Gotta feel for Derby. And not just because it was QPR, but they were better by a mile. Unbelievably unlucky, and that O'neil bloke has got away with murder. Not as bad, but slightly like that Suarez handball vs Ghana 2010, with Ghana missing the resulting pen and then losing the game

have you not read the rules, the team that scores the most goals wins, not the team who passes the most how is that unfair

It's only sympathy, mate. Just thinking that if even I was disappointed when the final whistle went, then imagine how the derby fans must feel. I know the rules alright, but sad to see the club better over the season fall at the final hurdle

I doubt many felt for us or Watford last year despite being better than Palace over the season.

I've just read this on Twitter but it is true.

Brighton's record against the three promoted sides

Played 6 Won 4 Drawn 2 Lost 0.

We've got to learn not to choke in important matches.

QPR defended magnificently so they deserved it end of story - and the best bit of football of the game was Zamora's

It sure is an unfair game, three teams promoted and not one of them beat us this season.

Seems Derby's pitch invasion was a bit premature.

I'm with you OP. But more because of the fact QPR have spunked so much money and no doubt flaunted FFP.
