Hope Huddrsfield can beat Saints to second place now.
Indeed, Brighton supporters arguably have greater scope for optimism at the moment than any others in the Football League.
I'm so happy for my team, I was 10 years old the last time we went to Wembley for an FA Cup final and we outplayed United today
....the most incredible miss ever. A

I do have a nasty inkling about bolton. hope it's unfounded...
Nai - The empty seats were because there was an allocation of 25,000 to each club, the rest going to god knows who (Club Wembley?. Really stupid considering they could have sold out.
Wembley really should do something about this, it can't have gone unnoticed that at old Wembley every final was a sell-out but maybe they don't give a shit about supporters either as long as they make money.
I'm really looking forward to the final this year, two clubs and sets of players for whom winning the trophy would mean loads, two sets of fans not jaded by multilple visits year after year, it'll be a proper occassion like the cup finals I remember from the 70s and 80s.
Well done brighton now dont give up until after you beat Southampton on saturday? Please!
I've refrained from posting on this topic as a Blue but the way that Utd and some of the media have portrayed it it sounds like Balotelli started a riot. He didn't go anywhere near in front of the Utd fans but just raised his shirt in the centre circle & span round kissing his badge. Anderson went batshit and started pulling his shirt and Ferdinand joined in.Balotelli, the supposed hothead, immature, short-fused shame to English football then kept his cool whilst surrounded by Utd players. He's a 20 year old kid and Ferdinand is a 32 year old supposed Captain of England FFS. At one point Ferdinand had Mancini by the collar, pushed his fingers in David Platts face as Van de Saar pushed a Sky cameraman over to stop the incident being filmed. the lot of them... and...you can fuck off 'an all
