@fred_bhafc@Bha_Charlie@tommychildss If we are 6th going into the final weekend and Villa have won the Europa League - everyone will care if we don’t get CL
@Brightonian_ Think we are too far from Villa, need perfect results for that to happen. Bournemouth should be licking their lips - all we can do is win our next 2 (which won’t be easy). No other option if we want 6th.
Brighton's kitman, Alex Burrows, has a son who is recovering from surgery on a brain tumour.
Lewis Dunk celebrated his goal with an 'A' symbol while Yankuba Minteh held up a shirt with Alfie's name on it 💙
Can we just all accept that the football gods have this down as a Spurs win today.
Top vs bottom of the form table, playing against our previous manager who’s looking to record not only his 1st win but Spurs 1st this year.
I’ve come to terms with it - bring on Chelsea.

@ryanadsett West Ham the perfect example. Get Europe, get it again, win the trophy, fans call for manager to go for ‘no vision’ ‘boring style’. Now they’re bottom 3 whilst the same manager has relegation battling Everton looking at Europe.
@iamgyamfi_@Footballtweet Why wouldn’t Welbeck be hungry? He’s getting better with age.
Yes he’s not young but that level headed mature experience could also be a huge weapon and is likely the reason the recent England teams haven’t won a trophy.
@Freddiesharpe11@ryanadsett I go to the footy, have a nice time with my mates, don’t cry about how we play, don’t let it ruin my day and support the lads home and away.
If I, or any other fan, made the calls Brighton would be in the national league.
Sack him now and we probably won’t get anyone better.
@Freddiesharpe11@ryanadsett The club want to be an established top 10 side and pushing Europe. Want to be. We aren’t there yet.
There’s no issue with the aim but that’s exactly what it is, an ambition, not an expectation.
Finishing 8th last season is great, we aren’t going to be great every single year.
@Freddiesharpe11@ryanadsett Again Moyes at West Ham & Nuno at Forest didn’t have the fans & ‘didn’t know what they were doing’ but they got Europe & won silverware.
We aren’t getting a manager who plays top stuff & gets Europe consistently. We are a mid table PL side who will get Europe infrequently.
@Freddiesharpe11@ryanadsett How is last year irrelevant?
He led us to European football last year, Palace winning the cup stopped that. He’s literally 1 for 1 on his brief to finish top 8 and get Europe - it may not be good this year but our squad is weak and raw. We sell £60-120m and buy teenagers.
@Freddiesharpe11@ryanadsett We did enough to qualify for Europe last season.
Forest get Europe under Nuno, West Ham get it twice & win a European trophy under Moyes.
This idea that we can sustain European competitions and play amazing football is a myth - no manager of that calibre stays at Brighton.
@ryanadsett Just because we were bad once doesn’t mean we should accept being bad again, so just because we were good once doesn’t mean we should be good again.
We have sold far too much & had coaches/staff ripped from us. We finished with 61 points last year - we’re allowed an ‘off’ year.
@BHAFC_Dorset@Knockerwhite15@albion_talk It’s the same thing.
An infringement just means interfering with play. Can be a foul, offside, whatever.
Veltman didn’t foul the player, he blocked him from getting the ball whilst in an offside position - that is the only logical explanation, I’m not saying it’s the correct one.
