Teams have worked how to defend against it, and now it’s up to GP to look at alternative ways to break them down. Poyets downfall was no plan B, let’s see what Potter can come up with. His substitutions have changed games recently, but IMHO the constant tinkering with the starting 11 is a problem

Did we actually see any return on our supposed £14m outlay, or has that been written off as bad luck?

40 will ensure safety as it generally does, I think 36 may be enough this season on goal difference. I think 36 will be a challenge though as we’re simply not picking up pints where we should. We’ll need a couple of unexpected wins to get over the line, hopefully they’ll materialise

We play better against better teams because they allow us to. Sheffield Utd at home was the changing point, they turned up and crowded out the midfield and defence, and then countered very quickly. We’re not quick enough at the back or in midfield to defend against pace, and with a crowded box...

And conceding from corners

What happened to the early season confidence and belief in the players, they certainly don’t seem to believe in each other. This is poor again, and so easy to play against. Bernardo going forward is getting nowhere, and then he meanders back onto position leaving Stephens to make the running and...

I like the starting 11, but dont agree with the bench. Murray for Cochrane, and Gross will be in the squad somewhere

At 5ft 4 he’ll be a perfect addition to our inability to defend corners

Well thank god January will be over by the time we next kick a ball then.... I think our failure to defend corners/set pieces this season has been part of our undoing. Last season we scored a few from corners and defended them well. Last season we used a different central defensive pairing...

What bothers me is that last season there were only 3 teams, possibly even 2 that were worse than us and we stayed up. This season there are a number of teams worse than us, but our inability to see games out, also defend set pieces(apparently Swansea conceded most goals from corners last...

Oh, that was bad tonight. Not going to single out a player, collectively(including management) that was predictable and poor. Possibly too much tinkering with the team and formation is the problem?

I remember being gutted as a 7or 8 year old that Blondie were American. Debbie Harry was my first crush(even at that age) and it was unlikely I’d ever see them in BRIGHTON(until my 30’s, by which time was probably into her 60s)

Is there any reason why the cup game on Saturday kicks off at 15.01?

Ticket exchange is very useful for us non STH’s, however my mild grumble is having to pay full price for my 11 year old if buying through exchange

Pie, mash, veg and onion gravy tonight. Been living on leftovers and snacks for the last 5 days, it was nice to get some fresh veg today

The whole thing has gone in a bit of a whirlwind of meh, coupled with Juniors birthday yesterday and the disappointment of yesterday’s result... Got a few more days off to take it easy, but 3 valuable points tomorrow will lift the spirits a little

It’s great watching us going forward, but defensively we can be shaky. I know that Liverpool are a different level at the moment, but when required their defenders will put a boot through a clearance, and ours don’t. I’m not saying we move to hoof all, our players just need to improving their...

I have to read the Albion related stories through the Twitter feed as the site continually crashes out on either Safari or Google(for iPad)

Either the Buckley winner against Doncaster, or the first PL goal against West Brom

It’s still a point away from home, but we need to be better at the weekend
