Saints, the club other managers want to be like

And Brighton are the ones obsessed with us, eh?

 

Whats this, the 4th/5th topic on them? Who cares?

 

You do know we're playing them on Saturday, right? Most of the media coverage surrounding this fixture will focus on the pseudo-rivalry and will inevitably be a bit controversial.

 

I'll be interested to read about Poyet wanting B.RightOn to be like Saints, although it'll probably be something like using a small number of players and taking chances blah blah blah.

Well some fans on both sides must otherwise there wouldn't be so many threads here and on Northstand chat about saints/brighton .............

 

It doesn't stop it being thoroughly odd though.

 

We had a faux rivalry with Brighton last year. This year they've got Palace back, and we've got that lot down the road. I can't work out why there's an abundance of divs from both sides who want to keep whatever ridiculousness we had with Brighton still going. Their fans acted like a complete load of bellends last season, but that just showed how small time they were that they cared so much about a wind-up, flippant comment from Nigel Adkins. Move on, for goodness sake.

Bit harsh. Let's get this in context: we've only got threads on them at the moment because they're our next opponents. And this thread only exists because their manager has said something about us. I recognise we have more threads on them than for a typical upcoming opponent, but our joint promotion should also factored in.

Who cares if it is the 3rd or 4th thread about them? As mentioned, they are our next opponents and like it or not, there is clearly a bit of rivalry built up over the last two seasons. Why do people get so uppity about anyone caring about about another team other than pompey?

 

It will be interesting to see what Poyet has to say tomorrow anyway.
