Was the result fair?

The result reflected the play. Forest better in the first half, us in the second. Forest finishing in the ascendency.

Pretty much as I saw it too.

 

[Baron Pepperpot]

In my 35 years of supporting Brighton I have never moaned once about any player or manager, that is now all going to change. Casper you are a clown of the highest order, that is unforgivable, you should not be allowed on the coach tonight, make your own way back to Brighton with the fans, then pack your bags and **** off, dont care if the pig is injured at least we have Brez. You have made too many mistakes in the past but today was schoolboy stuff. I watched Plymouth v Exeter earlier, bottom (ish) of Division 2 and you make their goalkeeper look like Gordon Banks, clear off we dont need your sort round here.

You've had enough now, I'll call a taxi.....

Although you may have had a coffee since as your follow up post was pretty sound..

 

[ThePolishJig]

Surely extended highlights, game of the day(before KO)

 

[L'hampton Eagle]

How can you come on here and gloat after conceding 7 goals in two games with out reply? Tw@t of the highest order alert.

You've taken 4 points over last two games we've lost two, ok got stuffed in last two yet we're still 5 points ahead of you

Hopefully not for much longer

Yep we are terrible, spanked you and stopped you going second then drew AWAY at the form team who'd won 6 on the spin before yesterday. Are you confident of staying in the top 6?

 

[L'hampton Eagle]

Not confident, am cacking it! if we lose Mon and again V Barnsley Sat then I will be very very worried of dropping out of play offs all together.


Am trying to keep the faith.

 

[Rugrat]

Yes, we almost certainly should be three more points to the good this evening, but shit happened

The way I see it is we are 3 points to the good. Realistically Forest are our principal rivals now and we've left their place with 1 point and deprived them of 2 .. same logic says if we'd won we'd be 6 points better off but I'm more than happy with the 3

Blackpool's pitch is actually a cowfield and Barnsley are in form at the moment , in all honesty it looks like another 0 points from 6.

I think it would only be right and proper if you did - the Championship needs the bigger and better clubs representing it in the playoffs. And can you take Watford/Udinese with you when you go.

Nice to see you've updated the home league attendances , another abysmal attendance at Smellhurst in light of them being able to go 2nd with a win lolol but conceding FOUR goals in the process.

Well there was a forecast of rain.

Will they exceed last seasons pathetic attempt ? 14.5k needed in 3 games - it will be touch and go now the wheels have fallen off, however a large following from Leicester might just save them.

God help the Premiership if that bunch of "no shows" ever limp into it.

I'm diggin' your logic there Rugsta. Nice 1.

How many times has your average been higher? go on count them, considering how many teams you have on your door step
your support has been crap over the years until the free train tickets and all the kiddie and family fans have turned up to jump on bandwagon

As i've said to you on numerous occasions, which you ignore, highlight the seasons since 1947 when the Clubs shared a division and a similar sized stadium and you will find that we average higher than you. Nothing to do with new stadiums.

You have over 6 million people living within 10 miles of you South of the Thames- we have 1.5 million within a 35 mile radius from Brighton. I know the re-emergance of Wimbledon has threatened your crowds - but please
