just in case.

I woz there! Alan Mullery who was the Brighton manager at the time was going ballistic. Palace went 1-0 up, we were awarded a penalty scored from it then the ref (Challis of Palace) had it retaken because a Palace player was encroaching, and it was saved. Then we had a good goal disallowed. We lost 1-0 Mullers got the hump, a Palace fan chucked a cup of coffee over him, Mullers grabbed a load of loose change and threw it their fans saying “That’s all your worth Palace!”, flicked them a load of ‘V’ signs and stormed off - absolute legend!
