The authentic voice of #bhafc fan culture. This is Brighton & Hove Albion in real life. In print, online, home and away. www.dogmabrighton.co.uk

Diego Gomez is the sweetest striker of a football in the PL Beating the supposedly 8th best team in the league without leaving 2nd gear bodes extremely well for our ambitions this season Can we have the unsettling swoopy seagull display at every match please? #bhafc 1/4

Away days in Spain are next level. Great food, cold beer, beautiful cities. 5 away games on the bounce adequately navigated. Squad rotation worked well but perhaps contributed to a flat first 45. What a shame more #BHAFC fans weren't allowed in. Plenty of empty seats was a frustrating site. 1/4

A huge massive performance. Dogged and resilient, inspired and ruthless. Our first ever win at Ban City… at what might have been our last opportunity to do this for a while. Perfect timing. Verbruggen was excellent, as he has been for most of the season. A world class goalkeeper. 1/4 #BHAFC

A big opportunity to be in with a strong chance of winning some silverware has passed us by. The League Cup draw is wide open and we had a great chance to get to Wembley. Only ourselves, and an unfortunate run of luck, to blame. 1/6 #bhafc

Their best ever period is already over and ours is just beginning. Have you ever seen a more timid, tepid, weak Glaziers side? This team does not relent, every week, from the off, they’re sprinting over you and shooting on site. 1/2 #BHAFC

After the break & all the hype this was the one we were worried about - what a win A very patient performance - we didn’t force it. Just let it play out & take the chances when they come. “I don’t want us just to be known as a nice team anymore” said Fab after the game; amen to this mentally. 1/3

Happy Birthday #BHAFC you beautiful mad bastards - love you more than ever. X Incredible display of demented hyper-intense footballing perfection. This is what challenging the establishment looks like. Where does that rank amongst all-timers in our 125 years?. 1/5

Never right off Gross. He ran the show and was in the middle of everything. When he's purring he's the greatest to ever wear the stripes. Cov has to be the most inaccessible ground in the top flight. (Thankfully?) it doesn't look like we’ll be back next season. 1/3 #BHAFC

A tepid first half partially atoned for by a decent second 45 (after the forward line stopped playing with their backs to goal). We’ve seen this trend before under Fab haven’t we. The De Cuyper - Luka set piece partnership is going to deliver BIG this season. 1/4 #BHAFC

Bild

Scoring 3 is a positive but conceding 4 against opposition barely out of 2nd gear is a concern. We showed some fight to stay in the game. It could have been 4/5-0 after half an hour. Make the foul & take the yellow Matts - Chelsea’s 3rd goal was the moment the game got away from us. 1/3 #BHAFC

Tromso we will remember you and we wish you well for the future. European football is THE BEST. Home or away. Get involved. Did the new South Stand singing section make a difference? Who cares; what matters is that the club tried something. More of this approach in the future please. 1/3 #BHAFC

Bild

Total heavy metal gegenpressing too much for Villa to handle as we blew them away. Are the team finally as fit as Fab has wanted them to be? Luka is already a better central defender than JPVH. You can’t ever write off Lewis Dunk. He elevates proceedings with his class and quality. 1/2 #BHAFC

Bild

2 wins, 4 goals scored, 0 conceded (from this mini-series of home friendlies); let’s head out to Tromso with positivity and confidence. Rutter and Hinsh are now our first-choice number 9 and number 10. Discuss. Svoboda and Yalcouye were the pick of the many subs that came on. 1/3 #BHAFC

Falmer still looks beautiful & it’s still a pleasure to be back there 15 years on from its opening. A comfortable win albeit against disinterested opposition; BV didn’t have a save to make. Let’s hope Bologna offer more… venturing into the Arctic Circle undercooked could be disastrous. 1/3 #BHAFC

A fitting end to a funny season Europe again ole ole - a Conf League campaign should be loads of FUN Fab deserves a lot of credit for achieving Euro football considering the unbalanced nature of the squad at his disposal 1/3 #bhafc

Bild

A BIG performance is required on Sunday to help make up for that shambles. Elland Road remains an inaccessible ball ache of a stadium. The tinker man was back and the team suffered, no cohesion, rhythm or attacking spark. #bhafc 1/3

Bild

The new outside bar makes for a welcome alternative to the Terrace pre-match A master-class in game management from Fab and the lads. Compared to the same fixture last season, does this show Fabs progression? Baleba putting himself in the shop window just in time 1/3 #bhafc
