An extremely tedious draw seems likely, with this particular 'derby' not being shown again on TV for a very long while, unless their third 11 turns out to be better than ours. Our whole approach to this game suggests a win for us is extremely unlikely.

Can you hear the Brighton sing? I can't hear a ******* thing!

Unfortunately, a game neither team really wants. Let Brighton have it unless our U23s fancy a run in the FA Cup?

Denial is not just a river in Egypt

It’ll take more than a goal against Weed’s under 23’s for that!

No idea, seeing as both sides will be playing unfamiliar teams. Unless our attacking options from the U23s are particularly lively, I can't see us being very effective in attack without our usual providers.

As I get older I realise the FA Cup is only for those teams who usually win things and have the monopoly of the best players and in spades. So every year the usual suspects win.
I suspect if Woy could play Punchy even on crutches he would, to save the team for the more important job of staying up. Let's hope the team's toss a coin in privacy before the game, give us a show and move on with little expense of energy.
1-0 either way and who cares?
