The only ones who seem interested to me was Forster when he came on, and Kuipers who if he hadn't had been in goal today, it would have been doube-figures

Nothing special, looked to play well with Johnson.

I'm still trying to think how we lost to Fulham?:shrug:

He needs to start scoring a few though, to be honest.

Fulham are a decent side at home, and you probably wouldn't have lost if you didn't have that outrage with the gloves on, standing between the posts.

New no.1 in January without a doubt.

Got back from the game at about 10 tonight after a f***ing long journey there and back, and i feel sorry for all those who had to travel up from brighton and back again, as we cut a little bit off the journey!

Just a few points, and a little disclaimer before i start, I am not normally a negative fan, and i hate fans that moan all the time, but today i was so mightly pissed off at our performance.

1) adam el-abd is not a centre back. And to be honest he was absolute cack today, and played a part in all of their goals. I dont know how 'shit' hawkins has been playing recently, as everyone has been saying, because I havent to been see us since play for a couple of months, but f*** me it would be amazing if he has been worse than el-abd was today.

2) Fleetwood was so lazy it was un-believable. A lot on here have been going on about how murray is lazy etc, well fleetwood was rubbish today, he didnt jump for any ball, missed a sitter from 6 yards put, and looked like he couldnt be bothered.

3) Where the f*** was our midfield?? non-existant and they owned us in the middle of the park.

4) That Johnsen from leeds, its the first time i've seen him today, and he can go straight back as far as i'm concerned. He was at fault for their 3rd goal as he lost possesion and then just gave up and didn't track back and try to get the ball back (which was one of the things that annoyed me the most today). Far to fancy and tried to run the ball in himself rather than use team-mates.

5) The fact than when-ever we had possesion today there was absolutly no support for the man who had the ball, it was as if the players where saying f*** it you've got the ball it's your problem.

6) And finally, the thing that annoyed me and most of our fans, including my dad who spent £200 on petrol, tickets and food etc today for me and my brothers, was that most of our players looked completly un-interested, and couldnt really give a f***. We made a team who haden't won in 2 months look like world-beaters. The only players who deserve any credit today are kuipers, elphick and murray.

As i said earlier I wouldnt normally feast out with such a negative reaction like this as i try to be positive, but today was such a shower of shite, as shown by micky's apology to the fans on the website, that i'm not really left with anything positive to say, and that the players efforts levels were an absolute piss-take to those that had made the long journey to support the team.

And finally, my dad has been a fan of the albion for the best part of 40 years, and he really is the only reason i started supporting the albion, as I have never liveed in brighton or anywhere near, and today was the only time i've seen him lost for words, and actually wondering why he's gone to the game. And when things like that are hapening to loyal supporters like him (and to an extent me as well) I worry for this club, because on the way home we both said that it's put us off going to se the albion for the rest of this season, especially as we are no-were near enough to go to home games.

And to be honest I hope that players or higher-up of the club read this because I love the albion, but today i was left wondering why i'd bothered going all the way to carlisle to watch A pile of shit

Wathced this one on the box. Zamora looked good I thought and with a more in form Johnson would have yielded a few more goals. He's definitely more of a provider. A couple of great lay offs.

Best entertainment though was watching Roy Hodgson having a ding-dong with hard-man Jordan at the end. Fair play to him.

I didn't go yesterday, and after listening to the match on SCR and reading some of the stuff on here, I'm glad I didn't go!

I hope MA gave them all a ROCKET in the dressing room after the game. We've been under par for pretty much the whole of this season. At least MA sounded like he gave half a shit in his post-match interview.

Sort it out lads! We've got the quality within the squad, but it's not working is it?! Something needs to be done, we are slipping back down the league.

Anyone who has followed the Albion for any length of time knows that we are generally shit at Carlisle and I fully expect us to be shit at Hartlepool (who I see also got a tonking yesterday).

The only suprise is that anyone actually thought we were going to win given their winless streak. Having a shit time? Bring on the Albion and three points are yours. You're a striker who hasn't scored in months, count the days until you play the Albion.

That about sums up my view and why I did not consider making the trip.

I'm really really really really annoyed that I forked out £100 to witness yesterdays capitulation. MA in his post match interview said that the Albion were holding there own and sometimes even better than the home side for 28 minutes which should be translated as both teams were equally utter shit for that period of time. What MA didn't say was that for the remainder of the game we had less ability than headless chickens in the farmyard. If this match was played last week you would have thought it was a FA cup encounter and we were the minnows from the Sussex County league. Some players should be ashamed of their performance yesterday , they were just taking the piss wearing the stripes. Only Chef, Elf , Muzza and Foz showed any conviction with the rest only on the pitch for the appearance money. You know when things are bad with the crowd turning against the players because they are playing abysmal and then reality sets in as witnessed yesterday in the 2nd half - there was nearly carnage in the stand as it was suggested that one guy should f*** off and watch Palace instead of voicing his opinion. Now that was an insult too far.

The comment to f*** off back to the station as it was dying down, was a bit of an odd threat / insult.
