Lots of last seasons games were like that too.

Actual Pulis quote in his BBC interview and yes, he mentioned international duty:
West Brom manager Tony Pulis: "You have to give Brighton credit. I'm not pleased with the way we played during certain stages of the game.
"If you're not at all in stages of the game, you will get beaten. It's disappointing."
"We conceded three poor goals. We had a lot of possession to have created more too.
"Everybody has to deal with the international break but some of our players turned up on Thursday afternoon and they looked like it."
Be interesting to know how many they had playing internationally compared to us.

Delivery for Mr. Hughton.
Yes, mate. Buzzing like a teenager again. Kudos for all your Official Duties, it's a thankless task. So happy we can forget about the weak of bladder for a week or so. Getting behind your team shouldn't seem so tricky.
As for Hughton's cache of salt - by now he could basically create he's own Dead Sea on Brighton beach and walk on water.

Yes that was disappointing if a little understanding. Maybe the players were a bit tired but around me we genuinely thought we could win 4 or 5 nil we were that dominant. Obviously have taken 3-1 before the off though

I guess a lot of us were wrong.

So happy to be wrong. At least 3 positives this weekend!

The bloke sat to my left kept standing up with his arms stretched out, everytime one of our players made a mistake, bloody awful, I thought he was going to burst into song.....

I thought all the team did well, especially Solly, Duffy and Hemed, outstanding stuff.
I don't understand why we didn't bring on Jose with 10 mins to go. We were looking tired and under constant pressure. March defended well, but when we tried to break he didn't have the legs, Jose could have done both. Obviously all's well that ends well, but I don't get the decision.

Yes, and the weekend isn't over yet...
Ideally, a close 1-0 Burnley win might see agent FdB stay up the road a bit longer.

Because March was defending superbly at the time. No point in replacing him. He could have come in for Knockaert but we just didn't need to change it.

For those that haven't seen it heres MOTD from last night. http://www.footballorgin.net/2017/09/10/bbc-match-day/
..........or for Gross.
In hindsight, yes we held out, but would still have liked his speed as a counter-attacking threat for the last 10-15 minutes.

We needed to defend first. I doubt Jizzy knows Hughton's defence drills as well as the others.

So far, so good...
Nine of them knowing the drill and flooding the penalty area should be enough! Anyway, Jose would be helping the defence, insomuch as he'd be keeping two of their blokes back to keep an eye on him - that's two less attackers laying siege to our goal.

Keep on questioning CH's tactics but that's the way I read it and it was sensible.
