Poor performance and a point is probably fair.
Re: Brighton Bawbags A Sat 2nd Oct KO 530pm
We got lucky. Brighton pissed all over us but couldn't finish. We couldn't even get started. Back to earth with a bang!

Re: Brighton Bawbags A Sat 2nd Oct KO 530pm
Pathetic performance and the biggest scandal about tonight is that our lot looked at the weather conditions and looked at Brighton’s work rate and just didn’t fancy it.
No shame in a point but massive shame for players hiding like cowards.

That could have been any of fifty games under Arteta
90 minutes of uneventful, slow paced, tedious shite
An utter snoozefest from start to finish

Dress it up as much as you like, we were crap and deserved to lose. Two 1-0 wins against cannon fodder and 3 first half goals against a dreadful first half spurs team and now this............ I'm underwhelmed.

How the fuck can that FAT CU,NT Billy Bunter still be reffing...Holy FUCK he looks like the Michelin man dressed in black!
Re: Brighton Bawbags A Sat 2nd Oct KO 530pm
Point gained tonight.
Really challenging conditions with horrible swirling wind and rain.
Could easily have been beaten and some horrible performances. Definitely take a point!

Decent point against a well organised side.
If Leno had been in the team we would have lost that.
10 points out of 12
Up to 9th in the league - encouraging

Re: Brighton Bawbags A Sat 2nd Oct KO 530pm
Down to earth with a bang however we didn't lose so i guess that is one thing, immaterial of the Sunday league hardmen, those conditions were horrendous at times and wont have helped but Arteta is still a deer in the headlights when it comes to making changes to affect a game. PEA was crap first half and should never have come out for the second, Pepe being brought on for anyone is never an answer either.
Generally everyone of them were off the pace today, misplaced passes, dwelling on the ball, reluctant to shoot (Partey being the acception and the only one who should actually not be allowed to ever), how a team can go from the performance in the first half against the Scum to that performance i do not know but it is not only Arteta who needs to look at himself, individually especially in the first 45mins there were some woeful performances especially considering it was almost the exact same team as last week.

Re: Brighton Bawbags A Sat 2nd Oct KO 530pm
The reality is we do not like teams coming hard at us, relentlessly shutting us down and closing the spaces. As Rodders said, we just don't fancy it....so we get loads of these half arsed, lazy, indifferent performances. We are actually flat track bullies....Redarmy wrote: ↑Sat Oct 02, 2021 6:20 pmtrue they deserve a draw...think we had better chances to win it....think they were over physical...too many passengers in our team tonight...cant do that against a team working like thatxisstential wrote: ↑Sat Oct 02, 2021 6:18 pmYou cannot begrudge them this...they have worked their bollocks off.

Re: Brighton Bawbags A Sat 2nd Oct KO 530pm
Im afraid this is the reality...we arent top draw any more...we havnt got the players ...we wont qualify for the CL.....thats where we are....im pleased we didnt loose
Re: Brighton Bawbags A Sat 2nd Oct KO 530pm
That was my thoughts .Lazy passing ,Lazy closing down.Only Ramsdale and Smith Rowe came out with any credit.The only reason the 2nd was slightly better then the first was that Brighton had run themselves into the ground. We should of had a pen though. As for Auba, I have been reading Simon Reeves book and he said he has never fully recovered his fitness after catching Malaria.I think Auba is the same as he looked out of it.rodders999 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 02, 2021 6:23 pmPathetic performance and the biggest scandal about tonight is that our lot looked at the weather conditions and looked at Brighton’s work rate and just didn’t fancy it.

Re: Brighton Bawbags A Sat 2nd Oct KO 530pm
Gabriel, Ramsdale and Smith-Rowe had good games and that's about it.
We tried to play out, but couldn't string more than a couple of passes together.
I am thinking that Partey could be a tad overrated.

Re: Brighton Bawbags A Sat 2nd Oct KO 530pm
And Pepe is shite. Sell him while he still may have some value. He isn't ever going to come good.
