Really good point today. When Paynter came on, it really gave us a spark. He looked lively and I think the biggest factor is that he was there. A big body, up front, in the thick of the action, and thus gave us far more options. Skill wise he won't set the world alight, but he was definitely...

I know we have to move on and everything, but I too miss the sullen bastard. So far, this is the only move of the year that I now question Gus on.

Fantastic news for the Green Army! Now celebrate, rejoice and get your arses up to the Championship with us where you belong!

I think NSC are doing the classic thing of changing their tunes on a kneejerk reaction. We will miss Dicker, but we have to face that he hasn't had a brilliant season. Flashes of brilliance yes, and he does understand the way we play football, but he has evidently found the step up difficult. He...

Wish Neocon by The Offspring was turned into a chant.

Brilliant point. It's great knowing that pretty much every games is against an established big club, which makes victory all the sweeter. Making an effort to go to as many away games this year as possible.

I know, which is why I said pre-match, which was amazing atmosphere. It was after 20 minutes or so when it subsided. And Palace fans, unless you can warp time and place "FFS Murray" before the match began, then that won't help either.

A month on, the scars are beginning to heal. Was wondering if anyone had any videos of the electric pre-match atmosphere against Palace (i.e. 'Hey Jude/La La La Brighton' etc)?

Would be VERY excited to see that formation/team on Saturday.

I'd rather the passing brand of football Gus has established at the club. Results speak for themselves; when we haven't played our passing football we've lost (Leicester, Palace, not sure how we played against Ipswich but I imagine it wasn't brilliant). Personally I think last night was the...

Yes, and I tend to do the same, but most of those who left early are most likely STH, who go to pretty much every game, have to get home and go to work the next morning. Leaving early could mean the difference of getting home over an hour earlier than if you stay right til the end. If I came...

Well maybe you shouldn't try and disassociate yourself from Brighton fans using terms like 'you' and 'your' and 'your place'. If you know all of that, then I don't really see how you can be so damning of those who may not want to wait an hour to catch the train. I, too, am at University, in the...

Another reason why we're finding it hard to unlock CMS is that we only play on one wing at the moment, meaning Barnes has to cover a quarter of the field and play two positions. Really wanted to see Vicente and Buckley start yesterday as it would have given us the killer edge IMO.

So, you're a Hammers fan, right? And you haven't been to a game at the Amex, right? No, didn't think so. So you don't know exactly how close the train station is to the stadium, the lack of trains on an evening game or how long the wait is? On night games I get up and stand by the exits, so at...

Complete opposite for me watching on Sky. Only heard West Ham at the beginning and right after their goal. Could hear Leeds very loudly throughout the first half.

From that display, we are back. Haven't seen us play like that since the second half against Liverpool. Very positive.

The comments about Barnes are quite fair. I'm usually a critic of his, but he's asked to basically cover two positions. We really need someone on the right wing i.e. Buckley. Not only will it help Barnes, but it'll help Macca to not be so isolated up front.

Come home Zamo.

Agree with everything apart from the Bridcutt comment. Ankergren would have been vilified for letting that goal in. Tonight's was worse than the Millwall one. Hard to judge Harper on one game where West Ham were pretty shocking, and it was his first day and all. Reyes looked really good. Can't...

Passing works. When we don't pass, we lose abysmally a la Palace and Leicester. When we pass, we have more than half a chance a la tonight.
