Pretty cagey from both teams, which is kinda understandable. I expect the second half will be far different to the first, and I'd very much like to see Welbeck on, if not at the start then at least after 10 mins or so,

We’ve played well. They almost look a bit tired Newcastle, not complete 100% full press and energy.

I’d love to find the winner.

Very poor. Seems like we don't want it. Changes needed as we also have 3 on yellow I believe.

Funny how differently one can see a half of football. Your opinion seems to be echoed on twitter but I thought we looked the better side and are playing some decent football

Dare I say cagey? Some wayward passing gifting the barcodes possession. Luckily, they look wasteful as well. Gomez for Baleba after an hour...doubt he'll do it at half time, should be interesting but could see this going the distance.

Probably lucky to go in level. Tricky substitutions for Fab to think about to avoid us getting a red.

Some of our build up play has been very good, but we've generally been too slow or hitting poor long balls.

All to play for.
Final ball has been absolute shite, other than for the equaliser

Build up play just lacks some pace. Lovely through ball by Pedro for the goal but may want to think of Welbz to hold it up a little better.

Why are Radio5 Live arguing that Baleba should have been sent off? Ridiculous!
One of his legs was extended and he kind of lost his balance. It's barely a yello in my opinion but given the speed he charged/dived in, it is. Don't know what those Radio 5 Saudi cheerleaders are banging on about.

Roy Keane spot on. 'Brighton have been the better team; Newcastle have looked more dangerous'.

We've not been bad apart from silly unnecessary mistake for pen but Minteh has atoned with his goal. Been slow with passing but been equal to them
That's pretty much the way I saw it, been a bit sloppy at times, but I really don't understand some of the weird comments on this thread!
