[Brighton Sky Blue]

So again we can't put a winning run of more than 2 games together. Only ourselves to blame.

After that game where do people think we will finish now? For me I think we will end up 5th or 6th. A win would have been fantastic, 5 points off the automatics with a game in hand. Not a complete disaster with a good run in coming up but i genuinely couldn't back us in the playoffs, we can't handle pressure!

You said I wasn't drinking. I called you out.

I don't give a fuck if it is Carling. It's alcoholic. It wasn't what I brought either, it was what I was given for being the host.

When was the last time anyone invited you for a drink? There is some serious bitterness from you tonight.

Last time was Sunday, next time is Saturday.

I thought you were drinking properly the way you were going on about it? May as well have had 20 / 20.

Maybe bitter when you want to gloat after a shit result?

It’s a weird season, we’ve been in and around the play offs all season and a point tonight has taken us back in them, yet I’ve felt depressed all season.

Yeah, it's frustrating. This is what sets us aside from the main promotion hopefuls in my opinion, lack of consistency.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Also this myth about us always conceding the lead we’ve only done that twice this season

 

[Nick]

I don't think the Reid substition worked and Shipley was the wrong one to go off .

Think you are right, they are targeting our left then swapped when reid came on

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Yes he stopped a certain one earlier didn't he?
This is not the disaster people are making out.
Dissapoointimg Yes but prior to kick off most didn't expect the win.

I had this down as a score draw before kick off but there is no excuse for anything but a win from 2-0 up. It's all a question of discipline, and Burge/Haynes let theirs drop, not for the first time this season and probably not the last.

 

[Grendel]

The one mistake was leaving Vincenti on - he was garbage in the second half.

 

[covmark]

Isn't me.

Thank fuck.

What was Haynes to blame for?

We haven't played well really. It's been frustrating football to watch on the whole. The only excitement seems to be us fucking things up one way or another, which seems to happen a lot.

MR "Burgey goes for the ball to claim it, doesn't, they score. What we cant do is expect the GK to catch it, the defenders should anticipate he might not"

hmmmmm

The defenders should, but everyone else should expect Burge to get it if he comes. If not, stay on your line.

JCH didn't track his man and left him completely unmarked for the header. Guess that is what he is referring to.

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

This is one shit league and we have players who do shit things at shit times. Burge as keeper when he does those shit mistakes means it costs us points. It's shit but that's why these players are L2 players.

 

[ccfcway]

Willis injured on the training pitch yesterday. Caught studs in astroturf and badly damaged his ankle, a scan will show the damage

 

[SKYBLUES90]

Sorry Robins tactics all wrong again, if we actually continue to put pressure on a team rather than sit back for 80 mins maybe we might go somewhere this season.

We gotta' get out of this place, if it's the last thing we ever do!

MR "i feel a little bit flat and this feels more like a defeat, but we keep moving fwd and now have a 10 game season"

I must have been watching a different game, as the 1st half was very positive

 

[skybluesam66]

I thought it was a good entertaining game

That's not a quote, is it?

Yeah easy to say when in the last 30 minutes they had 3 forwards who’ve scored 50 goals between them

 

[fernandopartridge]

Hope Robins doesn't come out thinking that's acceptable.

Yawn

I know. Great result considering we'd lost 3 nil

 

[Grendel]

Nothing he had a good game.

 

[wingy]

I don't think we should accept mediocrity. That's got us where we are today.

Have we just gone four games unbeaten, three unbeaten.
So did I 2-0
We were heavily in the minority.
30 points to still play for .

We played well tonight.

Yep

 

[covmark]

Yawn

Must admit I was one that said he needed to go when we lost 3 in a row.
I was wrong tbh. We're in with a shout of autos and in with a big shout of playoffs. A draw with Luton ain't a terrible result. As long as we back it up with a win vs Crewe.

Generally it was but we went 1 up and then slowed everything down, second half you could see it happening and it’s been happening for years with city we invite pressure on to us and can’t cope with it.

I'm sure he would have preferred a loss

 

[Westendlad]

I think you have forgotten what life is all about.

No nibbles ?
