When in a hole stop digging - at the end of the day we didn't turn up.
They were not all that but neither were we.
Yes. But it's not about fouls when you're on a yellow, it's about contact or initiating it. Baldock made the ref make a decision and he didn't need to.
That is stupidity. A spinal said the same.

That relates to BZ. I agree we were poor no improvement from Reading

Does Kayal and Sidwell really work for us in your opinion? I've seen it once at home to SW in the play offs

So your opinion is based on listening to Warren Aspinal on BBC Radio Sussex!!

He's wrong. Baldock has to close down the keeper. He runs past keeper who kicks him. Not a yellow, no blame attached to Baldock at all. This is a million miles away from Dunk's challenges last year. You may as well say any tackle by any player gives the ref a decision to make.
I can see why the ref might have thought it was a foul from his angle but he's wrong.
I was wound up by a few bits of the ref display.
1. Played advantage and then it was a good two seconds later he lost the ball in a tackle unrelated to the foul. This is not rugby.
2. As soon as a couple of Newcastle players were booked for mouthing off he was always going to book the next Brighton player to commit a foul. He did.
3. Knockaert was booked for kicking ball away. This is fine. Two mins later shelvey did exactly the same thing but as he was on a yellow he got a warning. Colback also let the ball go out for goal kick and as soon as the ball crossed the line he booted it miles. Again why not a booking?
4. Both teams were theatrical. He needed to get on top of it.
None of the above means I don't think the best team won.

Keeper kicked him, Baldock didn't even leave a trailing leg, just ran past him. Never a yellow.
That's consistency for you. Almost everytime we got the ball we were fouled.
Their keeper knew exactly what he was doing when he got sent off, and I hope he gets the stick he deserves when we play them at home.

So the team and Hughton get found out and it's the refs fault?

Don't be ridiculous. Read the earlier posts, I didn't see the post match analysis. Just seen it now and contact was made. Of course it was initiated by the GK, but it is incredibly naïve to put yourself in that position.

If you are on a yellow, you surely act differently than if you aren't. If Murray had done it, we'd still have had 11 on the pitch.
I've just seen it again now and yes the keeper kick Baldock, but it is not a 'gentleman's sport', every team is going to try and take advantage. Baldock was brainless IMO.
