[Brighton Sky Blue]

We probably have to be honest

This selection doesn’t suggest that to me, we don’t have the physicality or ability to try and hold them at bay for 90 mins.

Why is Bakayoko on the bench, I mean, why not just give the guy the day off ffs!

Yeah, I don’t think we’ll actively try to defend for 90 minutes, but that doesn’t mean we won’t end up doing just that!

Happy with the team selection and credit to MR for sticking with a winning team.

I suspect Eccles may be tested more defensively today, but he has experience playing at the back so that should helps

Pleased to see Pask in his favoured position again. Him and Eccles may be targeted today as the less experienced in the team, and as a right sided combination.

Godden is a hard worker but let’s hope he doesn’t overdo it today, I’m sure he’ll be a planned change at some point.

I think a draw is very much on the cards here, let’s just hope we don’t show them too much respect and sit too deep.

He’s bottled it quite frankly, he’s shit himself again at this level.

He tried to make changes but players wouldn’t allow it due to a lack a respect for MR, and/or they don’t want to play for him.

Pask will most likely be the left centre back again.

To give some balance.

If he's not on it, it tends to tip over a bit.

Of course, all I want to see is us giving them a proper game. And for Steve Cook to get scythed

We should take Nick’s advice for Cook. In fact I’d pay to see it.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Nice to see a decent pitch for once (although I would have preferred a mud heap that they couldn't pass on !)

given we've got two other strikers on the bench it is a bit of a strange one.

I heard he asked Eccles to play CM & he refused. Lost the dressing room. RoBbins OwT

Exactly, there's no possible circumstance that sees him getting on the park, so wtf is he doing there?

We owe that prick Cook a receipt from the first game, hate him

 

[Blind-Faith]

Just seen the line up. Glad robins has stuck with it, might aswell go two up top against these and give them a game. We aren’t good enough to park the bus for 90 minutes

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

We should take Nick’s advice for Cook. In fact I’d pay to see it.

Hopefully this afternoon we have done just that.

With a bit of justice Gus will get on to rake the twat

 

[Sky_Blue_Daz]

[Nick]

Another ref kit clash

Which reminds me, the Masters is on later.

Another ref kit clash

They're all meant to wear the same mate

 

[SIR ERNIE]

be nice to get through the first 20/25 mins without conceding.

 

[PVA]

A look at the subs shows the gulf in class here.

A point would be a brilliant result.

I know, Bakayoko alone gives us the advantage.

 

[fatso]

Well that's a good start!
