LocaRdia seems to be the new WoodS or ViNcente. Why is it so difficult?

That was a much better performance than I was expecting
Roll on Saturday, I’ll have a dry bed tonight.
Still 0 points to show for it though. That's all the matters now.
Our performances have been so bloody erratic this season - within games let alone one game to the next - that tonight's performance will seemingly have no bearing on Saturday's performance. So frustrating.
No just a realistic approach. Sleepwalking to relegation. Hughton doesn't know how to fight it. Nothing changes. No matter how many times we are "in" a game away from home we do not get any better.
We are relying on an old boy to get us out of trouble, but too often he disappears for a number of games. He's always been the same. Problem is we offer **** all else upfront with any consistency. Been saying for a season and half.

Yep.
The saving grace could be that the wheels seem to have come off for the boyo's. That game and Saturday have taken on EPIC proportions. Our season will be defined next month.

Great news that Davey Propper has finally scored. Decent hit too.
Knocky seems back to his best.
Bissouma probably has to start now Gross is injured.
We have played really away from home, against a decent team with a new manager.
There are positives.

strong and stable with me, or...
Didn’t watch but sounded like we did well. I’ll take your word for it rather than BS bedwettersBrilliant Cardiff lost at home - their results almost as big as ours at mo.
The commentators on my feed were really impressed with Brighton. We've obviously conceded 2. The first Knocky gave the ball away halfway, we were out of position, 1 pass and they were in. It was self inflicted. We took the game to them and Murray had to equalise start of the 2nd half, glorious chance created by a back heal from Gross (which actually injured himself in the process). We started to play more expansive football in search of the equaliser (you know the type of attacking football the ones moaning have been screaming for), and we concede on the break. A side in the mire would have collapsed then, we didn't, rallied, got a goal and had further chances to equalise. Yep, we conceded 2 and lost, but it wasn't a poor performance by any means.
I was crapping about today's game. In the ends, despite the results, I thought we were quite decent. Not worried. We will get points. My bed is dry.

Well, that was rather inevitable.
Lest we forget we were abysmal in the first quarter of the game. We knew they’d fly at us, yet opted for a ponderous selection with only the pace of knocky to counter any pressure. Selection and overall tactics wanting again. Bissouma had to start tonight, had to. Bong is (I say again) not a good PL player. Stephens has utterly lost his pace... confidence too. These observations represent managerial failings. Chris needs to make some tough calls and work to save all he has built. It’s falling apart right now, we’re in deep shit.
Saturday is going to be a very tough match. I’m not confident at all.
We’re all at sea, floundering...
Sails asunder,
Captains log,
Distant thunder...
We’re taking in water,
We’re going under...
Rum soaked, captain.
Sails in shreds...
The crew’s a drownin’
Ship wrecked, thrifty,
Salty knave,
Washed ashore,
Sun baked, desolate,
Sandy grave.

We did not play like a team that have given up or one that is sure to go down. Nothing is certain but I was encouraged by the performance, even the commentary team said we were a bit unfortunate. When you are down luck is hard to come by.

May be defined on Saturday, Hudders with three points and us just struggling for oxygen.

Yes our terrible run is down to bad finishing 
some people on here are looking at Hughton’s past achievements with us rather than the current reality. If he stays we’ll be down next season as it’s unlikely the league will be as poor as this year

Cannot wait till the summer and get rid of him - shocking signing in every aspect

I’m not in player recruitment idiot, although I’m quite sure we can afford a decent striker.
agreed. Also I doubt CH would have been too pleased with Locadia's free kick, Bong's follow up shot, Duffy's distance shot in the 1st half. Bissouma looked good when he came on but faded when Stephen's went off.
Bottom line - Murray cost us

I thought that we played quite well and on another day Murray could and perhaps should have had a hat trick.
A Fulham win at St Mary's tomorrow will put us in a better position.

Thanks very much. Post #504 has highlighted Muzza as the post match fall guy in a binfest for all our woes if we don’t win now.
Yeah....Muzza out. FFS

The teams at the top of the Championship this season play in a way that'd suit relative success in our league.
