dannysfc Posted 27 April, 2011 Posted 27 April, 2011 I was there on Saturday at the Brighton game which was Good in the end as we won even though it was a last minute winner and at the game on Monday v Hartlepool which was also another Good win! But for once I hope that Brighton do us a favour and help us seal promotion by beating Huddersfield and barring that we win and don't screw up because otherwise Huddersfield will be back in the driving seat and be 3 points or a point ahead of us, but I think because we have a superior GD to Huddersfield I think we will hold on and keep our nerve and go up coming 2nd and getting the automatic place so Come On Brighton Please Win!!! Thanks! COYR !!
ChrisPY Posted 27 April, 2011 Posted 27 April, 2011 I think Brighton should not do us a favour and lose. I want to finish as close to them as possible as I think we will win all of our games left.
RedAndWhite91 Posted 27 April, 2011 Posted 27 April, 2011 I'm impressed by that 84 word sentence. Oh, and come on Brighton.
trousers Posted 27 April, 2011 Posted 27 April, 2011 I hate to burst bubbles (or any other dead pop star's monkey for that matter) but i can't see anything other than a Huddersfield win at the weekend.
saints-cris Posted 27 April, 2011 Posted 27 April, 2011 I Am Also Rooting For Brighton! I Really Hope They Win!
Whitey Grandad Posted 27 April, 2011 Posted 27 April, 2011 I hate to burst bubbles (or any other dead pop star's monkey for that matter) but i can't see anything other than a Huddersfield win at the weekend. Indeed, 'tis a concern. All the more reason for us to beat Brentford, then.
Saints foreva Posted 27 April, 2011 Posted 27 April, 2011 I hate to burst bubbles (or any other dead pop star's monkey for that matter) but i can't see anything other than a Huddersfield win at the weekend. Agree with this.
trousers Posted 27 April, 2011 Posted 27 April, 2011 I Am Also Rooting For Brighton! I Really Hope They Win! 'Rooting' in the euphemistic sense...?
Griffo Posted 27 April, 2011 Posted 27 April, 2011 I Would really Like Brighton to Win Too!? What do You Think Saints Fans1?!!? COYR!!?
SaintNeil90 Posted 27 April, 2011 Posted 27 April, 2011 I know people are saying that its the last game at the Withdean and all that but Poyet seems such a bitter man that he will probably field a weak team and tell his players to take it easy, allowing a Huddersfield win.
SNSUN Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 I'm impressed by that 84 word sentence. Oh, and come on Brighton. I'm impressed you counted it.

This. Anyone got the Football League's email address for post match complaints? What's the points penalty for fielding a weakened team?
Saint Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 I still think they'll want to win. They want to get as close to 100 points as possible and it's their last game at the Withdean. I can't see them just lying down. Although, I wouldn't be at all surprised by any result in this game.
Saint-scooby Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 There is a party to spoil, we did alot of damage on Saturday, but time will tell
skintsaint Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 even a draw would be good...give us some leaway in our result with Brentford...
Daren W Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 No a question of questioning their professionalism, it's more a question of whether they're good enough to beat Huddersfield. Judging by that live game on Sky, I don't think they're all that...
rocknrollman no2 Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 I think the Brighton team are on their hols already.Look at their defending at their last game.I also think they will use this game to try a few fringe players. Expect a determined Huddersfield team to try and win at any cost,then i think its only going to end one way and thats with Brighton losing.
RedAndWhite91 Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 I'm impressed you counted it. I have a lot of time on my hands.
Window Cleaner Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 Isn't Greer back from suspension for Saturday? He'll be up for this game if he is. Greer is primordial to the structure of Brighton's defence, doubt if we'd have got 2 late goals if he'd have been there.
Toomer Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 We win, Brighton win, let the party begin. (Please)
Liquidshokk Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 I will be putting a bet on brighton losing. Its a no brainer. They dont want us in the championship with them and they will want to get at us for saturday. Huddersfield will be less of a threat to them if they go up with them as they can be truly shocking at times. Weakened side from Brighton who will be thinking of the holidays in paradise they are about to go on and 3-0 to huddersfield.
RedAndWhite91 Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 Surely Brighton will need to win their last two games if they are to get 100 points? I'm clinging on to that as a reason why they'll want to win.

