[Brighton Sky Blue]

Just seen the replay, he's more offside than Wright was at Wembley.

Leeds get 2 chalked off for being yards onside yet that one is allowed to stand?

You typed it. Not sure you understand what you typed? You cannot seriously have been watching that thinking we lacked desire and urgency?

Our finishing was poor, sure. But that’s a quality / composure thing. Our approach play was great and we were pushing hard.

Really wasn't great, I bet if we watched it back and checked how many forward passes Vs backwards passees we did the backward ones would out number the coward ones comftably.

 

[Nick]

How on earth are they saying DaSilva played him on?

 

[Jamesimus]

Why don’t we try and see out games like we used to?

This is a fair point. We were doing this at first in every game under Frank. Wasn’t always a great watch but I liked it!

 

[clint van damme]

Well no he wouldn’t have come on eithet
You think sheaf was injured but didn’t get any treatment
Grimes and sheaf and Rudoni were excellent
Mve should have done better with his chances and wright
We should have won but we are 3 points clear with 4 games to play
What are people expecting bloody mad you lot are

I never said Sheaf was injured, I said he was fucked which he clearly was.
Defending keeping on a player whose just returned from a long term injury and had took a clattering is a strange stance.

If he's out again because we left him on the pitch when he was a liability, that's mad, it's absolutely barking.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Why don’t we try and see out games like we used to?

Binks for Sheaf on 75 and go 5-4-1 and shut it down (like at Blackburn)

We were better than them but they did keep getting chances

Great shout
I didn’t think we were lacking energy but just to break things up would have probably been good
Just poor to let the guy get a shot off and not block or save it

 

[Matt smith]

Jack Rudoni was superb I have to say

 

[Nick]

And yeah, clear Penalty for that on Sheaf as well.

 

[David O'Day]

Who else could it be?

he moved to Canada though didn't he?

 

[Marty]

Could have gone into WBA with the pressure off and teams like Middlesbrough knowing they needed 3 points to keep up. WBA now come knowing they can stifle us and try to catch us on the break, a draw is a good result for them now, and the others will be breathing down our necks.

Because scoring a second kills the game in a way that hanging on defending doesn’t.

 

[HungarySkyBlue]

Who else could it be?

My name ain't Kieran , I do know who you're talking about, can send you a selfie of us together if you want, he lives about 35km away.

 

[Gynnsthetonic]

We were so in control of the game, upsetting not to of seen it out. Just not clinical enough

 

[Shannerz]

You typed it. Not sure you understand what you typed? You cannot seriously have been watching that thinking we lacked desire and urgency?

Agreed. No issue with the performance other than the inability to actually put the thing in the net.

 

[Jamesimus]

That would be a common occurrence in football.

I think you’d be surprised if you managed to note how many chances we created / how many shots on target we had in that game…

 

[Rodders1]

Played pretty well tonight. Made some many chances, just not clicking but trying to remain optimistic despite the really frustrating equaliser.

Just one of those games where where we were never going to score without a jammy deflection. Same for Hull (who were toothless).

Rudoni quality.

 

[bigfatronssba]

Well we knew we wouldn't do this the easy way. Still completely in our hands. Win the two remaining home games and we'll be fine

 

[letsallsingtogether]

Frustrating. Chances enough to bury Hull. But really no excuse for Dasilva to be miles out of position and even worse a feeble attempt to tackle (Bidwell would have slid in easily) and then keeper beaten at his near post so easily. Collin's has cost us now and Wilson I hope is fit.
A real annoyance. 2 points dropped.

Do you really believe what you have written.
Chill

 

[David O'Day]

Why are you getting wound up over one person's comments on a fucking football forum , "you walloper".

okay Kieran, you're drunk

He was the one driving us forward
That’s how you get fit
He’s the captain
Why take him off

 

[Jamesimus]

Agreed. No issue with the performance other than the inability to actually put the thing in the net.

Yep. It’s exactly that. Don’t mind criticism, but when people try and say it’s about effort or application I think they’re watching something else or just stupid.

 

[Tommo1993]

I personally don’t think this team can stomach this sort of pressure.

 

[HungarySkyBlue]

That would be a common occurrence in football.

Only 1 stat matters and were shit at making that one.

And if we beat them?
with the 12th man we play with

 

[shmmeee]

I personally don’t think this team can stomach this sort of pressure.

I just think the defence isn’t good enough really.

 

[shepardo01]

You probably are, may as well blame the keeper for theirs as well. Huge deflection.

Not the deflection part of it. Some keepers save with the trailing leg, some don't.

Starting position.

Higher up - sweeps up and clears. No reason for him not to be able to do that.
(As with Dasilva) He wasn't awake - anticipating a long ball.
The ball bounced on the corner of the D and 18yard box

 

[Macca]

Just need to avoid defeat against Baggies on Friday and I don't they are beating us at the CBS

 

[HungarySkyBlue]

okay Kieran, you're drunk

Okay David.

 

[HungarySkyBlue]

Just need to avoid defeat against Baggies on Friday and I don't they are beating us at the CBS

They will walk all over us, jds has no chance.

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

I know this is a worn out phrase but if I was told in October we would be in this position I would have never have believed it, well done to the whole team and FL

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

Stinks of a last minute equaliser with all our missed chances

God dammit your predictions are right again.

 

[quinn1971]

such another soft goal, long ball over our left back, wev‘e been caught out with that all season, surely da silva isn’t coached to defend like that, go Again Friday, at least we’ll all sleep better than kasey

 

[HungarySkyBlue]

I just think the defence isn’t good enough really.

3/4 positions are.

 

[clint van damme]

He was the one driving us forward
That’s how you get fit
He’s the captain
Why take him off

He wasn't driving us forward after an hour, he was a liability
That's not a dig at Sheaf, he was great for an hour but he's been out for a long time and he'd put a shift in.
And you don't get fit by over doing it. He should have been taken off. You're literally the only one who can't see it.

 

[Nick]

I know this is a worn out phrase but if I was told in October we would be in this position I would have never have believed it, well done to the whole team and FL

Well yeah I never expected it where we were but it's been in our hands to lose Top 6...
