Current thread on North Stand Chat about overseas Seagulls supporters. There are fans in Toronto, Calgary, Connecticut, Phoenix, New York, Orange County, Hawaii, Miami, LA and Seattle. Pretty impressive.

Well that was just amazing :thumbsup:

Looking forward to game number two under the lights.

Super sub Buckley saves the day and Gus’s ploy of getting a better view of the game from the Stands worked perfectly! Stadium looked superb - really envious of all the fans who were there. Hopefully see a game later in the year.

Best I could do was the Football League Show highlights (thanks to the VPN). The Amex looks fantastic...hopefully I'll be able to get a ticket within the next 5 years :-)

There were tickets available. Tonight's attendance is expected to be around 18,000. Then it's back home tomorrow.

Saints 18/1 and Brighton 25/1. Probably about right. Either of these prices could look great value a few games in though as I reckon both could get good starts. I'd settle for Brighton 1st & Saints 2nd again come the end of the season

Saints are doing the biz. Reckon Brighton can keep up?

What was the deal with all the hate for Adkins from Brighton fans? Why?

I like the bloke. Speaks a lot of sense and just quietly gets things done. Not too much drama.

I wouldn't call it hate (not from these quarters anyway!), just the usual banter between clubs probably strengthened by the close proximity. I think the perception from Brighton's fans is that Saints consider themselves like West Ham (they won the world cup you know) :D

Yeah I hate that West Ham think they won the WC - everyone knows it was Saints who contributed the most.

FSP has Forest v Leicester at 10am ET (3pm UK) this Sat. A game not live in the UK. Definitely need to keep an eye on that channel for potential games.

Just checked and I can log into Brighton Player with my Saints Player account (you can on most of them) so will prob listen to your game this afternoon. 0-0 will be a handy FT...

Yeah, the player thing works quite well (usually!) and well worth the 35 quid.

Should be interesting with four teams looking for that top spot (but realistically second place) tonight. Not sure how it will go but I doubt it will be a goal-less draw!

Not a bad first half :thumbup:

Sheepdip Aug 17th 2011 8:59 am

Re: Up The Albion!
 
And not a bad second. 3-1 win, can't complain at that and 'keeping up' :lol:

3-1 was a great result - especially as it was at Cardiff and they made the playoffs last season and beat West Ham. Lot of Cardiff fans on NSC saying how impressed they were with the type of football Brighton are now playing.
