It's one of the MB football clashes this Tuesday with Preston North End playing Brighton and Hove Albion at Deepdale. Now how about a bit of a bet, no prizes, just for fun. (I'd offer a prize but I neither have one, nor do I have the money to pay for one)

So who do you think will win? And by what score?

Preston need the points to keep in with a chance of a play-off place, while Brighton need them to get a more comfortable distance from the drop. Back in August Brighton beat Preston 1-0 by a Marlon Broomes own goal (I was in the barbers with him not long ago ;)) but Preston have an impressive home record having lost just two league games at Deepdale this season, and they've lost only once in their last 16 league games home and away. Brighton have lost 10 games out of 19 on the road but have beaten teams such as Sunderland, West Ham and Sheffield United this season.

Whoever is closest to the correct score wins.

I'm gonna say a 2-1 win for Preston.

P.S. I'd put this in sport but no one would see it

I reckon it will be Preston to win 2-0.
Sorry ils.

Flyo I have no idea what you are talking about but go on I will say 5-4!

1/2 =768




.

I would like to say it will be 1-2 but I think it will be 2-1

I hope I am proved wrong!

Mr P says 2-0 Preston, but that's already gone, so we'll say 3-0. Sorry ils. Blame Mr P.

3-1 to Brighton 1-1 in the first half then 2 more for Brighton in the second half
2 yellow cards one for each side one goal scored from a free kick. 5 corners to Brighton and 3 to Preston oops seeming a tad biased her so better shut up.

I'll wager 200 soms on Brighton winning and will eat the egg off my face if they lose.

You are a good Sussex girl Mazwad :D

Crikey Mazwad, that's detailed. Ok then, 2-1 to Preston with the centre forward (do they still have such things as centre forwards?) scoring for Preston in the twenty second minute and pulling his shirt over his head to reveal a message in Egyptian Hieroglyphs which roughly translates to "take me Big Boy".

One minute before half time, Brighton equalise through an own goal scored by Preston's gk who has taken a large bribe to try and fix the match.

In the 52nd minute, the stadium announcer asks Mr Peter Jubbley to go to the hospital immediately as his wife has just given birth to a six pound two ounce baby boy.

In the 63rd minute Preston bring on a substitue called Lucky who is border collie cross, but as it doesn't say anywhere in the FA rules that dogs can't play, Lucky goes on to score Preston's second goal in the 74th minute.

In the 80th minute Lucky bursts the ball for which he is given a yellow card. In the 82nd minute he bites the linesman in the tunnel and is sent off.

The rest of the match passes without incident.

You are a good Sussex girl Mazwad :D

Well I did suss the sex quite early on its the contraception I had trouble with.

Ooh, didn't know I could give people SOMs... whoever wins can have 1000.

It looks like Patsy's got it, Fly :sad:

Well done Patsy have you a soms bank account for me to transfer the 200 to.
Sorry Ils hoped they would do better than that.

Sorry Ils hoped they would do better than that.

So did I maz, they are now in the Relegation zone :cry:

Sorry ils but I think the only thing you can be thankful of is that it was only three. It was an amazing atmosphere and I think Preston were lucky Brighton got a man sent off because we normally lose concentration in the second half, but being a man up gave us extra chance to keep control of the game. I think Brighton had about 1 shot in the whole match, but saying that they never gave up like most teams would, they kept defending very well and kept attempting to attack. I hope Brighton stay up, and they're gonna fight right until the end. It's so tight at the bottom that any of 5 or 6 teams could go down.

Just looked at your fixtures and you're gonna have to fight pretty hard! Though I suppose Rotherham, Burnley and Leicester have nothing to play for now.

In the 63rd minute Preston bring on a substitue called Lucky who is border collie cross, but as it doesn't say anywhere in the FA rules that dogs can't play, Lucky goes on to score Preston's second goal in the 74th minute.


There was a cat on the pitch!
