[Sandgroper Skybluel]

The lads have showed some bollocks that half the Sky blue army sound brilliant aswell keep throwing that second ball on when the lads need a rest! Get out of this with a draw and i fancy us at home against the smoggys. PUSB

Well battled . Proud of them so far

I'm off to meditate during half time! Keep the faith!

Defended really well

Need to do something at the other end now. Just to take pressure off the defence.

If we could just gets some pockets of possession for a while, it would greatly help.

This reminds me so much of the Luton v Derby game, where Derby pummelled them and pummeled them and really should have got at least a draw, but Luton hung on for the win.

I took think maybe hooking Simms for BTA could be a good option.

Simms is actually winning a bit of ball in the air, but not offering too much else.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

I imagine he would be able to appear again until Wembley

You think we’ll get there?

 

[BackRoomRummermill]

this is a character building performance for sure -

 

[Terry_dactyl]

He clearly made contact. Yes it was minimal but was still contact. You’d be fuming if it happened to us and the player didn’t get a red card

Well, I can’t see any contact. Looks to me like yer man clearly trips his own feet.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Binks is a walking red card himself now and we have nobody to bring on.

 

[skyblue025]

Long way to go yet but defended pretty well so far. That said I have little confidence with our back 5 and their ability not to gift them a goal at some stage. Need plenty of shithousery second half

 

[Noble]

A decent defensive effort from a team that is absolutely garbage defensively. Particularly happy for Sheaf who is putting in a shift so far.
Worst case, there is some players we won't have to watch in sky blue for much longer.

 

[Lionelr]

it’s a real shame Bassette is injured, well suited to this game. Ball in behind, getting himself into tustles and taking away the team element and just going for it… real shame

 

[Evo1883]

Can you tell me what law was broken? The game isn’t non contact. Not all contact is a foul. This really isn’t hard. There was no intention. Dasilva wasn’t reckless or dangerous. He’s entitled to his position on the pitch.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

For the red card, did the lino on that side give it?

It's clearly their player kicking his own foot and going down.

Presume down the ear piece definite red is the call from the lino
Think he could have spoken
Wouldn’t have been given the other way absolutely no chance

 

[jordan210]

The red is a foot to knee. No way you can throw your knee to deliberately trip. Was a clash of legs that’s it

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Well, I can’t see any contact. Looks to me like yer man clearly trips his own feet.

How is it clear he trips over his own feet. He trips over his own feet because Da Silva clips his heels with his knee

 

[Grendel]

Mate, we get you don't like Dasilva.

It’s nothing to do with that - I don’t know what he was trying to do

 

[Evo1883]

You think we’ll get there?

Can't rule anything out with us

 

[Macca]

It sounds negative but just keep the score down if we are to lose and go for it next week

 

[Snaily]

No we've been done by our high line and da silva not concentrating

Kitching
Bidwell
Sheaf
Rudoni
Wright
Grimes

battling really well

+Lati

Need Simms to step up and Binks to start using his head

 

[Terry_dactyl]

He didn’t.

Ok. He did.
Bugger.

What was the offence

 

[Terry_dactyl]

How is it clear he trips over his own feet. He trips over his own feet because Da Silva clips his heels with his knee

Just seen it again properly…Dasilvas knee clips his foot.

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Well, I can’t see any contact. Looks to me like yer man clearly trips his own feet.

And me

 

[skyblueiom]

Jeez sky have shown several times that his knee clipped his ankle. And yet still people saying there was no contact. Move on ffs

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Can't rule anything out with us

True

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

How is it clear he trips over his own feet. He trips over his own feet because Da Silva clips his heels with his knee

Right leg on to his left trips himself up

 

[Evo1883]

What was the offence

Hes fouled him mate , literally ran behind him and has clipped his foot

 

[TomRad85]

Well , il take that

Just 45 to go

More like 60 with this raging nonce on the whistle.

 

[Terry_dactyl]

He clearly made contact. Yes it was minimal but was still contact. You’d be fuming if it happened to us and the player didn’t get a red card

Yep. There is contact.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Jeez sky have shown several times that his knee clipped his ankle. And yet still people saying there was no contact. Move on ffs

Some are beyond saving.

 

[SkyBlue_Bear83]

Ex Swansea manager saying not a red card

 

[Joy Division]

I've seen that replay back so many times now. His knee touches his foot but no way near a foul, Luton player was waiting for any kind of contact to go down

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Right leg on to his left trips himself up

No Peter Da Silva clips him with his knee

Simms is playing well. On his own against 2 big centre halves

 

[Terry_dactyl]

And me

Sorry mate, definitely a bit of contact. Nothing deliberate but knee to his boot.

 

[Balli001]

It’s nothing to do with that - I don’t know what he was trying to do

Well he was getting back in to position and barely clipped their guy.

 

[Evo1883]

Right leg on to his left trips himself up

Tripped himself up
