Son just went past the Engine on Longford Road and said it looked like it was full of Forest fans.

Shouldn’t he be training for Spurs not commenting on Coventry pubs

Is this the long term loan target? Hopefully he'll be eligible for today.

Our home town, sing your hearts out for the boys

Da Costa at CB and no Bright on a very weak looking bench

Da Costa at CB and no Bright on a very weak looking bench

Think it will be Dabo at CB, he played there a couple of times during pre-season.

Bench looks fine.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Dabo AND DaCosta

Robins’ on crack
Your manager is terrified
Nanananananana

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Desperately need the couple of loans to add to the squad

 

[cc84cov]

No Bright

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

Dabo and DaCosta.

LOL

Fair enough. Feels a bit of a waste though because we need him going forward.

I guess the thinking is that Dabo actually has positional sense compared to da Costa! Da Costa is good going forward at least.

Was it against forest that he had that Stormer of a second half last season? Got some great balls into the box

It was indeed

You don't say

 

[PVA]

One of/both of Rose and Hyam obviously not fit enough for 90.

Presumably it'll be Dabo at CB. Could be interesting, not the greatest defender but better than Da Costa at least!

Allen & Shipley ahead of Bright on the bench is comical

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Getting very spicy on the train

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Allen & Shipley ahead of Bright on the bench is comical

He’s not fit is he

 

[Jamesimus]

Surely DaCosta at CB over Dabo?! I haven't seen or followed any of preseason mind (other than the wallowing self pity on here ). Has Dabo actually played CB before?

Bench isn't great. Youthful midfield. Every time Sheaf has the ball at his feet less than 80 yards away from our goal I'll be screaming at him to get rid.

I imagine we'll see Rose at some point.

 

[mark82]

Bit weird playing 2 RBs.

 

[SBT]

Robins gone full Southgate, wingbacks everywhere you turn.

 

[cc84cov]

Have you ever seen a fit Shipley ?

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Allen & Shipley ahead of Bright on the bench is comical

Bright isn’t fit you weapon

 

[mark82]

Jamie Paterson signed one day, played the next. Has Bright been injured again?

 

[steve cooper]

Would be a laugh if we are playing 2 at the back and Dabo in DCM

 

[skybluegod]

Exactly. He also needs to earn a place on the bench, he's not going to walk into the team.

 

[shmmeee]

Jamie Paterson signed one day, played the next. Has Bright been injured again?

Dropped on his head as a child, still not recovered.

 

[better days]

Bright isn’t fit you weapon

Also not busting a gut to do so

 

[mark82]

4-4-1-1 or One of the RBs at CB?

 

[skybluegod]

Jamie Paterson signed one day, played the next. Has Bright been injured again?

Robins has said his fitness isn't at the standard.

Paterson has trained throughout pre-season. Bright was on holiday in Africa for a significant period before he signed and didn't arrive in the best shape.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Also not busting a gut to do so

Just need to get rid of him if that’s the case. Taking up valuable wages.

 

[Liquid Gold]

Bright can’t play he’s in Magaluf

 

[SBT]

You can’t just sign someone from SC East Bengal and then not even put them on the bench, insane levels of confidence from Robbings here.

 

[Gibbo]

Bright is the new Biamou / Jones. I will surprised if Bright does much for us.

 

[Jamesimus]

Brights forgot his shin pads, apparently he'll be back in time for the second half if Robins shouts him some bus fare money.
