Premiership bound...... (3 Viewers)

[steve72]

I'm not talking about the Sky Blues here so sit back down

Lets analyse both clubs shall we?


Coventry's signings

Joe Murphy - Free relegated Championship team

Chris Dunn - undisclosed league 2 team

Oh that's it(scratches head)


Brighton's signings

Craig Mackail-Smith 2.5 million - 3.25 million League 1 top goal scorer

Will Hoskins 500k -800k 20 goals in a relegated league 1 team

Romain Vincelot 100k 12 goals from midfield in a relegated league 1 team

Roland Bergkamp undisclosed

Will Buckley 1 million Championship team

Kazenga LuaLua 6 month loan deal to permanent from Newcastle

Spent around 4.5 million. Sold Bennett for 1.5 million.

Seriously can you compete with us? All season tickets sold at our new stadium 18400.

Waiting list growing and further expansion looks very likely. Capacity 23k rising to 30k

A very rich chairman ploughing money into my club and the best manager outside the Premiership looking after team affairs.

There's no point in being jealous lads but you have to admit we should be in the Premiership in the next couple of years. Brighton are going up while Coventry are heading the other way.

Discuss.

On paper it's all very obvious - but football's played on grass.

Come back in 13 weeks and talk to us then.

 

[Gaskell]

Someone's got trigger happy, prove yourself. big fish in a small pond.

 

[Macca]

How random. Can t you go and bother someone local? I don t know...maybe portsmouth? They re south coast plastic cockneys too.

 

[BurbageSkyBlues]

Pride comes before a fall.........

 

[CovKingChris]

So what you've explained there is, yes you have good support. But you've spent 4.5million on a bunch of average, if not below average, championship players.

 

[SkyBluesAndy]

I think you forget that we already have a team of championship players whereas you have just spent all that money just to try to come up to par with us, I'm afraid your team is still laced with league 1 players so I wouldn't get too excited. Mackail-Smith couldn't stop Peterborough finishing last in this league, don't know how he suddenly became over rated cos he wasn't anything special last time he was in this league.

 

[BurbageSkyBlues]

Good support? Where were they all for the last thirty years, when you fell from grace (ie the old FirstDivision)?

Once reality kicks in, and the gloss of the shiny new stadium begins to fade, come back and let us know you are still so cock-a-hoop sure that you are big time charlies.

Pmsl.........

 

[Lets all sing together]

Brighton has long been known as the number one gay seaside resort in the south of England.

Quite what that has anything to do with their players, club and supporters is beyond me.

Unless it's some sort of anachronistic slur...

I live and work in the real world, not this PC one , in the run up to this game I think there will be a few having a bit of banter about it being a gay town.

You may say "i'm stuck in the 80s'" "how childish, we've moved on from that kind of talk" etc.... but i'll be frank, I work on a building site and the're will be some hilarious pisstaking about this.
So if you're pro gay, then that's your choice, i'm just talking in my language

 

[CovisGod]

Is this guy for real ? He's obviously either 12 years old or and idiot....

Before getting all my dads bigger than your dad on a board that doesn't in the slightest concern you wait until we spank you 4-0 at home, then we'll see who's "premiership bound" or bound to go straight back down

It's not being 'politically correct' to speak out against prejudice. It's just called being decent.

There's a difference between a bit of banter, and connecting being gay with being 'hilarious' or the subject to 'piss taking'.

Additionally, you don't make a choice to not discriminate. You make an active choice to discriminate.

 

[Houchens Head]

Can't say I rate Brighton much at all. Average Div 1 promoted team, favourites for relegation fodder. Fans ecstatic coz they got promoted, but will soon realise they are in a different league.

 

[tippex9]

They'll do really well, decent signings and the momentum of promotion....

Then a big club takes Poyet and the freefall begins, back to hosting Rochdale with 5000 loyal fans.

Enjoy your sunny days in a typical British summer

Couldn't the idea of a Brighton fan registering on Championship forums to show off about Roland Bergkamp be the most embarrassing thing in the thread rather than bringing 'LOLZ UR GAY' into it?

Defending homophobia as being part of the 'real world' too, I hope 'real people' with brain cells don't get to read such shit.

 

[SkyBluegilby]

What the f@ck does this have to do with Cov? Are we rivals with you now? Can't keep up with all the small tin pot clubs dropping in and out of our league.

 

[Coventry La La La]

Brighton in 2 seasons from now ^^^ ointlaugh:

 

[pusbccfc]

In 2 years you will be in league 2
Watching us with a young side with gael, wilson and clarke tearing the prem aha

 

[CovInEssex]

Well I wanted Brighton to do well before that little rant.

Fuck em, their ground will be worse then the Ricoh in a couple of years.

 

[sparky]

Can i just ask why is a brighton fan on a cov fans forum? And have you posted that on every championship teams forums aswel? Pointless and childish i aint even guna rise to u trying to wind people up

But it does offer a stiffening up the back four type pun...which i would never do of course

 

[Cobi Jones's Dreads]

Are Brighton i forgot this club even existed.

Is this the same club who had "Skint" as their shirt sponsor?

The same club where Adam Virgo was your best player?

The same club that played at this ground for years?

Oh the joys, please lads remember where you are from your nothing but a League 1 team punching well above their weight, we'll see you next season in League 1! :jerkit:

 

[Ernie Machin]

Successfull troll was successful.



I bet they've never heard the gay stuff before. :jerkit:

 

[ccfc2011]

Brighton who

 

[Ernie Machin]

And Hove Albion.


It's hard to hate them really, despite the OP's best efforts.

 

[ccfc2011]

I'mARealWizard you are a fool.

 

[ccfc2011]

Why are we talking about brighton

 

[Houchens Head]

Why are we talking about brighton

May have misheard it as "Ryton"!!

 

[Nick]

Bit of a random post?

Will close it before it gets a bit silly!
