We could have easily scored 5. Worryingly Hemed's confidence appears to be going backwards not forwards, 10mm inside the post and he's scoring a lovely goal, but I'm a bit worried for him as the header chance was a gift and he fluffed it.

Penalty all day long. Dunk looks to a player trying too hard to perform better than he actually is. He needs to take a step back & start doing the very simple things well, he's trying too hard to impress.

I though I saw Dunky touch (just) the ball (looked like it diverted) before clattering into the Dong's player?

Bristol City battered us for long sections of the game best side here this season kodjia will get 20 goals by end of season and freeman is one of the best midfielder in the league. They will end up midtable maybe higher

You must be joking Bristol city battered us ? We had about 60% possession , we had lots of chances and deserved to win , if I remember we could of had 4 goals before half time . They were at OK at best , the only team who who have put us under lots of pressure was Preston in the last 20 mins of the second half , when we had a second string midfield playing .
You really are over rating Bristol City and their players

Worth noting that had a pen been given they could have missed it. And if they'd scored it we still probably would have won Karl - goals change games...

Probably the worst decision I've seen all season and definitely a penalty. How the assistant hasn't given that is a real worry.

It was a bizarre match because as people have said Brighton should have been out of sight at HT - but they weren't, and having hung in there somehow Robinson had every right to feel aggrieved.

We have had quite a bit of luck this season and it is time to take the luck out of the equation. We can play better than we have been (eg earlier in season), and certainly we need to finish better.

I said to my mate the time, no penalty. Having seen the highlights I still say the same, Dunk got to the ball firsts and the mk player went down as the ball ricocheted off of him and into touch, should've been a goal kick. Anyway even if it had have been the wrong decision there were more than enough decisions go mk's way...manu through on goal, Zamora through on goal and one that no one seems to have mentioned ,Maynard pulling Dunk back as the ball came into him for their goal. The ref had a stinker but at least he was equally shit for both sides.

If that was a Brighton player that went down I'd have been disappointed at us not getting a penalty..as regards to Robinson indicating a draw would have been fair? Yes pigs fly ...

Slightly OF but we really should have taken the 5m for Dunk and spent it on a striker who can score us 25 goals a season.
There was no striker available for £5m that would score us 25 goals.

I like his forthright manner. I couldn't help thinking of Albion in the Championship under McGhee, not in his rant but how every game is a battle against teams with much better players. Good luck to him, I thought his team tried to play football and kept the ball quite well at times. Good manager in my book.

Indeed. Manu and Zamora were through on goal and poor decisions given against them.

How do you know? Sometimes strikers click one year, simply finally 'getting it' (whatever it is for them - an attitude, a technique, etc), and one who may look to you like 10-15 goals a season at best, could bang in those 25. One who has only ever achieved up to 10-15 in his career might show something that our scouts/Hughton might recognise as being the sort of player that will excel in our system and knock in 25+ goals.

Just because you can't think of one, just because no one on here can name one, doesn't mean there wasn't one.
