Fifth Round... / Brighton Ticket Details (1 Viewer)

Beware Brighton the SBA are coming, lock up your boyfriends my dears

Having thought about it, I reckon there's a slim chance we could end up on tv despite it not seeming like a great draw:

- We've already put out 2 higher division teams including a Prem team, so there's potential for an upset
- We have history in the competition so they can waffle on about '87 for hours
- They can highlight how far we've fallen/the owners etc and look like they're doing something to raise awareness
- We tend to take a big following so the atmosphere should be decent

Having said that, I'm probably way off the mark and it'll just be all the usual games including the big prem teams...

I'm happy with the draw. Brighton have the same amount of points as Stoke. They have only won 5 league games out of 24 in the league.

I will be satisfied if we don't get hammered. We are a division 4 side. We have knocked out a Prem side. We have reached the last 16. More than we expected. If we manage a draw it will be fun in the replay and I would fancy our chances.

Brilliant, a weekend away on the south coast for the Stone Island brigade. Where are we all meeting to chuck bottles around and sing don’t take me home?

Expecting a shed load of homosexual chants and I bet Brighton fans will never ever have heard them before.

I’ve booked my hotel ,
It’s expensive down that way

What we're the odds of us beating Stoke? What will the odds be of us beating Brighton? You put the maths together and it means we're even less likely to win.

If the bookies were always right they would be skint. They are in a relegation battle. That is where their priorities will be. It will be 11 v 11. We play better these days against the better sides.

We could beat them.

We beat stoke and they are on the same points. So anything is possible

They are on a horrible run in the prem. Haven't won in a while

Are they all deaf?

Was initially underwhelmed- however I’m now quite excited! One win away from the quarters! Against a team that will not care about this game - SBA out in force - it COULD happen!

The marine parade on Kingsway in Hove is cheap and decent enough.

There was just the slightest tad of sarcasm in my comment.

Many were underwhelmed when we got Stoke.

Many were underwhelmed when we got MK Franchise.

Many are underwhelmed now we have Brighton.

I look forward to getting a draw in the QF that is underwhelming.

Only one question really, what's the payday £150K-£200K?

180k I think for another win plus 45% of Gate Receipts , plus possibly 72k if on tv

We could be the last remaining underwhelming team by then

No doubt they’ll be outrage on here when a 15 year old lad in a stone island jumper on the first row shouts ‘who’s the gay boy in the pink’ at a married, hetrosexual man, in a red polo shirt.

....and no doubt they’ll be endless posters defending him saying it’s because of anger towards sisu/we haven’t had a top 6 finish in 46 years/we’re in League 2. Pusb

VW Camper all prepared for a few days on the South Coast.
Just gotta convince the Mrs that it's ideal for going away for our 42nd wedding Anniversary (14th Feb)
Ideas ?

I have a plan.

Think it's almost certain to be on tv lowest ranked team against premier league opposition

I think it might be on tv.

Would be typical to put it on a Friday.

A lot of nice comments from brighton fans re our support and fanbase. They are very happy with the draw and think it was the draw they hoped for but they have a lot of sympathy for our predicament and are supporting a demonstration against SISU

I sincerely hope no-one shouts 'Who's the gay boy in the pink,' but I am not holding my breath.

So you’d rather have drawn Man City than Wigan?

Only just about recovered from saturday,

The wifes cousin is a Brighton season ticket holder so looks like i will be in the home end again.
The only unfortunate part is will probably have to take the wife!

If they do they'll end up in court. I hope we don't take Leicester's crown down here.
