Well. I thought we played bloody well

[Horsham Gull]

I think you're referring to the one decent chance I mentioned. That was bloody good. I've got nothing against him, I don't think he played well today.

yeh sorry i need to read more throughly before opening my mouth

 

[Buzzer]

I take on board what you say, CB , but a few weeks ago when we conceded, we just fell apart. Confidence absolutely shot.

Not this time. 1-0 down and 20 minutes to go I reckoned we could have won 3-1 the way that we were attacking. And the players could have EASILY lost their heads with the bizarre refereeing today but they didn't which is to their credit.

It's all about opinions. Not saying mine is right. It's just mine. Nice to see a few people agree with me though that we aren't doomed just yet.

I thought Thomson was MOM

So did I. Thornton a close second.

I thought we were unlucky today. We certainly deserved a point, and had we scored from the penalty then perhaps we could have gone on to win. However it would be hard to say we played really well. I thought both sides huffed and pufed a lot, and neither probably deserved to win. We have played a lot worse than that though for sure.

I totally agree.

I would also add that the ref and the lino in front of the south stand were absolutely shocking. I'm with CB in that I hate blaming refs for results - it is about the team - but that ref completely f****d the game up today, and that really didn't do us any favours at all.

i was at the match and if you think we played well then you are off your rocker mate.

its all relative .... we have played 10 times worse and walked away with points ...

 

[NMH]

How many times did the Huddersfield keeper save them??

Was it.....once?
I counted one, when he saved from Forster's penalty.

 

[northstandnorth]

kuipers also got away with handling outside the box twice today. the second time he was about 15 yards out of it

 

[les dynam]

we were average at best.

 

[Gritt23]

Adams said we "created plenty of chances" but I can't actually think of much we actually created all game? Johnson's free kick was superb, but hardly what I'd call a chance we created, and nor was the penalty, so what DID we create today?

 

[Silent Bob]

We played quite well in the first half and collapsed when they scored. Great.

 

[les dynam]

we created one proper chance when murrey clipped the bar first half. that was all. they had about 5 great chances. first half we looked okay but second half was woeful. poor substition didn't help things.

 

[timbha]

worrying trend of being on top at HT, then collapsing

 

[northstandnorth]

not a lot for £25.50 and 6 litres of petrol.thank f*** i saved £3 on not getting a programe.

 

[Chesney Christ]

We created one chance in the first half, then were awful for the first 15 minutes of the second half. Then for the last half an hour Huddersfield invited us on to them and we still only created a couple of clear cut chances. Whoopee doo.

 

[dougdeep]

I thought Thomson was MOM

I'll agree with that, Anyinsah ran him a close second though, he was everywhere.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Reckon we played OK and were beaten by a very poor ref and a cruel rub of the green. Murray did a sublinme bit of skill in the first half, made it happen, and hit ther bar. We hit the bar also from that second half FEROCIOUS free-kick (Leeds guy Johnson?). Oh, and the penalty. Random result really

 

[Basil Fawlty]

I thought we were ok, our passing was good. But we lacked a final ball espically our crosses into the box, where far to deep in and around the penalty area. I thought Bradley Johnson had a complete shocker today, and should of been brought off instead of Joe. Can someone explain why we've signed Fleetwood, if we're going to use him as a winger? When this man can clearly score goals....

I thought we played well in the first half
The second half Huddersfield had our measure and we weren't able to do anything about it. They had obviously done their homework because they blocked Murray out of the game. We had three good shouts for a penalty and the ref was heavily biased against us.
I thought Anyinsah and Thomson were exceptionally good. Thornton had a day when he tried to play a bit too much pretty football. Unfortunately when the Albion go a goal down they do tend to resort to "hoof and hope". All in all I thought it was a fair performance today.

Huddersfield should be higher in the table, I haven't seen a team down at Withdean all season who were quick on the break, like Huddersfield today.
