Bryson, Russell and Hughes starting the game would probably have won us a point and boosted morale and confidence. Dont kid yourself. We just lost to the team with the best home record in all 4 divisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm almost surprised it isn't higher than that. We seemed to have longish periods of possession which created very little. We seemed collectively to lack 3 basic things. ... - vision/intelligence. There were occasions where we had players moving forward into space but passes only seemed to be made in the direction our players were facing. - movement. Where have mcclarens trademark 3rd man runs gone? Now player A passes to player B then stands still as player B knocks it back first time. Achieving nothing. Ince and Christie do this a lot. - tactics that suit the players. Who had told de sart that knocking long balls into channels was going to end well? Difficult to form a view as to how good Brighton were. They held us off sooo easily and once they'd walked through our central defence a couple of times just seemed to p*** about. I've seen us lose there a few times but last night was by far the most dispiriting in terms of performance , Our bench didn't seem that animated. Perhaps they've thrown the towel in?

Angry Ram Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Really pee'd off with last night... Not so much with the result and performance, I could see that coming. They were better than us in every department, to be honest I really enjoyed watching their movement and pace.. It was simply just good football, played by good players who knew what they were doing. The reason for my frustration was just how far we have slipped. Who of us would have thought BHA would reach the Premier League before DCFC when we watch us take them apart in the play offs. Football is cyclical, I know that, but when it is self inflicted the frustration grows. I know people on here cling to Morris like he is some sort of saviour and being local and having money means by default you will be a super chairman.. Sorry but he has made some massive errors, I could ramble on about his mistakes but they are well documented. What a complete and utter shambles his reign has been. I read a lot about we will do in the summer, clear outs etc.. Build a team around this player, that player.. Get Martin back everything will be okay. Bryson will turn the clock back and everything will be as it was. Sorry, reality check our problems are now deeper than that. Take a step back and hand on heart what morsel of hope makes you think that our management team and I include playing and board, have the ability to perform the major surgery that this team needs. We have moved past minor surgery that was initially needed, we are way passed that. Have we seen any glimmer of hope on the recruitment front? Do we trust these people who identify talent to actually do that. SMC and his contacts for loan players? De Sart Ffs. Even if a miracle of biblical proportions happens in the summer and we get these 6 or 7 players in, do we lose the small amount of quality that we do have now to fund that? Hughes and Ince may well have to be sold to balance the books. Morris is just not going to throw mega money at it.. I know Some think I am a bit negative about the club, those who know me will know I am really not.. I am frustrated big time.. It's not entitlement, that's bollx... I have seen the highest of the highs and the lowest of the lows with our club. I know what we are and what we will be going forward... We were within touching distance of a period of success, success for us is playing in the top league and competing against the best in this country.. Egos and really, really poor decisions have cocked that up.. Root cause... I'm sorry but Morris has to take his share of the blame.. The apathy in the ground last night was shocking.. No real expection of anything just flat nothingness.. people I see consistently at away games, die hard supporters of our club.. Positive people who always hope, just looked beaten.. Next season do we really think we will be at the races.. Massive changes all of a sudden bed in and play like a team? I have met Sam Rush and I know the apathy will be ringing alarm bells in the boardroom.. Clough went because of dwindling crowd numbers... I don't know how season ticket sales are going but you could see lots of empty seats appearing. 30k against Barnsley, not a chance. Count the season tickets but lots did not go.. Bring on the rugby... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baird should never be anything more than a back up. Pearce cannot play without Keogh.. (all the keogh has a fault a game crew) de sart is not a CDM no ball retainer again. Bent is a luxury not a lone striker needs a quick change at half time.. Hughes to control the ball bryson the runner/ niggler mighf as well take a chance with Bennett seasons over Baird is so much better than Christie and that run this season showed that. Who'd have thought that a footballing brain is worth more than bulging muscles and pace?! Same story last night - players too scared to try anything other than the safe option so we pass it around the back until Pearce kicks it straight over Bents head and out of a goal kick. All possession with not nearly enough efforts on target - same as the last 2 months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IlsonDerby Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Also the fact their 36year old right back was making us look lethargic gives me great hope Baird has another season in him if he looks after himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A red...Cairanne...from M & S, £10 from M & S second half. The red is superb and should pretty much obliterate that performance from all of my memory cells pretty much for ever. Me, tomorrow: Me (circa 9 am tomorrow): "Hey! How did we do against Brighton last night lads?" Did it work? By the way we won 4-3, came back from 3-0 down with 2 goals in extra time the second of which was with the last kick of the game. Probably go down as the greatest Championship match of all-time. Heroes, all of them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
