Brentford vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Birdie Boy]

Even last season, put away performances weren't great. The only really convincing away performances I can think of under Hughton are Ipswich away last season along with Sheffield Wednesday and Bristol City this season.

You can add at least Birmingham to that list.

When we start winning? they are massive players to loose..

Ffs can't you tell the difference between lose and loose?

 

[Springal]

You mean the point where our pretty much ever present defence started getting injuries and suspensions and has barely been the same since?

Suppose you could look to Villa for the defence improvements they have had since he joined there.

In that case our squad is not good enough defensively then if we cannot cope with losing 1 or 2 players.

Come on akpom.

 

[Dick Head]

So Baldock and Stephens not even fit enough for the bench!

When will we see them again?

When will we share precious moments?

Football is such a strange beast. How can largely the same group of players suddenly lose their way? It's what makes the game so intriguing and why we come back for more year after year but by God, sometimes it makes you want to scream.

Its called the broken window affect! Lincoln was our attic window!

Think we've missed Calderon more than Calderwood

Not sure I'd call a last minute winner convincing.

It's the NSC spelling (see the Banner) top of page..

We went on a brilliant run after Calderwood left as well: 2 draws and 6 wins until the 0-2 Preston game where half our defence was missing as well as Stephens. I think it has far more to do with missing 2-3 key players every game.

Poor ratings for all the Albion players. All of them.

The last 20 of. We were awful before that.

Is this the beginning or is this the end?

We are missing 4 players who would arguably be starting this game today in the back 4 alone. Find me another squad in this division who can cope with that. Not to mention our entire starting CM which is particularly important in a 4-4-2.

Ah didn't get the irony.

And if we can't keep all our key players fit for the rest of the season?

Nothing to do with that. Birmingham were the better team in the first half but second half we were always going to win or at least draw. They started playing deeper and deeper and it was all Brighton. The last bit of magic was bringing March on.
