Re: Should Vydra start?

I totally agree with Rileybobs that the substitutions didn’t improve us yesterday until the move which brought us the goal.

Re: RATE THE REF - Michael Oliver v Brighton

This, sort of, exemplifies what I love about football. I read MACCAs comments and thought they are about right but a little harsh on the scoring side,then I saw CTs. I wonder how long have he and Michael Oliver been bosom buddies!!!!!!? It’s how I saw the performance from my position in the ground....

Re: Brighton v Burnley - Player Ratings

Trust me, the player ratings turned into a farce a long time ago, when you said that someone's ratings would be discounted as you believed that person didn't attend the game in person, and only those watching in person could add their ratings. How on earth do you know who attended in person, and wh...

Good luck! At least the late equalizer has hopefully made the journey back more bearable. And i hope that is the longest journey of the season. Always a better journey home after that.
