Stas said that the Albion were on top, esp. Ince, Holla, JFC, until Hughton changed to 4-4-2 and brought Best on at 55 mins then it was Blackpool. Not that Badock was doing particularly well.
Blackpool did appreciably better when they brought their two subs on.
It sounded like a 0-0 with only...
Give us a goal!
Stats say we have changed to a 4-4-2 formation with Best partnering O'Grady upfront..
It feels like a frustrating home match of the less fluid kind.
If so, we should come a bit stronger near the end?
Why isn't Buckley playing for Sunderland? Is he injured?
Hughton's use of...
HT 0-0
It sounded a horrid game.
Stats say the three of Holla, Ince and JFC have 31% of possession out of 59% for the Albion. That is more than the total of the six Blackpool forward players.

Recovery by Rohan Ince. A very useful player.
Discussion about the pitch. It seems more like Worthing beach than the Adur. Hard underneath.
Commentators have not moaned about the cold yet!
Baldock getting compliments for a move that didn't happen. Running off the ball. It did not actually...
Raising my aerial improved the reception. A few seconds ahead of Seagulls Player.
Barnes misses for Burnley against Sunderland. Then Sunderland go 1-0 up.
Radio gone off.
Buckley not started for Sunderland and not in the squad.
Come on the Albion !
Baldock goes close. First attempt on goal.
Holla takes second corner from the right.
Long diagonal balls (I thought we had got rid of Gardner!)
http://www.whoscored.com/Matches/830264/Live/England-Championship-2014-2015-Blackpool-Brighton says both teams set up 4-2-3-1...
Baldock discussion on Radio Sussex. I think Baldock may have been allocated the second striker role for this game instead of Tex? (got his wishes) I prefer Tex and I much prefer Lualua to both of them.
But I have not see enough of Baldock yet. Not sure how much acceleration he has got? Fast...
4-5-1 from Blackpool? The third team after Wigan and Arsenal (first hour) to crowd the midfield against the Albion. I think as an opposing manager this is what I would do.
In our eagerness to score, I hope we don't put too many balls forward that are intercepted and that we are more patient.
Baldock must be playing as second striker. I think we will try and get the ball forward a lot more and hope that Blackpool's defence makes mistakes.
Not so much conservative as abandoning the passing style.
If he was still here Colunga would be the best, but Baldock, Tex and Solly March are...
I have my doubts about the result of this and predicted a 0-0 draw. It would very good to win with a clean sheet and even better of we get more than five goals clear. Teams don't get relegated (do they?) with a positive goal difference.
I have a sneaking suspicion that Orlandi and Delfouneso...
Squads and stuff: http://www.whoscored.com/Matches/830264/Preview
We are now listed as 4-4-1-1 in shape.
Weather is warmer in Blackpool than down here.
That's more like a Capello style playing the team above. Tex (loanee) is a key player if that is the side.
Not seen this ref before.