I'm clinging on to that as a reason why they'll want to win. Is that really much of a big deal to them? surely their opposition next season is even more of a consideration than that
trousers Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 Is that really much of a big deal to them? surely their opposition next season is even more of a consideration than that Indeed. I can't see Brighton being that fussed about reaching an arbitrary number of points now that they've won the title.
saintrich Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 A lot of people were expecting Huddersfield to drop points at Charlton and MK Dons and it didn't happen, so I've given up hoping for favours from other sides. It's in our hands - so let's just win 2 games.
trousers Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 Anyone know what hotel the Huddersfield players are staying in.....?
Liquidshokk Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 They're bed sharing with the brighton players.
Prince Jazzbo Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 If Brighton lose or draw with Huddersfield. It would mean that they haven't beaten either us or Huddersfield this season. If I was a Brighton player I would like to make a point of proving that they are the best team in the league by beating at least one of the challengers nearest to them. I think they'll go for the win, but personally I think it shouldn't matter. If we consider ourselves good enough we should be capable of winning all three games.
hoozonside10 Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 If we match Huddersfields result on Saturday, we will be 95% certainty to be promoted IMHO . We could lose at Plymouth, but as long as we beat Walsall (who will be fighting for their lives mind) Huddersfield cannot catch us.
Gorgiesaint Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 I will be putting a bet on brighton losing. Its a no brainer. You're right, with my record of breaking unbeaten runs by backing sides, I'm off down the bookies now to get some pennies on Udders!
EastleighSoulBoy Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 Today's hard copy of the Echo (tried to find this on the web site but cannot?) has two articles. Noone telling how much they (including the bitter man) wanted to beat us. The bitter man now trotting out the excuse 'what with the trophy being presented and the last game at the Withdean it's going to be hard to focus my players on the game'.
Lighthouse Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 Stick your house on the Udders. Brighton will not win this one.
Jimmy_D Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 I'd laugh myself silly if they laid down against Huddersfield and then we ended up catching them because of Plymouth not making it to the end of the season, although that'd be tempered by feeling terrible for Plymouth.
Saint_Jonny Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 Cant see anything but a Hudds win, Brighton are on holiday already, and you get the feeling they really are petty and bitter enough to want to stop us getting promotion.

Although Plymouth will make the end of the season. The Football League just isn't going to expunge a whole season's results for 1 day and 1 game. If anything drastic happens on 6/5 the result on the Saturday will be a simple win by forfait for their opponents.They are not going to recalculate everything for 1 game, if there was any likelyhood of that then Brighton wouldn't be getting the trophy on Saturday now would they.

Noone telling how much they (including the bitter man) wanted to beat us. The bitter man now trotting out the excuse 'what with the trophy being presented and the last game at the Withdean it's going to be hard to focus my players on the game'. That suggests the game will be thrown. Well done Poyet, dignified as usual! I can see it now, and am tempted to make a bet on udders getting a victory. The more they pull stunts like this the more i find my contempt growing for the little bummers, and the more I want to see them struggle next season. The stadium will be a poisoned chalice for them next season, as players will have top class facilities to prepare (and coaches) for matches compared to secondary school facilities provided at the withdean running track. The supporters will be able to actually support, rain or shine, their team rather than being stuck half a mile from the pitch! They will have the problem our players have mentioned recently - other teams upping their game at SMS It annoys me that a club so insignificant as brighton has been on my radar this season.
Kingsbridge Saint Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 Brighton have massively overachieved this season and Huddersfield, like us, are a class apart. Expect a Huddersfield win.
Wade Garrett Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 I really couldn't give a toss who wins between Brighton and Huddersfield. We need to win 2 out of 3 games, end of story. Poyet has shown how charmless he is, and is a total bellend on the touchline with his card waving gestures. Petty, small-minded man.
Pat from Poole Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 Brighton have massively overachieved this season and Huddersfield, like us, are a class apart. Expect a Huddersfield win. Agree with this. Think Murray may also be injured, he's a big miss for them. Huddersfield will be unbeaten until the end of the season.
solentstars Posted 28 April, 2011 Posted 28 April, 2011 i can only see huddersfield picking up 1 point at brighton if they are lucky tt and think they will lose.
