Success for us is staying in the Premier League. As it is regarded for anyone below the top 10

I was always under the impression that Howe hated us

Hinting at dressing room unrest?

Because most of that "possession" was us passing along the back four, passing to the midfield for them to pass back to the back four. They dominated us, Brighton.

But is it really that much of a stretch though? Ex player, needs to re-build his reputation after a bit of a sticky patch? Even on a short term deal until the end of the season, performance based contract with caveats that he gets them promoted. Stranger things have happened.

We should be worried. Brighton are a team renowned for having a soft under belly but they completely dominated us in that game. Our only league victory since January 4th was against one of the worst teams ever to grace the division, yet we didn't even look that comfortable in that match. Next up in the league is Burnley. A team you really don't want to play if you are having problems. The game against them last year here was terrible.

If we want Howe, better get in quick before the blue few do.

Been one of my favourite players over the last few years, but sadly he doesn't bring anything to the team anymore. Not sure if it's the system we play and whether he would be better suited to a different style, but it seems a parting off the ways will occur. Got to hope that the recruitment team have got a replacement lined up, as I don't think Vokins is going to make it here.

Jackett down the road has just been sacked for a lot less than Ralph

Out thought by Graham Potter. Take a bow Ralph

Llanana has obviously been saving up this performance for this match. Hardly plays normally, but looks like he will last the 90 in this one.

We aren't going to break them down now

Another fuckin needless free kick given away

We give away far too many stupid fouls.

Not sure if Tella is giving us much threat

Is it me or are Brighton pinching an obscene amount of extra yards when taking throw ins??

I don't think any of those three will get anywhere near that total. Like a lot have said, we will be fine this season, it's next season we need to be concerned about.

George Lawrence was one of my favourite players in my early Dell days. Loved the fact that he didn't know what he was going to do next, let alone opposition players.

PEH has probably been telling him how amazing it is at Spuds

Kerry Dixon and David Speedie

That's the stark reality for at least half the teams in the league. Just being slightly better than the bottom three.

For the money spent on Gunn at the time, we certainly could have dome a lot better if we did our homework better.

We have now conceded 49 goals, only West Brom have shipped more. That's a worrying statistic

Yes,but how many of those teams faced City after they were beaten by Man Utd? There was always going to be a reaction after that game.

Not sure there is much between either of them. It seemed to me that the back four were a little more confident with Forster though
