You must have an on/off switch surely?

Not sure how Wood gets in ahead of Edwards other than he's another of Russell's mates from a previous club.

Probably not for 90 minutes especially when we go 2 nil up 🙂

Wood to be sent off for continually grappling with Jackson.

Tell this to Brighton and Bournemouth - or does it only apply to us?

Out of those available (and don't include ABK) who would you select?

So there were multiple correct outcomes then?

Man Utd 3-0 up and even Rashford has scored two goals - amazing what a new manager can do 🙂

Maybe time to try the one that most successful teams use then - or is that too obvious or not left field enough for clever Russell who is determined to prove he can reinvent football for clubs outside the top ten - not working is it?

Would have liked to see him in a double pivot with Downes as I think we'd have seen the best of him. Unfortunately RM is not one to try different formations and I don't think he's ever experimented with 4-2-3-1 which the vast majority of the best teams play. Russell knows better I guess.

Not sure it matters - VAR would have checked and should have made the same decision as we suffered on Friday. Webb really needs to be looking at these inconsistencies and doing something about them.

Seems likely we'll be all but relegated by late Jan so if big offers come in from clubs desperate to steal these two away SR might decide to sell.

Many like me are angry that Arsenal score against us with an offside player clearly impacting on Ramsdale's decision making and it is given yet ours is ruled out for something similar. Different rules for different teams seems to be at play.

Also, they kicked Tyler from pillar to post but he always tried to stay on his feet unlike their players. Same old Brighton for me.

Maybe but I think Brighton have plenty of players who throw themselves down holding their face at the first opportunity - the foreigners mainly and they were doing it at every opportunity last night. Downes was robust but did nothing major to warrant a second yellow card.

Yeah, Arsenal actually scored a goal (Martinelli I think)against us when one of their players was offside and would have impacted on Ramsdale's decision making but of course that was allowed.

Not me.

Come on, give us a little credit for the second half improvement - it wasn't on Brighton being poor, we stepped up our game as we needed to do after such a poor opening 45 minutes.

Dibling again showing he's going to be one hell of a player - imagine him in a couple of year's time.

Whether Armstrong was there or sat at home in his living room he did not impact on their keeper and the goal should have stood. I wonder if that gets ruled out if scored by an Arsenal or Liverpool - I somehow doubt it.

Again we saw that this team is not as bad as Russell is making them look. We gave the ball away numerous times by trying to be too cute. We don't need to do it and we are not good enough to do it nor is Martin smart enough to coach it. Keep it simpler and hit more long balls and the likes of Dibling and Fernandes will give opponents a lot more to think about.

Plucky point. Robbed by fucking VAR.

Sorry but the fucking game has gone - it's a nonsense now.

Small point but sums up the coaching of this club - we win a free kick on the right midway in Brighton's half, Fernandes and Manning stand over it and Fernandes takes it. What the fuck is the point of our right back standing next to him!!!!!!
