Brighton & Hove Albion Vs Ipswich Town ***Official Match Thread***

[nwgull]

Play offs in Championship and Brighton does not work. We must be top 2.

We'd have as much chance as the other 3 teams. Probably more given how strong our first 11 might be if we didn't have injuries to 8 first team players!!

It's very easy to say in hindsight, but what on earth were we doing turning down that bid from Fulham?

I blame Barber

 

[Driver8]

I'm not, just that I don't think Dunk would be in the starting 11 to make these mistakes if Greer and Hune weren't injured.

He was before they were both injured.

 

[GT49er]

Haven't they hit the woodwork twice?

We've hit the bar too.

Yeah like we did V Palace and Derby?

Dunk is usually good when partnered with a senior CB. When he leads the line, on the other hand, he's a complete liability.

 

[portlander]

So who would be playing centre back at this point?

God some bed wetters on here. We're fighting hard with a patched up squad and illness.

 

[Working class pride]

That's a penalty and nearly two goals Dunk could have given away!

Which is why again we have question the people making footballing decisions at Brighton. They couldnt work out that Murray was a goal scorer and they let two youth defensive players from our youth team go. They now play in the Premier League and the Albion decided to keep Dunk instead. Decisions that have cost. Not a good record from is it?

Whilst everyone seems to be concentrating on lynching Dunk, we actually appear to be playing quite well. We will still win this game.

 

[brakespear]

0-1. AT least it sounds like the wingers are doing OK. Great.

 

[fleet]

Wilson to come on and run at a slow and tired defence later on - to save the day and give us a 2-1. Maybe

 

[Napier]

Whilst everyone seems to be wanting to lynch Dunk, we actually appear to be playing quite well. We will still win this game.

Wilson and Zamora for the last half hour should do the trick.

 

[warmleyseagull]

240 minutes since La Parra's goal at Derby...

 

[easynow]

hughton out! if were loose 2 games this season it's not acceptable!

 

[nwgull]

Yeah like we did V Palace and Derby?

That doesn't mean that we'll not win on a third of forth attempt. Anyway, what about 2004?

Get a grip.

 

[WhingForPresident]

So who would be playing centre back at this point?

The CB that would've been bought with the £6 million we would've banked for Dunk?

 

[Lower West Stander]

God some bed wetters on here. We're fighting hard with a patched up squad and illness.

This really isn't bed wetting. I'm at the game and we were right on top before they scored.

Yes - we are fighting hard so what we could really do without is a supposed first choice centre half making mistake after mistake and seriously jeopardising our promotion chances.

 

[Driver8]

Whilst everyone seems to be concentrating on lynching Dunk, we actually appear to be playing quite well. We will still win this game.

All the more frustrating that we are behind thanks to his mistake.

 

[Working class pride]

Get a grip.

True but Notts County still looms large as well as Derby and Palace.
