[Albion] Palace away: one point gained or two points dropped?

[blue-shifted]

A draw, by definition, is one point gained and two points dropped

 

[Hungry Joe]

For me, any draw away from home in the PL is a point gained. If football were all about domination of possession and chances created then maybe it would be different, but it's not.

 

[Mellor 3 Ward 4]

Should be beating the little teams.

 

[OzMike]

Happy with the away point, but should have been 3 up by half time.

 

[The Kid Frankie]

We didn't lose to the *****. That is all that matters. We still have the bragging rights after last season.

2 dropped.Dominated for most of the match.To have that many shots on target and only get one?

Yes, the fact that we dominated for so long and come away with only a draw is so disappointing. It was at half time, I think, when the commentator said that for all their dominance, Brighton had not got behind Palace that much. We played so well until we got to their box and then we did tend to flounder somewhat. But one mustn't be unduly critical -it was a superb performance.

 

[Lever]

Loud booing at half time from the Palace fans tells me they recognised just how bad their team's performance was; we undoubtedly should have been ahead at that point. Two points lost.... but a special second half effort from a talented player who harbours an openly declared hatred of the Albion was always a possibility.
