This shows how one sided it was

Can't wait for Leeds game based on that!

Unlucky for us that their keeper Moore saved their skins much the same as Marshall did in the same fixture last season.

Yeh, just one of those days. Fortunately, that dominance shows that we're justifiably topppa the league right now, and if we continue to play that way over the next 36, we'll win at least 20 and finish top 2.

It wasn't just me then.

Was very happy with that today, such a major improvement on last season, think today proved that brighton can definitely challenge for promotion.

The most impressive thing today was our urgency. I know they scored the only time they were in our half in the first half but everybody was looking to get things going quickly all game.

It's more frustrating tho out playing teams and only getting a point. I said before the window shut we were one striker short of top two and I still feel the same . Would love the club to get someone in till Jan .

Worth a gamble in the next window.

Excellent display yesterday and for the neutrals, really good entertainment. I thought that for long periods the Albion did look like top of the table material, and the Cardiff boards seem to echo this. But our domination has to be turned into goals, and whilst the problem is nowhere near as acute as last year, it is still simmering this season. We can't always rely on DS to come up with something. I am sure that the club is aware of this and January may see an arrival. Did Reading not get Jason Roberts for the second half of the season a few years ago, and look where it got them.

All teams struggle for goals. We've got 14 already this season, there's only a handful of teams who have scored more. Hemed already has 5, Stephens and LuaLua both notching regularly. It's not easy scoring goals, we're not doing too bad at all.

 

[Hyperion]

Pointless stats if you cannot secure all 3 points. We have dropped 6 points in the last 3 matches. That's the stat that matters. We should be 10 points ahead of 3rd place. Great start to the season in some respects but on the evidence so far (If we want to have a chance of going up) is that we are still 2 attacking players away.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Yesterday was the first time we had gone behind in a league game. We've drawn four games but won the rest. We've been top from the start, so we must be doing things right. Of course it would be great to score more goals, but we are still scoring goals even with injuries & suspensions.
In other words, we are being consistent. Long may it continue.
I found yesterday very entertaining, & we're not going to win them all.

Looking really good at the moment. Bar Reading away, there's nothing on the fixture list that looks too daunting before December. I think at the Madejski we'll get a good idea of what we're really about. On our day, well capable of beating anyone. Other teams may have a few more names that stand out but we do have quality throughout the side, including 2 exceptional central midfielders. I agree that we probably lack the lethal striker that would have us as title contenders for sure, but the guys we have are still very decent. Far better to have a good, hard-working, committed team than a collection of reasonable players and a couple of 'stars', which seems to be more common in the Championship. We're akin to Everton under Moyes right now for grittiness and team ethic. Can't be a bad thing.

I agree. Although the result was disappointing the performance certainly wasn't, particularly after a slow start and conceding an early goal. I'll reserve judgement on the promotion bit until the end of October, which I feel is the right time to assess those teams who have the wherewithal to be in the top six come May. A word of caution though, remember Derby last season, who had the title in the bag until early March - ouch!

I thought we tested Marshall more than Moore last season.

When against Cardiff we won 0-2 in Wales in their promotion season with much the same outrageous under the cosh although Cardiff did not create such clear cut chances against our deep defence back then.

 

[WATFORD zero]

After Marshall's performance last season I was really pleased to see he was suspended for yesterday. Unfortunately his deputy did rather well

they got very excited when they won a corner somtime in the second half.

 

[The Birdman]

It was not only the keeper that saved them it was also the defenders made many good blocks on our crosses and shots.
