Matchday 28 - Brighton and Hove Albion vs Nottingham Forest. Sunday 10th March kick Off: 2pm.

I wouldn’t be surprised if the big man fires Nuno if we lose to Luton next week and slip into the bottom three, might look for a new manager bounce in desperation.

That's exactly what I expect to happen. And it won't make a bit of difference.

 

[Irish Wolf]

I was hoping we would have fire in our bellies with the sense of injustice last week, a week's rest, against a team that arrived home from Europe in the early hours of Friday morning.

It's not the result; it's the performance that is really getting to me. From free scoring (even if the results weren't great) to struggling to find the net.

We're sinking.

 

[Dirk Furtull]

That wasn't a post reasoning why we lost today. It was purely about referees and decisions.

No, I know. Just ranting!

We dont miss Mangala though, all he ever did was pass backwards. The other midfielders can do that just as well.

I disagree numerous times he would win the ball back wiggle through a challenge and set us going forward he was one of the constant good performers in my eyes at the start of this season

 

[Des Walker Texas Ranger]

We are staring down the barrel of the same relegation gun as last season but this time without the connection between fans, manager and players which carried us to safety last campaign

We, the fans, are waiting for this set of players to inspire us but there’s a severe frost predicted to arrive in hell sooner than this lot look like doing so

No idea what was behind the team selection today but Nuno’s done himself no favours whatsoever

Worried. Very very worried.

Fair enough. Can't blame you. I did my rant further up

Feels a bit Leeds last season if we do. Big Sam?

 

[Any Time Now]

Mangala was the only player capable of carrying the ball out, you'd think Danilo would fill the gap but it seems not

 

[Major Oak Morgan]

It’s like a collective doom-porn wankfest on here. We lost 1:0 at Brighton and they barely had a chance. If the same happens next week then I’d join the jerk circle, but if feels a tad premature right now..

Lost a lot of faith in Nuno today, terrible line up with zero attacking threat. Having two 21year olds at centre back for a relegation battle is concerning, especially as it seems to be his first choice pairing.

If he picks a similar team next week we ll get turned over by Luton, we need to attack them from the off.

 

[Bobby The Brain]

my Overreactionometer™ has just topped out.

 

[UnFrustratedRed]

This. I genuinely think, they think they're too good to down, Nuno needs to give them a rocket up the arse.

And they don't give a flying f***

 

[Strummer]

Forest have spent 200m odd on players and are still rubbish.

Not a good look, that.

 

[Quntib Hollox]

Nuno out, abysmal stuff on display, no fight, get the players gone in the summer.

I get your frustration. Cooper went because he persisted in a defensive mindset when the owners thought he had the tools to be a bit more proactive.
Today the way we set up was not clear. We didn’t press as a group when it mattered and when we sat back in the first half we looked like conceding.
if we’re going down let’s just go for it and not die wondering.

Yes he'll be gone in this scenario

Current form doesn't suggest a turnaround in results does it.

We've no identity. Last season we knew the gameplan before every single game, sit deep which invites the opposition on but at the same time leaves their entire half for us to exploit with pace and direct passing, no more than 3 or 4 passes from our penalty box to an attempt on goal. Resulting in a heavy battering or a narrow victory.

Under Nuno and Coops in certain games this season we're neither here nor there. We keep possession better, create pretty little triangles in our own half and look far more technical than any period under Coops. But ... we are so easy to defend against. Theres no penetration or cutting edge, there's no variety. We now collect the ball and progress up the pitch until we're forced back again until we inevitably give it away by trying to slide a pass in behind the oppositions deep line (in complete contrast to last season). We have no space to work with, nor the quality to make something happen in the final third.

And thats before we factor in unforced errors and by far and away the worst performing team in the entire league for both defensive and attacking set pieces. We're rarely battered, always in games but ultimately lose.

The Big Man and Miltadis used to tell Coops they wanted us to play better, 4-2-3-1 and no more low block etc i hope they're enjoying what they're seeing because for me, we never had the quality nor depth to pull off the more advanced technical approach to games that Nuno is trying to implement.

Championship bound and Nuno won't be hanging around for any part of it.

(And if i see one more f***ing PR social media video i'll scream to the heavens)

 

[oxonred]

I’m wondering if it’s all the very poor decisions that have gone against, has just made the players think that they are just bound to be relegated, especially with the probable points deduction as well.

 

[Hector Salamanca]

I'm getting fed up moaning about decisions against Forest, even to my own ears it's starting to sound like bleating.

Yes there is an effort to f*ck Forest but we are making so many silly mistakes and showing no fight, I just can't get myself to argue for the club when they can't be bothered themselves.

Lacked anything resembling a decent side today. We looked devoid of quality and ideas. So flat.


Attitude on the pitch is now in the stands. Bit of an altercation at half time between fans as one lot were singing about the Championship and another lot taking them to task about that and they should be backing the team.
Not good.

You wouldn’t happen to have any of that ‘doom porn’ going spare would you mate?

The difference is somehow I knew last year we weren't getting relegated this year I have the total opposite feeling this f***ing points deduction isn't helping I only blame ourselves but the f***ing time it takes just ruins the season for the only people who's fault it certainly isn't the fans how hard can it be to come up with a f***ing number of points it really has ruined this season whoever in the club made the decision to say f*** it needs to answer to the fans in the stands
