Positives from today

[Quinney]

We got 3 shots on target and 12 off, just as well we've been working on shooting practice during the international break.

 

[The Oldman]

Left on final whistle, in car at Racecourse P & R at 5.20.

 

[el punal]

Hope its not ebola!

No, he's been signed by Arsenal. (Sorry, old joke!)

 

[the wanderbus]

The guest pie was magnificent!

If it was sausage and baked bean pie it was fantastic but if , as Iwas told, it was sausage MASH and baked bean someone forgot the potato's

 

[the wanderbus]

How he managed to not find one of the 3 unmarked Albion players from 15 yards late in the game baffles me?

Ithought that was a perfect example of how to thread the ball through a group of players. Now he just needs to learn that its the opposition players he's supposed to take out of the game

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

I missed the first ten minutes and with the live stream having no commentary or score captions I spent 35 minutes thinking it was 0-0. In hindsight that was a pretty big positive.

 

[Goldstone1976]

Positives? Hmmm. I didn't crash my car on the drive home and I had a very tasty cold roast pork sandwich with a glass of malt in front of the telly.

The game was almost unremittingly dreadful. Paddy's mazy run and incisive through balls were probably the only thing I actually enjoyed. While I still leapt to my feet when GG scored, I can't in all honesty say I got much enjoyment from his goal; partly because it further emphasised that we can only score from set pieces, but mostly because I was as confident as it's possible to be that we wouldn't score again.

We were woeful. Just woeful.

We score goals from set pieces - especially corners. Well done GG today for that and Dunk in other games.

Yep. Our corners have improved from always shite to sometimes not quite as shite.

 

[empire]

The trains superb

 

[VAL1850]

Nice new Bandstand - is it permanent ??

Palace lost - plus 8 - 0

 

[neilbard]

I didn't take the 11/8 on offer for the win

 

[Brighton Mod]

Buy four get one free for dining packages in the 1901, that's £96 per head though, shocking value, devoid of ideas off the pitch as well as on it!! The positive being the free one.

 

[Tim Over Whelmed]

Had a traffic free drive down, got a cracking parking space and it then went rapidly down hill!

 

[Raskolnikov]

Thought O'Grady played with a lot passion, clearly not our best player but it was good to see someone who looked like they were giving it their all yesterday!

 

[garethjamesuk]

I thought Stockdale looked dodgy as ever, why did we sign him when we have a talented England under 19 keeper, why not play him, why did we get bennett on loan when chicksen is properly as good as him, why get in holla yes he is decent but is no better than ince who was our young player of year last season now cant get a game, why did we sign o grady, baldock and counago when none of them look at all good enough for this standard.
I think these signings could have been spent on better players such as a proven striker, young centre back and a winger.
in yesterdays game the best player was Lua Lua who worked hard and played well, i think dunk was also okay the rest very very poor.

 

[portslade seagull]

There wasn't a queue when I brought my pint in WSU and it was 2:30

My take on it is they signed as many as they could disregarding ability in the hope that at least 1 might come good ... sadly the jury is still out on all of them apart from Toko who looks like he will never get a game

I too noticed the shorter queues in the WSU.

Could this be a result of fewer actually attending games these days and those there, spending less? Not good for TB's cash flows spreadsheet.

 

[chucky1973]

I didn't go.
