Brighton & Hove Albion v Nottingham Forest *** Official Match Thread ***

[sir albion]

I've given up on Vicente a bit, it'll be a pleasant surprise when he plays for us again but its difficult for me to miss what I've seen so little of.

Totally agree as i don't even count him as a injured player anymore,real shame as its serious money wasted

 

[sir albion]

Paynter's inclusion is unfathomable to me, I was really looking forward to him proving the Leeds fans wrong, but for me he hasn't done enough. Gus is a very clever man, he knows the game inside out, but I just can't see it. Can anyone help me out?

(Cue Paynter winner )

Probably because we pay paynters 8k a week wages and gus wants his money worth in which will never happen,paynter is not even good enough for our reserves.

Strange selection for a home game again,but we have been collecting the points so can't complain.

On reflection we do have 3 strikers on the pitch plus Nooney who tears assholes - so shouldn't feel too disappointed. And with an early sub in the form of Buckley or KLL to disrupt their formation I'm thinking Gus is doing some tactical mind-shit here.

The loan deal for Billy BarnDoor might have been for him to be in the matchday squad , similar to when Blobby Savage played in the stripes.

Anyone missing Glasfryn and Meggy?

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

I assume Paynter won't be on the wing, Noone and Barnes will do that, more of a 4-4-2 - or perhaps Paynter playing more of a Harley role behind the front 2, who knows. May need to wait for Buckley introduction for it liven up.

 

[Derbyshire Seagull]

Listening to Radio Nottingham commentary. They're very impressed by the Amex. Come on you Seagulls!!!!!

They had Wardy on earlier and he managed to say 'pissing' live on air.....well done.

Hoskins being unfit has put a spanner in the works and he does not want to risk Buckley from the start yet. Seems a fair enough line up to me as he wants to stick with 4-3-3. Can go 4-4-2 later on with Lua Lua and/or Buckley. 3 wins out of 4 will become 4 out of 5.

Said on the radio Forest have brought the most fans to Falmer this season. Really? More than Palace?

8k a week wages Unbelievable, I wouldn't give him 80p a week.

Anyone missing Glasfryn and Meggy?

Probably having issues with internet connection after his move to Eastbourne.

 

[portlander]

Anyone missing Glasfryn and Meggy?

Absolutely. Hope he's reached the sea air and blue rinses in Eastbourne

 

[Seagull kimchi]

Com on you Sherwood shafting Seagulls!

Yeah but what are we talking about 10 fans more?

 

[portlander]

I'm 3000 miles further away from this game than last week, but still excited. Come on you Seagulls!

Anyone missing Glasfryn and Meggy?

Glasfryn was moving house a couple of days ago , I guess TalkTalk haven't connected his broadband in Eastbourne

 

[seagullsovergrimsby]

come on you super seagulls

 

[portlander]

Our midfield looks a little light weight this week, although I hope I'm wrong

 

[brunswick]

not sure how vincelot loses place to tarrico

and paynter? better off with buckley on.

and vicente? where are you?

Anyone missing Glasfryn and Meggy?

Hoping that the old sod is at the match today, great that he has finally got home.
