Tell Best it's an away game, send a taxi for him and drive him as far away from Brighton as possible. ( trouble is, I really think Hughton rates him).
Team- Walton, Bruno, Hughes, Halford, Calderon, Stephens, Kayal (if he's not fit, Holla) Texeira, Ince, O'Grady, Lua-Lua Subs-Stockdale, Dunk...
Stockdale - for an hour looked ok then had to save two shots-which once again he failed to do. -4.5
Bruno - nothing special - 5
Halford - at fault for second goal. What happened to his long throws? -5
Dunk - caught out too easily again. Has gone right off in recent weeks - 4
Bennett-brings...
Letting him and Cook go-two more of the magnificent management decisions in recent years that have weakened our squad to the point where we are struggling to avoid relegation. Good luck to them both-after tonight!
In the fourteenth minute of added time at the end of the first half (somehow we've got that far without conceding) Stockdale catches the ball then shouts to the ref that it has gone down. Mr Superman Pawson tells him to bring the ball to him. He immediately sends off Stockdale for deliberate...
It's hard to disagree with any of that report. It reads like so many others this season. Too many of the thirty something players used are average at best, while the likes of Greer, Calderon and Bruno have all had their day. Too many of our better players have been moved on and replaced by the...
Haven't you all forgotten Bennett? He offered to find a phone box , went the wrong way and was passed by three pedestrians and an old lady in a wheelchair before he could get back.
Initially yes but doubts beginning to creep in, especially since he seems to consider that the total waste of space that goes under the name of Leon Best is the answer to anyone's prayers! If, and it is still if, he keeps us up, the summer's transfer business will give us a good idea what the...
Quite agree. If he wasn't fit enough for even twenty minutes why was he on the bench? After all, the management searched the toilets at half time, found a bloke looking completely lost, put him in a shirt with "Best" on it and let him play.
Stockdale -6 made a couple of saves, otherwise not much to do.
Bruno -5 -adequate but never really threatened to produce anything special.
Greer-4-come in number 3, your time is up. No longer the defensive force he was.
Halford-7.5 -very sound, currently offers more mobility and options than...
I do feel that people are being a bit unkind about a lower league club just along the coast from us. After all, Southwick, Littlehampton and Bognor are also lower league south coast clubs and they don't get mocked in the same way.
It's inconvenient and yet another example of how Sky runs roughshod over football supporters. I'm sure it won't be long before they demand that games are interrupted for adverts!
