Match Recap: Leicester 2-3 Brighton
‘From the sublime to the ridiculous’ is an often overused cliche, but I can’t think of a better phrase to sum up the Albion’s game against Leicester at the King Power stadium yesterday. Whilst some away fans were sat still, stuck in traffic on various motorways, their team was on an absolute rollercoaster ride that…

Match Recap: Brighton 1-4 Manchester City
I believe it was Homer who once said, ‘Trying is the first step towards failure’, Homer Simpson that is. A little facetious perhaps, but all the same an apt summation of the Albion’s 4-1 defeat to Manchester City on Sunday afternoon. For a short period the Albion seemed to grow into the game. In particular…

Match Result: Brighton 0-4 Manchester Utd (FA Cup QF)
As many of you know, I don’t have the capacity to write full recaps of cup games, and in this case I am truly glad I don’t have to. We were outplayed whistle to whistle on Saturday night and it would have been a serious challenge to come up with some positives to take from…

Match Recap: Bristol City 3-7 Brighton
This game went through so many highs and lows that at one stage I thought I was at Alton Towers. I wasn’t of course, I was glued to the action taking place at Ashton Gate as the Albion took on Bristol City in a game which would have major ramifications for both winner and loser.…

Match Recap: Brighton 0-1 Liverpool
I’d love to start one of these recaps with positivity, discuss the improvement in style and talk about the momentum the Albion are building. Sadly today will not be that day, and this will not be that article. Truthfully, the game at Broadfield on Sunday against Liverpool was the living embodiment of a phrase often…

Match Recap: Manchester Utd 2-0 Brighton
After a tumultuous week, Brighton headed north to Leigh Sports Village with hopes of repeating the performance they put in against Manchester United earlier in the season. Interim Head Coach, Mikey Harris, had just 60 minutes to train with his new charges on the grass before this game and at times Albion looked like a…

Melissa Phillips – Stats All Folks
I’ve gone on record to say that I felt Melissa Phillips should have been given more time before Brighton parted company with her. However, all signs point to some sort of breakdown between the two parties following her press conference on Thursday. The situation clearly advanced at pace and by the same evening she was…

Match Recap: Brighton 0-3 Chelsea
A rare Saturday outing saw Brighton take on the might of Chelsea at the Broadfield. It was always going to be a tough ask for the Albion against the league leaders and current WSL champions – and so it proved. Although the Blues dominated the play and possession early, Brighton pressed well and held their…

Match Recap: Brighton 3-2 Bristol City
If there is such a thing as a six-pointer after just half a season, Brighton’s game against Bristol City had all the hallmarks of one. If the Albion won it would lift them above Leicester and Everton into 8th. Lose and the Robins would go level with them on points with only West Ham to…
