Only A goal? Blimey, I would like more than the one.

[Albion] I really don’t understand all of the negativity.

West Ham have bounced back a couple of times, as have Newcastle, and West Brom played yo yo for several seasons.
The ones that don't mount a promotion challenge are the ones with financial problems or dodgy owners.
There were too many problems, for me, last night.
Negatives:
We continually gave the ball away
When we had the ball we failed to create options or space
We failed to press Spurs when they were on the ball
We had a couple of chances but still never looked dangerous, we struggled to get the ball into any dangerous areas
We lacked innovation and creativity
Positives:
Kayal was back
Ryan played well
Duffy / Dunk looked good
Bong looked reasonable
March looked good, in spells, when he came on
We could have been on the end of a hat full of goals had Spurs pushed more

Bear in mind the Hyypia reign, it took no time at all for people to turn and make the Amex a very nasty place to work. Our fans since about 2010 are used to us winning more games than losing.
Under Gus we won more than we lost, under Oscar it was the same. Then we started losing games and the crowd turned super fast. The end of that season, there were those around me at the ground who thought Hughton was a complete liability too. Then we've won probably 2 out of 3 games for 2 straight years and people have adjusted to that way of being.
For a lot of us, we're kinda used to us going through bad patches so it's easier to deal with but a lot of fans NEED to be supporting winning team (not just Brighton fans) and in an age when managers get sacked after losing 3 games on the spin, it's not hugely surprising sadly.
