Are Burnley hard to beat though? Their record this season is won zero, drawn 2 ( 1 against us), and lost 5. I think it means we are crap at scoring rather than Burnley being any good.

I agree that there is a confidence issue.
If Lamptey's shot had gone in in the first few minutes I think we would have scored 3 or 4.

Yes it really is that easy
It really isnt but I've dealt with plenty of football parents sharing your belief. "Play better!", "Shoot more!", "Score more goals!".
Its all easier said than done.

Hang on just a gawd damn minute....
Everyone is using OUR stats for the whole of 2020, what about Burnley? They are P25 W8 D8 L7 pts 34 for 2020 - can we try to keep things in perspective? They’re on a poor run but they’re not a poor side by any stretch.

Totally agree. 30 games to go and we only need to win 1 in 3 of these and pick up a few draws here and there.

Sadly you will get called a bed-wetter - some people just can't stop themselves using the phrase, justified or not. A bed-wetter would be someone screaming Potter out at every opportunity, predicting definite relegation and moaning that almost every player we've got is rubbish. On the other hand, just starting to have a few doubts is simply a realistic and rational position.

So, our run rate is 4 wins in 25, but 10 wins in 30 from here should be no problem? And we’ve already fluffed some easy home fixtures. Obviously nothing to worry about.

We still have one more point than the corresponding fixtures last year....

That sounds like progress, fair enough, all is good. Move on.

We're in the pipe, 5 by 5
We're a team lacking confidence that's obvious.
I'm interested to see if we manage to score early doors again how we'll then look. For Newcastle and Man U we looked awesome.
Confidence is everything*
*wasn't Potter meant to the master of this with his pantos and dressing up as a rock star and singing?

Master? Just out of interest what has he really achieved in football long term?

The "positives to take" are annoying - but the impression remains that we could really clean up if we just got that bit of luck/confidence.
I guess it depends how much we consider that teams make their own luck - because certainly aren't making it at the moment.

Forest 1-0 up at the moment. I know the last 6 months of Hughton's reign was quite painful to watch, but I just wonder if he had this Brighton squad would he be be getting a few better results although maybe less pleasing on the eye. Just throwing that out there.

Wanting to see Brighton win makes people plastics now? Wow. Your bar is basically a world record limbo bar, isn't it.
