The Owls were given a footballing masterclass

According to the Sheffield paper:

The Owls were given a footballing masterclass by a Brighton outfit destined for bigger and better things.

Championship football beckons for the runaway league leaders, who clinched an 11th win on the trot at the Withdean Stadium in all competitions and, despite the sweltering heat on the South Coast, hardly broke sweat.

Gus Poyet’s entertainers brushed aside toothless Wednesday with minimum fuss

A fair write-up apart from yet another quote stating Bridcutt is on loan from Chelsea!?! Has his transfer and contract with us failed to log with the FA or something?

Even Mike Ward and John Byrne were talking about this in the phone in. Ward is clueless half the time so no surprise there, - "It would be great to keep Bridcutt, but would he really want to leave Chelsea?"
:facepalm:

did my head on the drive home. Is it really that difficult for pundits on a phone in about our club to know how is ours and who is on loan

I like the fact that some Owls fans consider us and the way we play to be what they should aim to achieve next year :clap:

Yep.. I heard the same on the phone in about Bridcutt.. I was hoping someone would call in and 'correct' them.

Agreed, Ward is indeed clueless. I find it incredible he has a platform to spout off about all things Albion related and influence people yet consistently reminds why I think hes clueless.

Come on Mr Ward, do you not even remember the talk of getting Bridcutt on a contract till at least the end of this season?! A contract at Brighton and Hove Albion, the team your talking about, not Chelsea.

I don't understand how the Beeb works out their stats
They have us with 48% and them with 52% possession

How does that work if we that good?

To be fair to John Byrne, i don't think he was part of the Bridcutt error. Pretty sure the discussion was between Mike Ward & Richie Reynolds.

The possession stat is meaningless a lot of the time, you could have a the ball 99% of the time but if you are passing around between your back four you won't score and it's more likely a mistake will be punished. It's what you do with the ball when you have it thats important.

The bbc possesion stats are updated for ten minute periods. So the stat given is for the last ten minutes, not the whole game.
