Brighton & Hove Albion 1-1 Newcastle United - 04/05/2025

[Drewboy74]

Tough game but a canny result against a horrible bogey team.

[54]

Will absolutely take that, very much so. Second half was so much better than the first,  but a point is probably a fair result.

 

I was so angry when VAR spend an age on that third penalty, was certain they where going to overturn it

Didn’t see the replay but I think they should have got a pen when Tonali brought their player down? Also their late header which they should have scored. All in all happy with a point, but not with the performance.

He really is

Imagine if we had just tried that hard from the start. Thank god for the pen though because we were not scoring from open play.

[Andy84]

Excellent point. In our hands 

[Roids]

Good result all things considered, just gotta handle Chelsea at home

Dreadful performance on so many levels.

 

Yeah would've taken a point before the game but a performance like that hardly gives confidence that we can beat Chelsea, or even Everton.

 

Performances mean fuck all but it wasn't that bad in the end. We weren't particularly effective with the ball - usually taking too long or needlessly giving it away - but we forced our way back into the game. I think that's to their credit. 

[jcat]

Not a great performance. But happy with a point.

[HaydnNUFC]

Annoying we weren’t more incisive as I thought they were quite shite. Barely got into our third until after we equalised in the second half. 3 points were there for the taking but I’ll take the 1. Got to do it in the home games. Shame the kick off time against Chelsea is so aids.

Fucking hate Brighton such a nothing club.

They were fucking shit today as well

A nothing club we can't seem to beat.

[Dancing Brave]

That wasn't fun, but a point will do for sure.

Both pens that weren't given were the correct decisions, in fact Willock actually tried to cheat, not impressed with what he did. 

[ExiledGeordie]

Poor first half, much better second half. Given how I felt at halftime (not good at all 😂😂) that’s a huge point. 

[Shays Given Tim Flowers]

Good point on the road. 

[Zero]

Would take the result given how bad we are and it’s an away game 

 

but the way Willock played today warrants an exit the coming summer. We should have played Miley instead. 

[Keggy_Keagal]

Good changes from the manager got us the point. Can't have Willock starting in a midfield three based on today. Wonder if we'll see the back 5 for the remainder of the season. 

[KennyUtd]

Isak just not looking right but thank fuck he's a penalty demon. Average performance but still thought we shaded it. Let's hump Chelsea and Everton at home. Fantastic season.

[duo]

That points keeps our CL hopes alive - was massive. 

[Kanj]

I thought Wilson looked the best he’s been in ages. 

[Ginola]

Don't think we played badly but definitely lacked quality in the final third. Good point in the end 

 

I think Willock needs to go in the summer. He's a great athlete but for the level we want to be at doesn't have close to the technical ability needed and has zero intelligence 

[El Prontonise]

So glad to get this fixture out the way.

[Kid Icarus]

Will take that all day long. Really frustratingly poor performance as is tradition against this mob, so delighted with the point. Beat Chelsea and one of Arsenal or Everton and we're there.

Trippier: 6.5

Schär: 6.5

Burn: 6

A point atleast that'll do. 

If we hump chelsea all will be good.

Villa need to win all their remaining games and we don’t 😀
