[Football] Norwich City vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Day Thread ***

[GT49er]

But you have to wonder why JFC is dropping in to cover Bennett at left back when the team's just gone 1-0 up away from home. Would it be too much to ask for us to change tack for a few minutes at least and keep the full-backs in defensive positions?

Oh please tell me we're not still trying to play the full backs out of position...........

 

[Ernest]

Same old story , time we went onto win a game instead of throwing one away

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

Only outside the relegation zone on goal difference.

 

[Pantani]

BUT WHO WOULD COME HERE
most British managers would not last five minutes with our transfer policy

Nonsense, why do people always say this? We would have so many applicants. Just think about who is out of work.

 

[sjamesb3466]

Warren seems to think we are controlling the game! Not quite sure how he worked that out

Because the man is a bloody idiot? I know there are many on here who think he reads the game well but I think he is clueless.

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

Only outside the relegation zone on goal difference.

Give it time.

 

[Official Old Man]

So at what time will BHA slip gently into the bottom three. I reckon 16:23 with an Albion winner in the last 10 minutes moving us back to 21st, for now.

 

[oldboyroy]

i imagine norwich will be given a rollicking lets hope we can deal with them in 2nd half

 

[Mackenzie]

I wanna go hommmmmeeeeee.

I wanna go home.

Nonsense, why do people always say this? We would have so many applicants. Just think about who is out of work.

our best option would be someone like Pulis.......................ask Palace if that is nonsense TB would need very deep pockets to supply him with the players he wants, any other British managers would need time to settle in ................we don't have that time

They double- banked Bennett was behind him

JFC was where you'd expect the left back to be. Bennett was in no-mans land.

 

[jimhigham]

Our record in the first five minutes of the second half has me worried...

 

[BensGrandad]

Their goal came from bad defending on the left allowing the cross to be put in and nobody then attacking the ball no blame on Stockdale.

 

[trueblue]

That is how the system of wing backs dictate and the correct thing for JFC to do when Bennett is attacking.

Quite. But why would you have your fullbacks still attacking that much (and as they continually do, both at the same time) when you're a goal up but under the cosh.

 

[portlander]

That ref is a fat *******, isn't he

 

[Acker79]

No good header.

 

[brakespear]

bruno injured.

edit: looks OK though.

 

[gripper stebson]

Bruno out for a few more weeks?

 

[BensGrandad]

Only outside the relegation zone on goal difference.

That will do at 1430 on 2nd May 2015 no different to being 18th Good 2nd goal for Norwich nobody to blame but that is when you need your keeper to excel.

The goal came from Stockdale giving away possesion and we didn't recover.
