[Brighton Sky Blue]

Funny how the opposition never pass up their sitters

Awful

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Dammit. Another Burge mistake? Going to be difficult now they've scored - almost impossible if we keep playing like this.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Player completely unmarked to head it across goal. Dreadful marking

 

[Esoterica]

Horrible defending, 4 players on the goal line when that was poked in.

 

[Johhny Blue]

But was it over the line ?

Yes

 

[Great_Expectations]

You mean: Let us attack, MR
Punctuation is important!

No, no, I meant exactly that.

It wasn't really Burge, he was blocked off

You know you're in trouble when someone from Glasgow is correcting your punctuation.

I'd take umbrage at that if I were a Scot.

MR doesn’t appear to know any other way..

 

[PVA]

Terrible defending for the goal.

Might as well be playing with 9 men for all that Hiwula and Shipley are offering.

 

[Grendel]

Free kick sums it up, Clarke Harris v 3 defenders no other player in sight

I think to be a mistake you have to do something. He did nothing

 

[superskyblue]

No fluidity - it's like they've never played together. Nobody covering themselves in glory but JCH offers absolutely nothing. We've got about 7 strikers on the books. If he's our best option we really are in trouble.

 

[itsabuzzard]

Basically whole ball over whole of the line. From that it's not conclusive the whole ball is over the whole of the line. You can have green showing between the ball and goalline but part of the ball might not have crossed the line because of the curvature.

I know the rule. Looked well over to me.

If you were a Scot you'd take umbrage at everything

Ever played football with somebody who never delivers any sort of service. Eventually you stop making runs for them.

Don't let our phantom goal give anyone a chance to make excuses.

We've set up extremely negative and when we get forward we look like we don't want to attack them. I genuinely wonder how many times we've given the ball away in this game. Could be 100 by the end of it!

Their goal initially came from a free kick where it looked like Grimmer got the ball. Kelly then stood still when the ref hadn't even blown his whistle and effectively made the decision for him.

Corner following that was a joke. No one marking their guy on that back post.

We don't want to win this game and have not set up to do so. Anyone that has paid for a ticket should be allowed to question a refund. We aren't even trying and haven't even set up to plan to try and beat them.

Let's not even start on our fucking end product again either!

 

[Great_Expectations]

Has the ball gone anywhere near him?

We’ve been awful offensively I agree, but he’s part of that. He isn’t offering anything and when he gets it hes poor.

Everyone knows you are massively bias, but wind ups aside, Biamou would offer more.

 

[Esoterica]

Kelly and Brown the only ones coming out of this half with any credit. Our final 3rd passing has been very poor.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Huge advantage kicking towards their fans second half

 

[Paxman II]

good ball in from grimmer but again JCH not running to the near post

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

From the club website:

43’ Coventry have been the better side since Luton broke the deadlock, Junior Brown works his way into the box but his cross is cleared.

 

[Great_Expectations]

So defensive and clueless it’s unreal.

Good job MR is great at HT team talks.

 

[Nick]

It sounds awful

Pathetic comment - whoever plays up front robins isolates and plays the other two of the 3 in wide positions

Agree with that. Kelly has been neat and tidy and putting himself about well. Brown much better than usual today.

 

[Grendel]

It sounds awful

It looks even worse

Highlight of the game - little kid crying saying ‘I want to go home’!

Don’t we all kid, don’t we all!

I don't think we have been as bad this season as some have but no doubt about it it is u forgivable to not try win st home

Robin's has a half time now to get them motivated to score. If they don't give it a good go maybe changes are needed

That said after last 2 year's maybe we just need to accept avoiding relegation and giving MR another summer to change squad

 

[superskyblue]

It really isn't. He never delivered when he was in a front two and he's not delivering up top alone. If you were Bayliss, Thomas etc. you'd soon enough stop making runs.

 

[Grendel]

We are starting to drop like a stone - it’s a toothless display

 

[Esoterica]

Are there any formations left we haven't tried this season?
