[Albion] Brentford vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Washie]

Even in the unlikely event that we turn this around I want Fh gone now. There is something very very off with this squad now.

Like when we had that great run? Was there an issue then?

 

[METALMICKY]

Season busted. Really wished I'd got ticket for Ghost at the O2 tonight as need a little uplifting singalong!

 

[eastterracemike]

This!

This in spades

 

[Washie]

Season ended with the capitulation against Villa

Season ended when Dunk came back.

 

[Weststander]

When did we become so easy to score against?

Stamford Bridge.

We need our very best defenders and DM’ers, to make it all work.

 

[Albion my Albion]

Holy carp.

Yes, there is something fishy about Fabs. Is it possible he's too young?

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

We look rudderless. Immature. Desperate for leaders even with Welbeck and Dunk on the pitch. Our captain has had it. No real leaders. No adults.
Kids managing kids.

That's a fair summing up of this 'transition' season. Utterly unstructured shambles

 

[maltaseagull]

Just need Welbz to get injured and we have no strikers available until the final 2 matches

We don't use them properly anyway.
Just play 3.7.0

 

[South Stand Bonfire]

Tomorrow, thankfully. If it were today my superstitious self would be convinced we'd lose.

Happy Birthday for tomorrow then. Lose??! Dunk up front to do "a Virgo" for the next three matches?!

 

[WhingForPresident]

I think we might need a reaction guys.

 

[Sarisbury Seagull]

If we play like this against Potter’s lot next week it will be embarrassing.

Yep. He’s in a different league to Hurzeler as a manager.

I can’t believe how bad we are now. This appointment stinks of arrogance as a club, he’s so far out of depth

 

[bhafc99]

Off the fence and firmly in the FH out camp now. He does not inspire in any way

Have to say, because I’m watching on TV not live, it was notable that when Pedro was sent off, coverage cut to the Brighton bench. Two assistant managers leaning forward together having an animated prolonged conversation, presumably about what strategies and formations to switch to now. Fab sat between them, leaning back in total silence, staring blankly into space. Not a good look.

 

[Mike Small]

Pedro sent off

Can’t believe Fab told him to do that

He's shown enough petulance this season and could have got sent off before. Our management team haven't the gravitas to spot that.

 

[Guinness Boy]

Season ended when Dunk came back.

And Veltman got injured

 

[Bodian]

So they haven't won at home in their last 8 games.

We all know how this pans out.

Lump on a home win.

Dr Brighton has indeed been to see the patient.

 

[birthofanorange]

What made you think that?

Because we are/were capable of it.

 

[Justice]

Have to say, because I’m watching on TV not live, it was notable that when Pedro was sent off, coverage cut to the Brighton bench. Two assistant managers leaning forward together having an animated prolonged conversation, presumably about what strategies and formations to switch for now. Fab sat between them, leaning back in total silence, staring blankly into space. Not a good look.

Hopefully he knows he’s off

 

[Solid at the back]

Even in the unlikely event that we turn this around I want Fh gone now. There is something very very off with this squad now.

I agree, players look unhappy, miserable and don't want to be out there. Something has gone on and it's clear his lost the dressing room. These guys have no respect for him.

Dunk should retire after this game.

 

[Weststander]

Is the Mezzanine Fanzone open for a beam back?

 

[Flounce]

Like when we had that great run? Was there an issue then?

We have looked rudderless since the Forest defeat in the cup. I have not called for a manager’s head since the latter days of CH, this is getting as bad as then imo. The body language and desire has been dreadful since the Forest cup game.
