[Albion] Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[TottonSeagull]

Not really. We went down to 10 men. That’s what killed us today.

We’d have done very well to hold onto the point. Nearly did. Dunks fault but have to forgive him as he’s only human and saved us so many times down the years.

(Shocker to see you on here after we lose [emoji6])

I have been on here all the time and praised Potter. We are very suspect at holding leads and are up there for teams that lose leads and give away late goals. A draw is the least we should have come back with today even with Dunk being sent off. We need to address our mental weakness next season.

This. If we went on to win, it probably would have been hailed as the right call. But for me, and without trying to sound petulant (but probably doing so anyway), if the ref does his job and gives us that pen in the first half and we score, Dunk doesn’t tug the shirt of Silva. A game of what could have been, again.

Cheated there by the ref and VAR imo

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Near certain goal? Really?

clean through 1 on 1 with time to set himself??
yeah that's as close as you get to a near certain goal opportunity for me.

Sanchez may have saved it it but I'm betting the xg on that opportunity is pretty high.

Well (sigh....) that was soooooo inevitable... you could even have predicted the timings of their goals, almost down to the exact second. I don't know why, but we're so fallible at times, so fragile too. We had a real chance to show our fight and at least get a point. The 90th min curse strikes again... countless times, time and time again in whatever division we seem to specialise in last gasp defeats... it's agonising.

I'm a bit grumpy after that.

It's pointless playing the blame game, Lewis, Neil ... 1st half failings... ultimately it adds up to too many narrow defeats... something does need to change this summer. We really do need a striker, desperately so... otherwise I foresee yet another season of brutal agony and nearly men fables.

 

[Mancgull]

I thought we missed Veltman second half today. His composure would have helped considerably. Hope he’s back for the next game as we’ll obviously miss Dunk.

Tomorrow evening after the Burnley match, all this will be a bad nightmare. Or will it!!!!!

And the award for overreaction of the day goes to...

Same could be said for Andone?

I blame Potter.






Edit - well nobody else had yet.....

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Oh Lewis you silly, silly boy.

Foolishly I thought we were going to hold on for a point. Have I learnt nothing about us?!

 

[Bridcutt]

Frustrating that this team still has 'these' performances happen. Horrible feeling conceding in the last mins

I don't understand some fans. Maupay gets sent off, a stupid stupid stupid stupid FFS moment of madness and they are really happy he's not going to play for at least 2 or maybe 3 games. Yes moan at Maupay but don't be happy his gone.

Mzybe Dunk wanted to save Sanchez getting sent off? Nah he just didnt think and reacted in the wrong way.

Last week we won and we were world beaters, this week we lost and we are in a relegation battle again. The only thing funny about this weekend is Portsmouth not making the play offs.

 

[Guinness Boy]

Can you call it a stinker if you lose with 10 men though?

If we keep 11 on the field and lose that would be a stinker. No question.

The issue is, as much as that was a very poor decision by Dunk, he was forced into making a choice because we came out of the sheds half asleep. Too many times this season.

Because Dunk had a split second to make a deicsion and his instant reaction was to save a near certain goal.

It wasn't near certain.

Hasn’t that guy got 1 goal all season? Forget xG, Dunk should know who he’s marking. If it was Jiminez, yeah tug his shirt because he’s likely to score. A teenager who hasn’t looked like buying a goal, definitely don’t tug it.

 

[jimhigham]

How the **** have we contrived to lose this game ?

That’s the tag line for the end of season DVD, isn’t it?

Either that or it’s going on t-shirts for the club shop.

Yeah this.

He's gotten 4, scored in their last game actually, I think that would of been a goal personally.

 

[KeegansHairPiece]

Definitely not. If it was Coady on Maupay we’d be laughing calling it a near certain chance!!

 

[Not Andy Naylor]

If Fulham can win three and draw one against Burnley, Stains, Manchester United and Newcastle then they deserve to stay up. Something tells me they won't, though ...
