Bruno was brought on so that Halford could go up front to support O'Gravy and Worst.
22 games this season we have gone behind. We have won one of them.
Our record going behind since coming to the Amex has been terrible. Under Poyet, under Oscar, under Hyypia, and now under Hughton. With JFC, without him. With Stockdale, Kuszczak, Brezovan, Ankergren, without them. With Bridge, Ward, Painter, Mattock and Bennett. With Bruno, with Calderon, with Reyes. With CMS, Best, Ulloa, Barnes, O'Grady, Paynter, Lita, Hoskins, Dobbie, Vokes, Agdestein, or without them. With or without two wingers. With Greer, Dunk, Upson, El Abd, without them.
It can't simply be the managers or the players.

And on the bright side we are not Reading fans. A drum and a trumpet, that famous Neil Diamond football anthum and darts goal music.
I have to agree. When i saw that a few that have been in the winning sides (3 out of last 4 games) left out, and JFC in, my heart sank. Too many changes with weaker players coming in. No Tex, no flair, no Calde, no passion, no Bruno and Calde no attacks down the right flank.
JFC reminds me of Butch Wilkins, the crab.

So CH got it wrong tonight with his team selection. Hardly a disaster is it. No manager is going to get it right every match.

What?
There's letting off steam after a shit game Simster and then there's being a bit of a drama queen, try staying on the right line there or Finchley Seagull's gonna get you with his unique brand of fun

Before I take my leave I wanted to strenuously defend poor olde JFC. He's a maverick you see, he has 'vision', he can see a pass as I a cliche. Akin to a fretless bass wielding jazz master of yore, he's utterly lost in the earthy beat combo of our midfield. It's writ large on his face, he's being strangled by the limitations of those around him - I urge you to fly Jake, take to the sky, catch that rainbow and any other inspiring words someone may have said to you in your life... Only you have the power to unleash, or rather, unearth you God given potential, drop the bushel and let your light illuminate others... as it has me.
God bless you son; you're living the dream, just don't dream through your life.

And we didnt make utter tits of ourselves by pitch invading to celebrate a play-off position they didnt actually win. Hey ho, at least we can still enjoy this -

The entire Albion squad/management should give their wages to Dick Head for his forthcoming psychotherapy
My psychotherapist was doing a group therapy session with me, my mum and three other mothers and their children. "You all have obsessions," he observed.
To the first mother he said, "You are obsessed with eating. You even named your daughter Candy."
He turned to the second mother. "Your obsession is money. Again, it manifests itself in your child's name, Penny."
He turned to the third mum. "Your obsession is alcohol and your child's name is Brandy."
At this point, my mum got up, took me by the hand and whispered, "Come on, Dick, let's go home."
Barrel of Fun
Abort, retry, fail
To quote Liam Brady...
Were they all fit? Our away form is pretty poor. He tried something different and we lost narrowly.
What a catty thread tonight (no, not referring to you, Glasfryn)! Glad I had to go out at half time............
It seems CH got it wrong tonight, and that making five changes to a winning side was not a good idea. Still in Camp Hughton, though - he's got far more right than he's got wrong; tonight might have been a gamble, but it didn't work.
Mind you, five changes for Saturday ARE now required (I think we can all fill in most of the names involved!)

The stats are 1 in 10 win from behind across all PL games. A single extra win would equal that

Once Caskey was named in the side I think we all knew what the outcome would be. I had a big groan as did my sons even the dog had a disappointed look on his face.

It was so wrong tonight and let us fans down. If he wants to experiment can he tell us first so we won't spend our hard earned cash.

I am in bed, I have a laptop. Gone are the days of dragging my massive desktop and monitor betwixt the sheets, too many wires and a rather uncomfortable experience to say the least. Although the mouse did have it's plus points. Ignore that last bit.

In order to win you have to first show a sign that you might score. We showed nothing. Poor COG had little service and then nobody supporting him. Then we bought Best on, who is just not up to it.
Ledesma is equally poor. Together with Halford down the wing they were terrible.
I think this has shown that Best, Ledesma and JFC have no place in a future Albion team. Sorry JFC supporters, but I just don't see it.
Too many experiments tonight.
