Match Review: Tottenham 0-1 Brighton
If there ever was a mid-table six-pointer, this game was it. A win would push Brighton back into 5th place after a Liverpool victory over Manchester Utd briefly dropped us to 6th. A loss would have left us 7th and on an equally poor run of results as those that were positive prior to the…

Match Review: Brighton 2-2 Chelsea
Well knock me down with a feather. I think most fans were hopeful that Brighton could take their positive performance against Chelsea away into this return fixture, but to go toe-to-toe with them and be unfortunate not to take all three points? Not sure too many would have made that bet. In truth, the Blues’…

Match Review: West Ham 3-1 Brighton
I have to be honest, this one was a bitter pill to swallow. I have said before, there were reasons why we didn’t get results against Liverpool and Crystal Palace, and Manchester United away was always going to be tough. Couple that with a heavy fixture schedule and some challenging cup ties (for various reasons)…

Match Review: Brighton 1-1 Crystal Palace
This was supposed to be the game when things got back on track, when we snapped out of our current poor run of form and returned to winning ways at home against our ‘rivals’ who currently sit bottom of the Women’s Super League. Well you know what they say about best laid plans… For a…

Match Review: Liverpool 2-1 Brighton
It feels like a long time since we’ve had a nice WSL fixture to sink our teeth into, but after the performance on Friday night against Liverpool, it might be fair to question whether the players really are back from the winter break. Sure there may have been some rust given that our FA Cup…

Match Review: Brighton 3-2 West Ham
We found ourselves at the Amex Stadium once more for a Saturday lunchtime tussle with West Ham. Was it straightforward, no, did we almost snatch a draw from the jaws of victory, yes – but this is Brighton – we rarely do things the easy way. Sir Alex Ferguson coined the phrase ‘squeaky bum time’,…

Match Review: Arsenal 5-0 Brighton
In theory playing on a Friday night gave me the entire weekend to write this review. Truth be told though, it’s taken until today (Monday) for me to recover enough from the 5-0 drubbing by Arsenal to get it done. Needless to say this probably won’t be a positive read for Albion fans, but I…

Match Review: Brighton 1-0 Leicester City
It was a grey and misty Sunday afternoon as Leicester City were the visitors to the Broadfield Stadium. The word ‘grey’ could so often have been used to describe the Albion’s home form in recent years, but not so thus far, as Brighton are now three wins from three in Crawley and are still undefeated…

Match Review: Brighton 1-1 Manchester Utd
What a fabulous afternoon it turned out to be on Saturday as the mighty Brighton & Hove Albion took on, checks notes, some team called Manchester United. Not only was a new record crowd set for an Albion women’s home game, with 8369 fans in attendance, but we showed that we can compete with these…
