[Brighton Sky Blue]

We can all think about that, I have my own hopes of what we can do and if we can keep up how we are playing right now it's achievable!

It does also make a mockery of last season's management early in the season-it took us twice as many games to reach 11 points!

Manset on Wilson Off.

Shame that..

Most of us realise how inept Andy Thorns management was..

More a mockery of Fisher and Waggott's decision to keep him on and hand him the whole summer 'bounce back' budget...

people were giving presley stick not so long ago

 

[sw88]

Anybody know how many have turned out for cheese and pickle sandwiches on the hill?

Don't know what's worse; going to Northampton to sit on a hill, or cheese and pickle sandwiches.

 

[Paxman II]

I think your wires are crossed-I'm not complaining at the results and performances being achieved under the present circumstances! Pressley has done very well thus far but it just makes you wonder where we could be headed but for such terrible off field management.

I don't doubt that at all but you know you can't just assume it would have been so. I've maintained that while we are at Sixfields the pressure of not playing at the Ricoh, so poor was our form there always, that it can almost be a blessing in disguise as far as the team's form is concerned! No great expectations at Sixfileds, no large crowd pressure quickly on their backs and what do you know? - we are scoring for fun and form is terrific.

What about sitting on a cheese and pickle sandwich?

 

[Sterling Archer]

Is it pronounced "Man-Set" or "Mon-Say"?

This commentary is annoying me.

Being stuck at work 6-6 today like me.

 

[sw88]

goals should be on sky sports straight after the match as no FL show tonight

Already shown our first. Poor goalkeeping, but who cares

Lame shot by Adams, palmed away when should have done better

 

[Marty]

Willis on Moussa off.

 

[Marty]

Game over 2-0.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

FT 2-0

Fortress sixfields

I speak French having worked there for 15 years. The Southern French accent would pronounce that 'Monsay'

That could equally be attributed to Pressley's management skills; regardless every good result is costing the club hundreds of thousands in missed revenue.

The council cost the club hundreds of thousands over the years.

 

[Nick]

And we are off the bottom

 

[Astute]

"Enjoy the form while it lasts" That's negative! We are playing really well at the moment and our young kids who were born and bred in the area are doing us proud forget what happens in January or the end of the season right now we are winning games and playing well lets enjoy that

Yeah lets forget about Jan until we sell our main goalscorer in Jan again.

I am happier than most. But know what is ahead. If we were Southampton we would wait for a massive bid so we could build a whole squad. We are SISU City. Nuff said.

Tbh I'd rather at on one than eat one!

Without derailing the thread, they did but we also signed up to it and handed over our share in the company we now seek to destroy.

I don't doubt that either BSB but they have committed to funding the 3 years away. If that leads to the clubs own stadium then there will be a lot of apologist on here. Ideally of course it could end sooner and a better deal altogether than what they had to a return at the Ricoh. In the end the long term financial security is what matters.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Good clean sheet as well

You said the same in the last window and it never happened, no guarantees, get the hatred for SISU checked out..

PUSB!!

 

[Nick]

Can we keep this about today's game?

 

[RoboCCFC90]

Can we keep this about today's game?

I hope so, we should be happy as punch, we have just win 2-0 and finally wiped out the ten point deduction!b

 

[sw88]

We're not bottom anymore, we're not bottom anymore

Disagree but will leave it there as this forum has been choc full of similar threads!

 

[Clive Plattini]

With the fifth best goal difference in the league, we are gonna climb pretty quickly from here. I'm thinking play offs this season. Woop. PUSB

 

[SlowerThanPlatt]

Can someone record and upload the goals when they get shown on SSN?

 

[Covstar]

Totally dominant that game. Off the bottom of the table this week and hopefully off the relegation zone next week. Well done Mr Pressley u have galvinised this squad and made us a really attractive team to watch. Just a shame it wasn't played in front of 10 thousand odd supporters at the Ricoh.

Play up sky blues and long may this continue!

Long term SISU. Long term financial stability.

Two sentences that contradict each other.
