[Albion] Newport County vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Mr Banana]

Commentator is so, so bad. Sensationalist itv shite. "A classic" "Seagull boys"

Would like to see Tau for Ali J sooner rather than later.

Anyone for Ali J gets my vote.

 

[elwheelio]

Yep, agree. Potter has managed to turn our stand out player into a bang average centre half!

I'm guessing it's playing three at the back that is affecting Dunk. Then again we're shipping goals all over the place so perhaps it's just a drop in form and inferior coaching. For all the young players coming through, it's noticeable how some of our "better" players like Ryan and Dunk appear to be getting worse.

The pitch looks like a skating ring, seems quite dangerous.

 

[R. Slicker]

Christ, I don't look at this thread if I'm watching a stream, for obvious reasons.
Just popped on at HT to see what the general consensus is as I thought it wasn't a bad half on a difficult surface.,
Big mistake. there are some right joyful souls on here aren't here.

 

[Questions]

I don’t understand where Ali J is playing or Mac or Gross. To be fair I’ve struggled since football moved on from the old W formation..

 

[The Fits]

Newport are really disappointing. Was expecting blood and thunder.

 

[Phil B]

At the start of this season, the Newport pitch looked superb, strangely green due to grass.

But it seems to be regressing to its normal beachlike look .....

 

[Driver8]

Time to release the lion.

 

[Seagull58]

If they are sensible enough to get tight on Biss 2nd half we will be totally stymied.

 

[southstandandy]

On a positive not we're lucky to not be behind with those two chances they had. Better 2nd half please.

 

[Dorset Seagull]

Going direct is all very well but who is going to hold the ball up. I don’t know what people expect as we are controlling the game on a difficult pitch. Newport haven’t offered much and I’m a bit disappointed with them to be honest. Think we will nick one in the second half as 1-0 will be good enough

 

[Seasider78]

Would like to see us put a few over the top in the channels for Maupay as the ball is sticking and slowing up

 

[Hamilton]

Steele?

Potter picked him ahead of Ryan and Walton.

I bet Man City are worried about facing Bissouma on Wednesday.

Oh!

Bissouma tripped over a rut. They really shouldn’t be able to play rugby on a football league pitch.

On a more interesting note who is the seagull fan shown up the tree

 

[Swansman]

Newport are really disappointing. Was expecting blood and thunder.

Its just not possible out there. Quite evident that doing a lot of tackling and fighting out there is pretty much going to end in getting injured. Second half is most likely going to be equally slow.. and boring.

 

[Brighton Mackem]

Steele is bringing back memories

 

[Hugo Rune]

Time to release the lion.

Amen.

Zeqiri & Jahanbakhsh will be the ones to give way. I’d like to see Khadra also.
