[Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Wolverhampton Wanderers *** Official Match Thread ***

[Kosh]

Great summary

Agreed; a brilliant summary.

 

[zefarelly]

Scrapped well for a point and tried to win the game. Can't really ask for much more in our position

No you can't. But we should never have been in that position.

 

[giveusfalmerplease]

So, one point behind the tracker and not half way yet. the season isn't a write off despite what some NSCers think

Well the trackers CLEARLY needs updating. You seriously think we will take points off Southampton and WestHam?. Both playing above last years form

 

[Pevenseagull]

Nice to see the real Davy Propper again, him with Bissouma both playing near their best is quite a prospect.

Not even clutching at straws here

 

[Bodian]

That’s got to be a lift for the players coming back from that.

Could change our outlook, much as the Man U disaster seemingly did the other way round.

 

[Jolly Red Giant]

1-3 at half time has to be a point gained.

Yea - but 3-3 at 70 mins and dominating the game - couldn't pull out a winner in the remaining 25 mins

Now - the point is important - creates a gap of 3 with Fulham and reduces the gap with Newcastle to 5 - but Brighton have played more games than everyone else of the bottom 7 with the exception of Sheff Utd. Hopefully they can now pull out a result against a Man City side that is misfiring a bit this season.

 

[Icy Gull]

As I said before - apart from an Irish forum - this is the only soccer forum I post on. I have no reason to go near a Forest forum.

Why not? You are very obviously (and why not?) a big Hughton fan, it’s tailor made for you!

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

As poor as the first half was the second was good.

We looked like a proper team for the first time in a while. In marked contrast to the first half we played with pace, urgency and determination and actually looked like we wanted to get a result. Hopefully that second half performance can act as a spring board for the rest of the season. Play like that. Have a ****ing go!

 

[amexer]

have now seen White play at left wingback

 

[kemptown kid]

Great battling point. Well done boys. UTA!

 

[PoG]

Three times?

No improvement for me

Much like the rest of the team then? Oh and two assists tonight.

 

[vagabond]

That Trossard goal should have stood. Disgrace from Chris Kavanagh again.

Shocking defending in the first half, but the lads showed amazing spirit in the second. What a great second half performance and superb spirit. If only we got the winner we deserved.

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

Yep, as a centre back. He definitely is NOT a midfielder. Really poor today, terrible positioning and and so weak in the tackle.

All about opinions but I disagree. He’s not a blood and thunder centre back, he goes about his work quietly and efficiently.

 

[Deadly Danson]

Well the trackers CLEARLY needs updating. You seriously think we will take points off Southampton and WestHam?. Both playing above last years form

Didn't we just take a point off West Ham?

 

[London Irish]

Scrapped well for a point and tried to win the game. Can't really ask for much more in our position

And this is Potter’s achievement - he’s divided the fan base into fans who expect nothing and fans who expect very little

 

[neilbard]

Dunk MOM, well done the players, Potter please **** off, you clueless wanker..

 

[hoof hearted]

Yep, as a centre back. He definitely is NOT a midfielder. Really poor today, terrible positioning and and so weak in the tackle.

I don't get why White should even be an option in that position. If Potter wants that type of player there he should be playing Molumby. It seems obvious, but surely playing players in their best positions would get more out of them and improve the team overall?

 

[hart's shirt]

The proverbial game of 2 halves.

Wolves outclassed us in the first 45, but Albion's heart and effort won a deserved point after the break.

It's been a while since we've seen that kind of commitment.

And we'd like to see a lot more of it.

 

[The Fits]

have now seen White play at left wingback

He's Rolls Royce at the back. Yes he struggles at set pieces, but he needs coaching. He brings and incredible amount of composure and elegance to the back line. Stop fannying around with the kid.

 

[southstandandy]

8 wins from our last 21 games and we should be safe - maybe only 7. We can still do this if we show the fight of the second half today. Come on lads!
