Lol Finchley I just hope you don't slag me off for supporting the Brighton manager's very nuanced view on Stockdale and CMS - I think I am achieving the impossible feat of out loyalisting you :)

J There are reasons why Hughton tends to start CMS rather than O'Grady (or Baldock as central striker before his crock) - and you've basically covered it. I thought CMS did well in unsettling the Wolves defenders at times but he has to be better in taking some of his chances to get a new...

H Seriously? So even our manager is not a good enough source to judge whether Stockdale makes a mistake or not? I really am baffled now what possible evidence would convince the more extreme Stockdale supporters on here. The reality is Hughton had a clear choice to say what he did...

So your argument is that the football correspondent of the Guardian is wrong. So is the Reading correspondent. The Argus. And the BBC radio guy - and you know better than them all. Ok I'm really fascinated how far the mistake-deniers are willing to push their view - was Hughton also wrong to...

Do you think Chris Hughton slated him for saying he should be disappointed with his keeping for the goal ? Let's be honest - it's rare for a manager to make any public criticism of their players. Hughton would have not have done this lightly.

I see football league show said he was embarrassed. Guess the BBC are part of the global anti Stockdale conspiracy ��

I I posted three non SCR match reports on here the other day on this incident from the Guardian the Argus and the Reading local rag and they all blamed Stockdale for the goal.

So your argument is Chris Hughton is an idiot for saying it was a mistake?

Sorry you'll have to clarify what's not true. That he didn't make a match changing mistake for the first Reading goal on Tuesday or that he didn't make a match turning mistake today. I can get fans arguing that he deserves more time in the team to prove he can eradicate these frequent basic...

I think the reason though why Hughton keeps favouring CMS over O'Grady is that he moves defenders around far better and adds much more zip to our play up front. CMS alas never has been a clinical striker but he gets into goal scoring positions far better. Obviously I agree Ulloa's goal threat...

Yeh - poor old Chris had to say the same thing after the Reading game a few days ago as well

I don't know if Chris Hughton counts as a wanker, but he was definitely was at the game today and in his radio interview afterwards made clear it was an error by Stockdale.

It might be right or wrong but strikers are allowed to miss chances, at least he was in a position to miss them is the usual excuse and he was unfortunate with the disallowed goal and did stretch the Wolves defence well at times. Keepers are unlikely to survive making a lot of bad errors over...
