[Albion] Positives from Today (Burnley)

[birthofanorange]

Agree. The first half was awful. Embarrassing that we were served up such boring crap by professional footballers. And what the hell RDZ was doing with Baleba is beyond me. His presence at the back did absolutely nothing to enhance our performance and we looked like a team that had no idea what they were doing. Worst 45 minutes I have seen from Brighton in a very long time.

Funniest post on this thread - well done.

• It wasn't boring.
• We tried hard in the second half
• RDZ made changes at half time, not sure Potter would have
• We don't have Potter as a manager
• Hinshelwood looks very very promising
• We had 8 minutes of added time, which was fair
• Adringa had another good game.

Nothing. But if you are happy after that, then I'd question how much you're really bothered.

Different people react differently to bad news. Plenty of people have already adjusted themselves to the result while watching the game.
Of course, it's entirely possible that everybody who sits around you is an arsehole and you're the only one who really cares.

 

[Bakero]

He should of scored with one of his headers

It would have been nice. He did score one the other day to be fair. The good thing is he's getting in the right positions. I reckon he'll score a fair few in the coming years.

 

[Pavilionaire]

I think the main positive is that we dominated the game with 72% possession and 29 shots, 11 on target. We are still in our groove going into Thursday.

 

[Westdene Seagull]

Thought they changed every game

The pre-match briefing always says "Guest Pie of the Month"

I wrote after that game that it was the sort of header where normally it's missed and everybody moans that it should be scored 9 times out of 10.

No one is happy, we can just all see the bigger picture. We wanted a win but it’s another point and four from two games at a period of the season where we are playing every few days with horrendous injuries. If you can’t win don’t lose.

 

[Brighton1959]

Decent amount of time for players to recharge before Thursday meaning we should start with Igor, Gilmour and Mitoma + Marseilles play tomorrow night away to - no it can’t be Leyton Orient!

 

[British Bulldog]

With all our injuries and all our games we are still there in the pack, Yes a win would have been nice but a defeat would have been a lot worse.

 

[raymondo]

I believe we equalled Wolves record today from 1934 of scoring and conceding in the first 16 games of a top flight season.

We'll set a far superior target ...at this rate

 

[raymondo]

Neighbourhood watch is getting worried. Actually in Hereford Thursday evening...irony?

Twitchy curtains? Please tell me there's an Oakwood road in Hereford?...uh oh, google maps says 'no'

 

[Quebec Seagull]

We're not at our best at the moment, but still 8th and into the knock out stages of Europe. come on...
Wait till we get Pervis and Enciso back.

To state the obvious ...

After sh!!!ing the bed against teams below us the past couple of months, we won't pick up a heckuva lotta points against the likes of Arsenal unless the list of injured soon shrinks considerably and we have a steady starting XI. Otherwise, it will be a struggle just to reach 50 points, at this rate.

On the brighter side, I'm so used to my North American sports teams underperforming and/or being wracked by injuries that I can shrug off the frustration and disappointment in a matter of minutes. Besides, rooting for perennial winners would be boring!

Positive from today ? RDZ will know not to pick that starting XI again. (Lallana, Milner & Gross = no pace)

Disagree.

We struggle far more against teams that sit back than against teams looking to play.

More concerned about playing Palace than I am Arsenal

 

[Sussax]

I won’t name and shame the pub I had an awful experience with post match.

Another point added from a losing position.

Points added to the board.

We went for for it.

 

[Flounce]

The day when a team gets a thumping from us is one day closer….

 

[Diablo]

The day when a team gets a thumping from us is one day closer….

As is the day we win the league but also the day we get relegated.

 

[Albion in the north]

Well there must have been some given the jollity among a lot of the fans in the East Stand Upper after the game. No-one seemed as peed off or frustrated as me. Convinced half the people up there aren't even proper Albion fans.

Just wondering what you think is a "proper Albion fan"? And who is on the judging panel?

Why not he has picked them before
