Wilkins was back in the dugout?
Interesting - i wonder if that's because he's decided he was wrong to sit up in the stands, or if he's responded to the abuse he was getting from it...

didnt think was that bad

we obviously went with the intention of spoling the match and got what we wanted maybe with a bit more luck might have nicked all 3

all in all i thought it was a decent days work but then you will never please some people

"Forster 4 - sorry, but he didn't really contibute anything"

"Forster 5 no ball, spent most of his time on the pitch looking miserable"

I hope this is not the shape of things to come, we really thought this man was going to set us alight this season, but there have more comments like this than I would like to hear.

Maybe we need to get a decent song for him, get his enthusiasm up, something aggressive, upbeat, thoughts?

On the radio they said that Barca player had played around 5 minutes football in the 1st team.

Well I couldn't go yesterday, or even listen on the radio. I haven't seen any match reports either, or spoken to anyone who was there, and I think it was RUBBISH.


Everybody OUT, etc, etc...

We were playing a half strength Swansea team who have been playing badly at home, and yes if the purpose was to play the match in our half and hold out for a point then it was a job well done, but it didn't show much ambition. It looks like the management have decided that mid table is this years objective which is probably why people arn't bothering to turn up. We've got some good attackers so why not try and use them.

I was sat in the Swansea end and the comments went in the line of...'we're playing cr@p but Brighton are even worse'.

I love my football and my team but I'm a little worried by the lack of ambition and confidence by the lads just now. Here's to better days ahead.

The stadium is one of the most BORING I have ever seen. Concrete, concrete, and more concrete. All one level the whole way round. Half full. Very dull from the outside. 5/10.

Whereas is Withdean is a lot less boring - different levels at each end and both sides and the outside is exhilarating in that it includes a Nature Reserve, a Sports Club and a newly redecorated pub. And our Club Shop caravan compares favourably with their Superstore?

I would settle for the leg room and unobstructed views of the Liberty Stadium at Falmer - I would put up with the outer appearance if the area under the stand could be a bit more welcoming.

From what I heard on the SCR commentary we were absolutely brilliant. Nearly nicked it with Bas hitting the bar, and I really enjoyed everything I heard.














































But then I didn't log on to the chat room or switch the radio on until 3pm because I forgot it was an early kick off !

I thought Swansea were poor. There number 10 deserved a good kicking with his poncy white boots, long hair and aliceband!

I actually thought we did ok, and should have been a couple up at halftime. Yes we wasted loads of time on goal kicks and throw ins, which is frustrating, but thats why there were 4 minutes of injury time.

We were away and created many long range chances, and must have had 6 corners in the 1st half. We limited them to few chances and Bas was so unlucky at the end.
Looked at full time he curled up on the floor and was almost crying he was so upset and passionate for the cause

I thought we did OK, and am pleased with a point and clean sheet

Negative points were Matt Richards who strolled around not challenging or trying, and looked like he just didnt want to get injured. And Doug Loft, not really sure why he came on, didnt do much

Yes we were very poor but I didn't think you were much better really. You had the better of the play in the first half and tried to get at us, our keeper made some excellent saves to keep us level at the break.

In the second half you got more men behind the ball and as always in this situation at home, we struggled to break you down and score. Despite all of our possession in the second half however, your keeper only had about 1 save to make. You good have nicked it at the death as you hit the bar but I thought a point was a fair result all round.

About about Orlandi, he's signed permenantly for us from Alaves, and spent some time on loan with Barcelona's B team.
