Palace are a bit of a bogey team to Brighton aren’t they ?

No doubt loving it too !

 

EDIT: 1-1 now .

Well they certainly don’t like each other very much. It’s both teams biggest grudge match.

Palace-Charlton?

 

Anything involving Brighton is an affectation. 

[Guest Bilo]

Hating Brighton is like hating blancmange. 

 

I have stronger feelings about tarmac.

[UniFox21]

God this phone light show looks bloody awful 

[UniFox21]

Neither are penalties

[Jaspa]

Thomas on the bench these days then

[Paninistickers]

Fckn hell..I forget how bad VAR is. It's a despicable intrusion into the game.. surely all of us would prefer honest bad decisions. 

 

Chris Wilder btw looks like a old dad on his second marriage, watching his kid at a Sunday morning match. 

[Wymsey]

Think this will stay at 0-0, much to Villa's frustration.

[fox_favourite]

Sheffield United are woeful.

Yeh, he's basically been tied in a knot by just about every winger they have faced.

 

Brooks looks decent in his position though.

Nah. I think Villa will get a rollicking at half time and come out better.

 

Don't think it will be high scoring, but they'll definitely bag a goal.

Between the two, Villa are clearly the better side. Sheffield United are just defending deep. 3 touches in the 1sy half in the vill box is woeful. Only a matter of time before villa score.

For sure, Villa are maintaining possession, trying to attack etc, just lacking that quality in the final third. 

[UniFox21]

I can see Villa dropping back to mid table within 2 years. 

Kamara and luiz will be at Man City/Arsenal/Liverpool. I can see Watkins moving to Arsenal. 

[Vacamion]

 

If Villa don't score I'd be extremely surprised.

 

All Villa. Blades hanging on.

 

 

 

 

[UniFox21]

Villa playing is holding Foderingham's arm ffs.

 

Irrelevant of phase of play, you can't be letting that

Stupid from Baldock just blast it out of play

Edited 22 December 2023 by Tuna

[Super_horns]

Bailey has come into good form in recent weeks .

[Tuna]

Should be ruled out

[st albans fox]

Surely sheff u had more than enough time to clear that 

How far back are you going ?.

[UniFox21]

Without being held, keeper comes and collects or punches. 

 

Carragher with an extremely poor take. Yes Blades could have cleared it, but the entire phase of play leading to the goal doesn't happen if the keeper isn't impeded 

[Vacamion]

 

Sheff United to get a really dodgy VAR penalty up the other end and then shithouse it, would be quite the giggle.

 

The crowd would go mental.  

[Aus Fox]

4 minutes to sort that out, this is why VAR is ruining the game. Bloody ridiculous, if the VAR has spotted a foul, why do we then need to waste more time with the ref going over to the screen.

Yes it’s a foul but surely we are in the next phase of attacking play when Sheff united have control and give the ball away again in the box
