So the changes from last season that matter - keeper - we have a new one. Left back - Calde played very well. Centre defence - new man was MoM. Beyond that only really Leo that would have been sure of a start ahead of the squad we had. So why were we so bad?
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊

Possibly, we will never know, but that is a feeling not an exact science
I'm just not judging the rest of the season on this one game.

Thanks Greens :(
So 27 000 nearly with 2500 (?) SW
= 24 500 BHA
If we get that for most games, and say 500 away, we will be down to 25 000 gates

That is just over a 7% fall in season ticket renewals as Barber said. Home fans in the region of 24,000. About as expected. Could have been a few hundred more if the online season ticket system had been working earlier.
Lots of empty sets an the less good seats, corners and front. I would have liked to get a better seat but only isolated ones available.
Much larger crowds at Forest & at Derby.

The Ulloa money is accounted for FFP, it won't be millions we spend and yes I think they were hoping or believed COG was the replacement for Ulloa
I understand that!
However, most clubs, most seasons, lose fewer matches at home - and by smaller average goal difference - than away.
So, in general, losing at home by the same score as teams in the same league position, is worse, is it not?
Not to mention, Football League rules say, in determining final table (basically):
League position decided by points gained
OR if equal points gained, then on goal difference
OR if equal on points gained AND goal difference, then on goals for
OR if equal on points gained AND goal difference AND goals for, then ...
REPEAT the above but just for of the respective League records against each other
OR if even that fails
FINALLY - “If the above procedures do not separate the Clubs, then the Clubs concerned shall play off a deciding League Match or Matches under arrangements approved by the Board on a neutral ground.” [this bit is direct quote from FL rules]
Phew!
This says it all, but in many more words:

Wednesday react to their win by signing a new forward whilst BERK sits on his backside doing NOTHING

That is for a final league table , the league table after the first game of the season is done alphabetical when the goal difference is the same after goals scored is taken into consideration. Anyhow the table doesn't take shape until 2 or 3 games have been played.

It is August, lots of families on holiday. Two of our group were missing because of this.
You don't seem to read what I've written!
No matter ...
However, Ipswich vs Fulham result has tweaked the table:
Brighton and Rotherham remain locked in an embrace at equal 18th, however defined.
Fulham is in genuine 17th. Same points and goal difference as Brighton and Rotherham, but distinguished by have a better goals for, at +1 compared with zero, from the Ipswich 2-1 Fulham result. Nothing to do with spelling.
It is a worry that we were so much worse today with a squad that is really not that much worse
Great day out, took all three points.
In the three visits to Brighton in successive years, its changed from you having a decent passing side, to a poor side, devoid of ideas and talent. The fans are dwindling and virtually silent now. If I was a Brighton fan I would be worried. We have a tiny squad to choose from and nearly every player was a free transfer. I don't know what is going on at Brighton, but after the rise in recent times this looks like the start of the fall to me. MASSIVE
