**The Official Match Thread - Millwall vs BHA***

? We're playing Bournemouth In a couple of weeks. Their form is VERY relevant.

Their form is far superior to ours this season and surely Blackburn is more relevant?

Tire them out and then release him on a tired right back..

I'm sure we write this sort of thing before every game...

Already said Blackburn was earlier in the thread.

some sense at last. it's better to have some good cards to deal later on - if required.

 

[maltaseagull]

Is it?

It seems to me to be more a case of which Brighton and Hove Albion shows up - the one which beat Ipswich and Derby, or the one that couldn't score home or away against Blackpool. We're so inconsistent that our opponent's form doesn't seem to matter.

If thumbs up were available, I would have. Please take this as a thumbs up

 

[nwgull]

If we actually started an away game on the front foot we might actually score some goals and pick up some points. As it is, we encourage teams in poor form by sitting back and inevitably end up losing without threatening the score sheet.

We tried that at Bolton the other week - same outcome.

 

[severnside gull]

Still well under the cosh. We don't seem to want to keep the ball - most of our passes are going to their players

 

[symyjym]

We are awful

 

[spanish flair]

It seems alI I keep hearing is Albion player X gives it away

 

[Simster]

Exactly. Its nice that our blind labrador pants and chases every single ball so that things are made a little easier for our proper strikers, but it would be so much better if he could actually SCORE in the 65 minutes he usually gets.

I've got thumbs on my PC. I've just given you a thumb's up!

Can't help thinking the constant tactical tinkering is unhelpful. Our players aren't good enough to cope with change after years of "we are Brighton. We only play one way"

One of the reasons why I'm not convinced by Hughton. Far too negative away from home with a team that can't defend that well and offers nothing up front giving the advantage to the home team..everytime.

Teams grow in confidence against Brighton because it is clear we are playing with fear away from home.

Love to be wrong but I expect us to get beat tonight

 

[Codner's Wallop]

I do wish JC would stop referring to our previous great away record against Millwall. It counts for ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

I don't mind it on a cold night in Cardiff, but this is Millwall. 1500 away fans and utterly shit opposition. We should be looking to win this.

isn't it obvious that CH is using an opportunity afforded to very few managers, ie the chance to look at everyone, in different formations and positions, without compromising our league position next season, with a view to sorting out the wheat from the chaff?

















if you're reading this Chris, Mackail Smith and Best are not the answer!!!

This, in spades. Five defenders, three central midfielders and two pseudo strikers. Way too negative
