“There are a lot of atmospheres that can crack In this round of games, there is, right? Rob Knapp writes. “At the City Ground, Luton, Villa… Tonight, as a casual TV viewer, there’s nothing like the hilarious shots of the action, the shaky camera, and the oddly awkward ‘that guy behind me’ comment that comes through loud and clear. There is nothing. I’m looking forward to it.
“I apologize in advance if it’s been 0-0 for the third game in a row, but I’d bet my life that the game between Luton and Brighton doesn’t end without a goal.”
Especially – and how unfathomable this is – Brighton’s last two league games have been goalless. You’re right about the atmosphere. Selhurst Park is just around the corner, but I think they might turn around once the home crowd turns around.
Look at this old scoundrel.
Sir Alex Ferguson’s foresight is astonishing.
