Well f me - I obviously went to a different match not the one reading all the negative comments here that make it sounds like we lost 4-0, yes it was frustrating to lose a game we dominated but we weren’t that bad. didn’t think our new players were that bad

Hmm i think you did go to a different game ….i recall it being a draw
I was also especially impressed by the whole Dunk foul/Forest offside/injury debacle in injury time taking up exactly 1 min and the ref then blowing for full time on exactly 6 mins of injury time. Idiot.

Can we work out how to beat teams like Ipswich before getting carried away. I can almost guarantee the top six sides would have all beaten Ipswich at home come end of the season.We'll finish 6th and get to a final - you heard it here, first.
Knackering as well. As the defenders have to chase every ball down even though they know deep down its o/s.
Teams like Ipswich....
That's a good point. Post match Welbz said that fans will criticize the back line...but it's our forwards that lost the ball.
Still, that being said, something is not right. Forwards will OFTEN lose the ball to a good defense, so we maybe need to keep another back in midfield to help break up opponent's transition.

strong and stable with me, or...
Just need a CB not to go charging into a midfield pressing position and leaving an acre of space behind him.
Maybe tactical, but in that moment just drop, the opposite of what Van Hecke decides to do. There wasn’t really any danger until VH left his position, that’s the key decision that leads to their equaliser.

Didn’t clap the fans today
Yep.
For any impartial observer that was a very exciting game end to end
From a Forest fans viewpoint I would imagine they must be quite happy with the point they defend well and broke really fast.
From my Brighton perspective it’s two points lost, we are very vulnerable at the back but incredibly exciting in midfield and in attack
This really is going to be a fun season we will win many games and loose many games although I am not sure Fabian has settled on his starting 11 yet
Veltman is a total master of the game he knows when and how to take the steam out of an opponents attack
Hinch what a header although he was totally unmarked and the cross was brilliant
why Fabian was sent off
And Welbeck’s free kick was sublime

Should not of taken Beleba off
I think it was the right decision as he was on a card and couldn’t be risked for the rest of the game/Saturday.
Yep, I wondered if that was because he was on a yellow, but we missed him.
Had to, because he was likely to receive a 2nd yellow.

So exciting in attack we created one real chance second half.
