[Brighton Sky Blue]

Stick a cone in goal, would be better than Collins

Tough call between the cone and Wilson

If we were top you'd think differently

Nah fuck that. What’s the point of watching us if you don’t want to enjoy it?

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Any truth in the rumors Ben Wilson is not fit?

I dont think they were as bad to watch as everybody is saying , they defend incredibly well , work hard and close down in pairs sometimes 3 players , do the dark arts well and have scored pretty much the same amount of goals as us .


They are basically US with a great defence

 

[skybluecam]

Look at what we've just watched??? And they're top of the league??? The biggest, anti-football team we've played this season are topping the league. How is that not a shit quality league?

The average quality of players Burnley have is far above ours. Realistically they should be nailed on for autos and they aren’t. Their negativity is actually costing them imo, should be well clear along with Leeds.

It would make sense

Thought we got in behind them quite often, the record is superb but today I wasn’t impressed. The only team all season I’ve been impressed by was Leeds

 

[clint van damme]

Such impressive well reasoned debating skills .

Got to agree with the troll account mate, would have Wilson over Collins personally.
Though both are a massive downgrade on Dovin.

With shit quality officials who encourage it.

 

[Tommo1993]

I’d 100% rather play like Leeds or Sheff U, but absolutely no one here grumbles if that style earned us promotion. No one.

Nope he's absolutely fine

Has been for weeks

That is the issue. Both so inferior to Dovin.

Well shit. I get the idea of Brad due to the high line and am trying not to crucify him as he’ll know himself but hope Wilson comes in. For all his faults I can’t see him making the two mistakes.

If we weren’t in the playoff hunt and on the beaches I’d play Bell

But in terms of clear chances we generally didn't create much .. even our goal was offside .. we did match them today and probably a draw was fair but overall teams Have good and bad days and each game is different, they are consistently solid

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Brad Collins is the reason we lost this game, hope he never plays again.

Thought Bobby and da Silva were good

must win Wednesday

Gosh I’d hate to play in a team or work in a team that blames one person for everything
He was mostly to blame for the second goal

To be fair if we did manage to go up, we’ve all just got a taste of how we’d have to play.

Just one of them,

Consistency is why Leeds aren’t top I suppose. Helps also when you don’t have a lunatic in goal.

Don’t think Brad was completely to blame, I don’t know how Kitching has managed to escape the criticism. He was awful today and partly to blame for the second

 

[chiefdave]

he seems to be in training all the time so not sure what could be up, that lasts for months, that he's ok to train but can't possibly play a game.

 

[fernandopartridge]

You actually want Collins playing hahahahhahaa fuck me

Let's be honest Wilson playing in a team with a high line would also likely be a disaster waiting to happen

60:40 for me Collins Kitching

 

[David O'Day]

Just seen the Wright goal, and their player dies slide and block it. Like the dippers goal Wednesday

For me kitching was always looking to go back to Collins, Collins was too in his face and should have held on the 6 yard line .. its Collins fault for me

 

[Ccfc_Addy]

I am fucking fuming, this is the most rattled I've been by a defeat in a long time.

Scott Parker is an utter fucking disgrace and his twat team are built in his image. The referee completely bottled it, he let both Burnley and Parker (who spent most of the game on the touchline and repeatedly gave team talks when the ball went out in front of the dugouts) get away with murder. The linesman on my side missed both Thomas getting shoved into the hoardings and Sakamoto getting elbowed off the ball when both happened right in front of him.

I think we generally played well - was especially happy for JDS who had another solid game - but two disastrous goals have cost us. I was rooting for Collins to put some demons to bed but it's beyond any kind of reasonable doubt that he simply isn't up to it and that he is going to cost us goals.

Who cares, he can’t play again for us this season

I get it, but when he turned and say Brad he’s needs to move out the way or lump it. Standing there blocks every choice

 

[Nick]

Should have kidnapped marosi.

Kitching was about to head the ball back to the box but saw his keeper rushing out, assumed the keeper would clear it just for the keeper to hesitate himself.

I mean we could drop the line?

Looks like he does header it which takes it away. Could be wrong though. Even so don’t players talk to each other. Why wouldn’t Collins shout what he was doing

 

[Tommo1993]

It is quite baffling how Collins gets the nod after the horror show at Pompey and Wilson was thought as good enough to pick up a new contract.

He’s not expecting Collins to be where he is and rightly so. It’s on Collins to communicate with his defence-his fault all day.

We’ve got an up and coming keeper in bell that’s highly rated, stick him in instead of Collins if Wilson isn’t fit

Well look , mistakes keep happing with Collins in goal so there's that

 

[SkyBlueAussie]

End of the day, whoever we have in goal, then we have to get behind.
No point us scoring own goals, by undermining their confidence on here.
