[Albion] The poll I didn’t expect to be making

[West Upper Seagull]

A season thrown away?

Yep, and that’s on Hurzeler

 

[Zeberdi]

Oh for me definitely 1 point gained - we were never close to winning on our own steam because our entire team were suffering from myopia in the 18 yard box - and we were playing badly enough in the second half to lose anyway.

If we hadn’t been gifted two goals by the Foxes we wouldn’t have got on the score sheet today.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Good to see the players had a nice long rest, before this one.

Well deserved.

 

[Invicta]

Lucky to get a point in the end!

 

[Home and Away]

What was that shit show?

Exactly that - a sh*t show.

 

[NorthLainer]

There needs to be an option for "Both". Definitely two points dropped after that first half, but one point gained after the second.

 

[prawnsarnies]

I don't get why we have supposidly spent 10m on a CB and when an opportunity comes when he needs to step up, we play a midfielder there, not sure the message that's sending to the squad. The 2nd half the midfield was all over the place.

 

[Peteinblack]

Shamefully it was a point gained. The players looked like they were on their holidays already. Season pretty much over i feel.

I'll be glad when it is, although I'm no longer optimistic that we'll improve much next season.

 

[NorthstandRacoon]

We aee

Funny how the mood shifts around all season. Couple of months ago we'd all accepted this was a development season, young inexperienced manager, young inexperienced squad, but the development was promising.

Six wins in a row later we're going to win the FA Cup and qualify for the Champions League. And now we're back feeling doom and gloom again, before we settle back into the 'it's a development season' mode, which is probably still the right answer.

We are allowed to want to win things you licker.

 

[Iggle Piggle]

I thought we'd got over this annoying habit of playing a team off the park, failing to score - or not score enough - and then making a shit opposition look like prime Barcelona for 20 minutes of any given game.

Not ruthless enough, not good enough, too easy to play against and severely lacking in leadership. Lucky to get one in the end.

 

[Herr Tubthumper]

Taking the lead twice, and being let down by defence, is definitely throwing away 2 points.

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

We aee

We are allowed to want to win things you licker.

Oh you have absolutely hit the nail on the head. Yes, people WANT to win things. Desperately. And I, and everyone else here WANTS Brighton to win things, of course we do.

But that doesn't really change what we can recognise is the current state of our squad, or the current status of BHA relative to where we have been for decades.

We all want to win things. But failing to win things shouldn't colour our views of the actual state of affairs. But for some it does. If you bet on the favorite for a horse race and it loses you're pissed off. If you bet on a 40-1 shot, you still want to win, but you're more stoical about the eventual result.

You Licker.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

The longer the game went on, the more Leicester fancied themselves for the win. One point gained

 

[Seagull]

2 dropped. We should have been out of sight at half time but didn't take the chances. XG is 4! Credit to Leicester for their second half fight, however. It could have been worse in the end.

 

[Deadly Danson]

Spot on.

Fair do's, bigger licker. I'm just finding the manager incredibly frustrating, but do like the fact it's a long term project.

 

[Sorrel]

First half two points dropped. Second half one point gained.

 

[Stumpy Tim]

What worries me is that in the second half we went to a 4-1-4-1 with Ayari as the only defensive midfielder. The last time we did that we lost 7-0 and were repeatedly caught on the break. How did FH not learn that it's not the right system for us. I thought he had burnt that tactical approach?
