Adams v McGhee

[London Irish]

Mickey now has a lot to prove for the rest of the game. His squad are ten times better than ours, can we even afford any of their bench players, so what's he going to do now to demonstrate he's the better manager than McGhee?

Let's see.

What are the odds that Adams will now try and poach Virgo from us after today's match?

I wish we could have Tiatto on loan for the season, he was class.

Amazing that they had Big Trev unused on the bench who we would kill to get.

Post match comments from BBC - who is the happier ?

Leicester boss Micky Adams:
"I'm disgusted. One or two of my players were average and the rest were very poor.

"That display was as poor a performance as I've ever been involved with as a manager. That was not a Micky Adams team out there, that's not the way I want to play.

"I don't want to take anything away from Brighton though because they worked as hard as any team I've ever seen. They're a good bunch of professionals and that's what I'm trying to get here."


Brighton boss Mark McGhee:
"We put ourselves about, especially in the first half, because Leicester are a physical side with some big lads and you have to compete with that.

"But we passed the ball too, moved it well and created opportunities. That was pleasing because it was something our fans didn't see a lot of last season when we had a different strategy.

"This year, though, we're determined to play more football and we're getting better at it too."
