*** Northampton Town v Brighton & Hove Albion Carling Cup 1st Round *** Official !!

[mcshane in the 79th]

no we dont, it gives the younger lads such as Batti and Caskey a chance to shine.

Bit much pressure to rely on them for promotion. Caskey is playing a lot for England too. Need to get someone else in

 

[clarkey]

Fancy a bit of 442 on Saturday now; Kish and Dicker in the middle.

 

[theonesmith]

what a terrible, terrible night.

Still - having only played 45 minutes, Holroyd will be fresh against Rochdale

Oh do one you berk, this is getting tedious now.

 

[fleet]

nice if we score from this corner

 

[Twinkle Toes]

I hope not sprain maybe.

I was thinking it sounded more like a cruciate that's been wrecked tbh. Hope to God it isn't, obviously.

 

[bhafc_ross]

still got greer and muuray back saturday look foward !

 

[kevtherev]

Navarro is key to the system, no one else can play his role. Maybe Kish would be the nearest, I know Batti is suppose to be a defencive midfielder but he is nowhere near ready, I would have thought at the moment.

 

[Northstander]

This has been a disaster. The result is quite frankly irrelevant now.

I could have told you that at the start!!

Its all about thinking of the bigger picture!

 

[mcshane in the 79th]

I really hope we don't score twice and take this to extra time!

 

[doug7126]

NO...............
























thanks

why not?

 

[Steve Foster]

Rochdale winning at Barnsley!!

 

[Southstandseagullsfan]

whats the link to the stream

 

[TrueFan]

Lee Hendrie was only a suggestion, he wasn't that bad?

 

[Lady Whistledown]

FFS guys, it's only the Carling Cup, we're nearly always shit in it. I'd far rather lose tonight and win on
Saturday- clearly Poyet thinks the same or he wouldn't have picked the likes of Hart, Whing and Poke.

What I'm annoyed about is Sparrow getting himself suspended, and sorry for Navarro.

The result, however? We'll have forgotten all about it by the end of August.

COrrect - may need to sign someone rapidly

This.
Sparrow and Navarro are the 2 KEY central midfielders we have, Sparrow creates and scores goals which noone else bar Bennett can do, and Navarros intelligence and passing is key.
Absolutely gutted!

Kish will do a decent enough job in Navarro's position, but then we need someone to replace what Kish does

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Excellent!

BBC Sussex commentary has FAILED.

 

[Stoo82]

Seagulls player gone?

 

[sam86]

Now my f***ing radios gone off.
