Has There Ever Been A More Rubbish Disjointed Season?

Just seems like the season's never really got into any kind of a rhythm. Endless international breaks, stops for whist drives in Falmer village and open days at the Uni, floods in the North, no trains or buses for Boxing Day, telly games etc etc. Doubt any team in the Championship has suffered worse. It has to have a cumulative effect shirley? Please can we have our football back.

Saturday/Tuesday was really hacking me off.

No game for weeks then 2 in 72 hours

when every game is a 400 mile round trip 2 games in 72 hours is a pain.


when it happens again and again it takes on the proportions of a nightmare :(

Doubt we'd give a shit if the football was any good, but results at The Amex are dire.

30 miles along the coast is tough enough.

Agree entirely and said as much in a thread a couple of weeks ago. We're halfway through yet it doesn't feel like we've got started properly.

Living where I do doesn't help but the overall effect is I'm just a bit 'meh' about the Albion right now.

It will be a lot worse in the Premiership.

Well, I agree with half of your post.

The football has been good, but the results not good.

Brilliant stadium, record crowds, good (if a bit frustrating at times) football. Yeah, what a RUBBISH season.

Still, at least it's the same old faces moaning about nothing. Most Albion fans seems to appreciate things are actually pretty bloody good at the moment.

You're missing the point. Go to the first post and read through the thread again.

thankfully the quality of the football has been excellent - better than last season.


you of course would not have noticed

The quality of the the football has been excellent in about 4 matches, the rest have just been a frustrating concoction of endless dull sideways passing, baffling selections and missed chances.

International breaks, uni open days, televised matches, Boxing Day transport issues. Nothing the club has any control over. And hardly "suffering".

All perfect examples of how the rhythm of the season has been affected...ie the OP's point and the same point you appeared to have missed in your reply.

If we got promoted which we won`t not this season anyway,then Gus would have to go we would need a complete overhaul from top to bottom to survive in that division

Possibly. But my comment was relating to the disjointed nature of the season.

It's funny how I find very little to argue about, in that statement.

But my overall view of all things Albion couldn't be more opposed to WW. :shrug:

Events at Forest make me all the more happier to have Tony and Gus at the helm.
