Oh dear....we're really not very good at the moment are we....1-0

We're playing worse than Friday night.

boo

 

[sir albion]

Result isn't that important as i recall us many of times having a shite pre-season and doing great in the league.

 

[Notters]

Would someone please tell me how to get free bloody commentary.

 

[fleet]

Pre-season, results don't matter, but - I'd still rather we were playing well and stuffing dozens past teams like Torquay

 

[Uncle Buck]

Is he the one from Palace? Obviously I haven't seen him, but he looks a bit lightweight. He'd fit in quite nicely on that basis I suppose.

That is the fella. Again none of them to date like look the box to box midfielder in the Hammond mould that we need. I guess the Forest lad has been brought in for that job.

I would not be surprised if we end up playing something along the lines of a 4-3-1-2 formation, with no natural wide players. We seem to be accruing a number of central midfielders

can I hear helen cheering

or as we all imagine "can I hear Helen coming ?"

 

[chez]

Useless bastard. I hear we've got some Scot on the bench who's quite good. Get him on for f*** sake Russell

:yahoo: How can I put this as my signature?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

agreed. but the performances are not there either and that is worrying.

But what if Russell's had them training 20 hours a day and they're absolutely knackered... I think it's a good sign personally.

 

[Finchley Seagull]

I'd support him to start with and if he's good I'll be fine with him, but if he's shit I'll be on his back quicker than you can imagine.

Fair enough except you will clearly rate Smith more harshly than you do Kuipers. I have never understood the obsession with Kuipers. He was a very good keeper at this level and still is a decent one but why people feel the need to be obsessed over him and blind themselves to the ability of all other Brighton keepers is beyond me.
