On his last warning
He was useless, maybe their worst performer. Shouldn't he admit he was shit instead of slating the team? He's not the manager.
Humility clearly isn't a strong point of his. Maybe they should change their captain?
Blimey. Something very wrong.

Not a happy chappy

Not happy.
I wonder if any of his teams criticism was aimed at himself, his response to our fifth goal was embarrassing, playing us onside then failing to track back. You'd shout at a schoolboy for that type of defending.

What's most shocking about this entire day is that someone is still using an iPhone 4.
...and to record a post-match interview...

Oh dear - they lost to a team "like Brighton".

A total gulf in class between the two managers, not a single word in praise of the Albion today, whereas, win, lose or draw CH always has a decent word about the opposition

Players say nothing of substance = moan.
Players speak the truth and call out the team after a 5-0 wallopping = moan.
If we lost 5-0 to Bristol City next weekend, I want Lewis Dunk coming out and saying he's had strong words with the team, because it would be the right thing to do.
But ultimately they've been mugged off by their goalkeeper today, and the ineffective performances of Tettey, Pritchard, Dorrans and Hoolahan in midfield. They were poor but not 5-0 poor without a shocking excuse for a keeper.

Long may Neill remain manager and Martin remain captain. Teams that get promoted don't capitulate like that.
A manager under BIG pressure.
He knows that they need to turn around their slump in the next few games or he's sacked.
We've averaged 2pts per game for the last 60 games in this division. With Newcastle looking like running away with it, the board will know they cannot leave it for long without bringing in a new man or the autos will be gone.

Think it's a bit unrealistic to expect gushing praise for us from Norwich today, they are hurting badly and this was the fourth in a poor run of games for them.
They are (rightly) one of the big favourites for automatic promotion with a very good team, but they didn't turn up this afternoon, we bullied them from the first whistle, and they have been absolutely humiliated with at least 4 of the goals stemming from individual errors. Personally I thought Martin called it absolutely spot on, and I daresay he includes himself in wanting a reaction in their next game.
Brighton were playing it down afterwards but this was a huge win, especially since we won 1/10 against the rest of the top six last season. Considering we were top for most of it, that is an amazing stat.

Apparently CH used to get slated for praising the opposition when he was Norwich manager.
A bit of courtesy is nice though IMO.

Hollingdean ****! Good of him to put his money into a kids academy in Brighton though.

Really honest feedback - sort of reaction any club should want from their captain. He was rubbish today but not as bad as others...

Mind you, a lot of the family and friends at the game are probably Albion supporters
