[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Nottingham Forest *** Official Match Thread ***

[Casper18]

This referee is Forest's 12th man, it has been a long time since I've seen such a blatantly biased official.

 

[Mike Small]

Take Baleba off. Believing his own hype. He's going to get sent off. Plays the wrong ball so many times as so one footed. Wonderful atheleticms but Weiffer is a better footballer. Do it before he gets sent off Fab.

And while your at it f***ing coach our attackers to chill out. Had a player over there at Simon just passes it to their right back.

 

[BevBHA]

Estupinan has been absolute dogshit

 

[Weststander]

Pervis isn’t defending!!!!!!!

 

[Frutos]

I think it might be wise to take Baleba off at half-time.

 

[kjgood]

So far we look very easy to play against, they are moving the ball quickly and we can't cope with it so far. Ref is a bit inconsistent.

 

[Frutos]

Worst performance by the official I think I have ever seen and it's only 25 minutes

Still doesn't beat Prosser the Tosser for me.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

This is going to be a very frustrating game isnt it?

Even if we come back to win it's going to be an angry win like when we beat a Dyche team. A joyless experience. Argghh!

 

[Normandy seagull]

Our decision making has been terrible- where’s the composure. Trying to force it now. They are going to score again at this rate

 

[Coach_Carter_92]

Adingra, Pervis and Baleba all been shocking so far

 

[WhingForPresident]

He'll find a reason to send Baleba off.

I can't see us getting through this lot today.

 

[GrizzlingGammon]

When I think Premier League refs can't get any worse, there's allways one ready to say, "hold my pint..."

 

[nsclurker]

And now the Ref books Baleba for nothing.

Professional foul, pulling a player back to stop the attack, and the ref pointed out other fouls he had made when he booked him.

Right in front of me.

 

[Bridcutt]

Game so far is going like 2nd half of last season De Zerbi. All ball but no final ball

 

[Swegulls]

Finally, that’s a good corner from Pervis!

 

[Birdie Boy]

We go from the absolute sublime football with no end product to absolutely awful. No defending playing balls into midfield when players are marked. Cut out the all sloppy defending and get the last part in and we will be fine. This could be 4-4 at the end!

 

[Mike Small]

I think that’s a bit harsh. I don’t know many people coping with moving to a new country, not speaking the language and adjusting at his age.

I think he’ll be excellent eventually but he just needs some time and experience, working on decision making etc. He just isn’t there yet.

Appreciate it sounds harsh but he is very rash and makes a lot of mistakes despite his brilliance which actually doesn't impact all that much on the game. Giving them a penalty/potentially getting a 2nd yellow does.

 

[GoingUp]

Baleba having an absolute mare!

I think he's actually doing OK, he's young and makes a few rash decisions.

He can work it out his game with good coaching.

Forest are playing better than us. Simple as that.

 

[Normandy seagull]

Is welbeck playing? Forest team much stronger than last year. They’ve spent well tbf
