    Houghton out

    He's made one cash signing and he looks a real bargain. Simple fact is if we sack Hughton, we're going to struggle to bring someone else in. Who would want the job given that Hughton looks like he will still probably achieve his aim and is still forced out. Anyway, this is all irrelevant...

    Houghton out

    And he's got more points than Hyypia

    Houghton out

    Great idea. Who needs stability. It's much better to sack our manager now and then have another chaotic summer. We're still in with a very good chance of staying up (Millwall now can't afford to lose another game and must win at least two of their last three to catch us). We don't have any...

    A striker. Please Tony, for Gods sake, sign us a striker

    I don't think we're that far short of a decent Championship side, if we just got that striker. Our squad for much of last season wasn't great but we still came sixth. The biggest difference by far is Ulloa (and to a lesser extent Barnes in the first half of the season) against our current...

    ****MATCH RATIINGS vs NORWICH****

    Not sure I totally agree with that as he was very influential in our late first half spell when he seemed to move further forward and link up with Texeira. However, he faded in the second half and I could see why he was substituted.

    Your subs are too late

    It's hard to argue with that but it's not Hughton's fault. The bigger question, looking at the game, is why Redmond didn't start as he changed the game for them. They also brought on Hooper, a £6 million striker, and all we had were Best and CMS. Hardly comparable but definitely not Hughton's...

    Your subs are too late

    Or maybe give the guy a chance. He's turned us from relegation fodder to a mid table team (in terms of results since he's been here). He has limited attacking options, especially with Baldock and March injured, and so he's playing defensively to give us more chance of winning. It was only one...

    Stockdale

    Except the highlights show it is a foul. As I said earlier, in the 1950s when you could jump at the keeper all you want, it wouldn't have been a free kick. However, you very rarely see a goal given for that now. I doubt you'd find many recent examples. Rhodes didn't touch the ball and he...

    Stockdale

    Having watched it, it's clear that you'd already made your mind up. Rhodes clearly impedes Stockdale. It might have been a goal in the 1950s but will never be a goal these days. I've seen much softer free kicks given for fouls on the keeper. What confuses me is why a fan would be so keen to...

    Midfield 3 - Kayal, Ince & Stephens

    Yes, we have decent options in central midfield. Thought Ince, Stephens and Kayal did very well yesterday. Ince, along with Stockdale, was my Albion man of the match yesterday. Holla will be decent back up for us next season. He looked really good when he first came in and was another player...

    Stockdale

    I agree with that. I don't think it was an error yesterday as it was a clear foul but the Wolves game he made an error but also three brilliant saves and we probably would have lost without him. Sadly, some people on here focus on the mistake rather than the saves. I think he's going to be a...

    Your preferred centre half pairing

    Yes, Greer did sign a new deal when he was in great form earlier in the season. Think we could even keep him as club captain and then make someone like Kayal or Dunk vice captain so, in reality, they will be first team captain. Will be interesting to see if they think Rea is good enough to be a...

    Your preferred centre half pairing

    Dunk and Halford. It's a pity about Greer as he has been an excellent signing and been captain during one of our most successful spells but he's not had a great few months and I think Halford's looked great at centre back. Hope we sign Halford and keep Dunk in the summer and that could be a...

    Stockdale

    I find this argument bizarre. We are supposed to support the team and the players who play for it. That's why we go to matches (or at least most of us do some might just go to slag off the team) so to say that people who stand up for players and defend them are as bad as those who criticise...

    Stockdale

    I haven't seen a replay but it was right in front of the away end and it looked clear that Rhodes jumped at Stockdale and fouled him.

    Player ratings vs Millwall?

    Different perspectives are funny. I thought the defence did okay and was impressed by Halford, especially as he's hardly played recently. In fairness to Best, it was by far the most effective I've seen him play for us (although that's more a reflection on his previous poor performances than him...

    Stockdale

    I don't understand the stick Stockdale gets on here. Anyone who seriously thinks he cost us two points yesterday as opposed to saving us one is so biased their opinion should be ignored. He could have done better with the goal but he kept us in the game before that and made an incredible save at...

    Reading Vs Brighton and Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Sorry you've not seen his posts before. He moans all the time, on every thread. That is what I'm commenting on. I really wish I'd been able to go tonight as I wouldn't have to deal with the rubbish on here.

    Reading Vs Brighton and Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    I'm bored of this so will quit after this post but what a sad response. Because I support the team and question people who moan all the time (with literally every post on here) I am laying into fellow supporters. Sorry, maybe we should all just spend our timing moaning at every match instead of...

    Reading Vs Brighton and Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

    Err because I do support the team. You just spend your time moaning. One of the most miserable and negative posters on here (and we all know what your previous account was).
