Why have we started hoofing it?

[Football Genius aka FG]

excellent question

the answer is SC hasnt a clue and we lack skill ability vision tactical awareness and SC is taking us further down that was a disgrace on Saturday and we should be demanding our money back i mean where was he entertainment of a sending off, the way we were pulled apart for the opening goal and what clown gave Oatway MOM it was Gary Hart he did little but he did score a very good goal in open play more than anyone else did he was the only MOM scoring a poor 3 outta 10 as for Roberts he gets half out of 10 before long he will cost us a goal and a game by racing outta his goal for *** sake if you do it man at least get the ******* ball!

We desperately need to play the ball to feet or play Henderson up front ALWAYS with Leon if we play the long ball as he needs to hold it up for Leon trouble is he aint good enough! And we commit 2 forward and only one capable of getting the long ball easy to defend against we are limited unless we play simple short balls moving up in triangles and the like we will FAIL and slip very quickly down the league we were amazingly lucky 5th after a draw Swindon outplayed us we only played for 10 mins in 90 they were robbed and we were lucky to get a point.

It is so essential that we get a playmaker in midfield in that second half as seen so often before where the **** were the midfield why must we push out i mean crawl out so slowly outta defence?

Time to push the VD man to the East end of London Silent and appoint a true Albion legend....welcome ... DEAN WILKINS

I remember the odd hoof under ma but i also remember us playing 3 up front and utilising the wingers much more than we do now. the most hoofing ive seen in the last 5 years was last season and in parts this year. to hoof is ok if u have players who can deal with it. bob couldnt last year- he needs it to feet and leon cant this year- he needs it to feet.

Didn't see the last couple of matches I'm afraid. But from what I have seen, SC is a better manager than you think.

 

[the right footed denilson]

im not questioning sc. i dont doubt his ability and i rate him as highly if not higher than ma. im questioning his current deceison to play long ball.

 

[BrightonBird]

Sorry! Although MA played long ball alot more.

 

[Rougvie]

brighton bird- we dont play a passing game!!!! we did for maybe 15 minute against qpr and thats it!! we hoof it all the time.

We played to feet for about 20 minutes against Plymouth severely outclassed them and went 3-1 up.
We then ran out of ideas, and it seems to be that when we are under pressure the hoofing starts and the ideas stop.
If we continue with this style of play we will not even get into the play offs.
The frustrating thing to many is that when we do play to feet I have not seen anyone this season who can live with it, we have the potential to go up as champions, I think it is about time that the players started believing in that.

We were shocking yesterday, but still got a point. It can only (and has to) get better. Little Leon should shout at the other players to keep the ball down. Woeful tactics yesterday, it was like Taylor being in charge again!

I have faith in SC, he just needs to get them passing again and quickly.

I'm exhausted after reading that sentance.

Simple, Hinsch is not a full back, midfield inept with him and anyone else with the ability to hold the ball. We looked better with Harding fro Carpenter.

we need a new midfielder!

Junior Lewis anyone?

[bigc]

yeah fair enough, i think we need an extra experienced pro in there for the players to learn from

I thought we looked a lot better in the last 20 mins or so when Rodger went into the middle. He's not a left winger and that showed. He has the quality to pass from midfield but it would help if the midfield wasn't by-passed by long balls out of defence.
