"Warnock fumed, claiming the first came well into a second minute when a minimum of one had been signalled by the fourth official."
That's right it's a minimum of one minute added time, what's your problem?

Exactly. There was a stoppage for a corner and a free kick in that time so he would have added a bit of time on for that.80's Seagull said:

Damn, those grapes are sour!
Would he have been grumbling if HIS side had scored two minutes into injury time at the end of the first half? His comparison with Old Trafford is ridiculous. The normal whinge there is that the whistle only blows once Man Yoo have equalised or gone in front. Here it is because the blunts CONCEDED at a silly time.

Just posted this to the editor of Yorkshire Post...
Headline: How Would You Like Your Grapes, Mr Warnock?
Sir,
As a life-long Brighton & Hove Albion supporter, I have witnessed many games in which the Albion have either been 'mugged' as your reporter Robert Gledhill puts it in his report of Saturday's game at Bramall Lane, or have done the mugging.
West Ham Utd were 'mugged' by Brighton earlier this season when we won the game totally against the run of play. That, in essence, is what a 'mugging' is. Neil Warnock, however, is well aware that his team were second-best on Saturday. Unfortunately, he is unable to admit it publicly. He is also aware that the time flagged up by the referee's assistant at the end of each half is the 'minimum' time that should be added on. Richard Carpenter's opening goal, therefore, was perfectly legitimate.
If Warnock had a decent complaint - for example, Tottenham's recent goal that never was - then his anger would be understandable. But to blame the referee when it's his own side's defensive frailties that are to blame smacks of sour grapes. Grow up Warnock.
Yours faithfully,

I've noticed that the "no disrespect but we've got to be beating sides like Brighton" quote has disappeared lately. I thought that Warnock would be a prime candidate to use it but he chose to have a pop at the ref instead. Did Hoddle use it after the 1-1 draw at Wolves?

How long before we scored first half, were they attacking our goal? Ten seconds? I assume he'd have been OK about it had they got one then....

Can I just point out in Wanock's defence that his programme notes were really suppoprtive of BHA generally and Falmer in particular. O, and he said the record is very good as well.

In all fairness to Warnock he hasn't actually said Brighton were lucky or anything like that. And he did put it down to sloppy defending on his TV interviews; although we did slice them apart with our passing from what I saw.
Warnock has always spoken up in favour of Falmer too, and been quite complimentary about our supporters.

He was smiling in his post-match interview on the Championship. I wonder if he's ever done that after a defeat before He likes us I think.
He likes us I think.
Regarding the 'little Brighton' remarks, I notice that Butler - Leeds skipper - said something similar about us and Gillingham. These comments have a habit of rebounding.
Warnock, on the other hand, was saying what a dangerous team we could be last week. It was the Sheff U fans that were predicting 4-0 and 5-1.

Listened to the post match interview on BBC Sheffield and thought he was very fair and thoughtful, although he couldn't resist a little swipe at the injury time goal.
To be fair we also were shouting at the referee to blow for time when the free kick was being taken.
He made a nice comment about Butters, likening him to Taggart of Stoke, whe he said had played with a fag in his mouth. Fairly immobile and should be easy to expose with a bit of pace, but organises the players around him so well, that the lack of pace never matters.
I think it was a compliment of sorts.
