@Ronan Rafferty: at this stage I take a traffic cone over some of the centre halves.
@Ronan Rafferty: plus it’s good to see No 23 back in the defence.
Brighton to Win and Shane Duffy to score a header..
@Colin Floyd: you are a header
@Colin Floyd: threw himself to the ground for that peno, our Shane.
Come on Hendo Cano Dumo Robo Salo Gimpo Harpo Gypo and Kloppo . Majestic !
@powerfix: whatever your in to, we won’t judge.
A Brighton win here wouldnt surprise me….if they contain and mark Salah, then they should score and take the points…i’m a big fan of Chris Houghton who was very hard done by at Norwich..
And on to more important news…well done Chelsea another 3 points and the gap is closing….ish !!!!
@dannyboy: Hard done by at Newcastle too. The man gets no respect from up high but players have never had a bad word to say. Excellent football man, terrible footballing politician. Unfortunately that’s the same as every other walk of life. Big Sam, anyone?
@dannyboy: Houghton?? Wasn’t he yer man that put the ball in the back of the English net?
@dannyboy: Great prediction, you must be a real football man, Lol!
3-3 anyone ?
@powerfix: yeah maybe in 10 years
