    Because its not the first time we have played anaemic boring football. If we played well but lost I would feel better, but that isn't the case. There is no impetus or speed, the link up play is poor, crossing that is so so poor, bad running by players of the ball. Our strategy seems to be we might score if we are very very lucky but you won't, but with our goalie in bad form that hardly happens

    Like watching a beige man in a beige house in a beige room wondering if a switch to magnolia isn't a bit risqué. Utter boredom.

    Really, really poor performance. Went 1-0 up and did absolutely nothing after that. Really bad.

    Every single pass is telegraphed, semaphored, hung up on banners and announced in church. We never seem to do anything unexpected.

    The good thing about watching this from Australia is that I can fall straight to sleep before the game has even finished.

    So bored. The last 10 minutes were a shambles, instead of going for it we just faffed about. Poor.

    I agree it's not been great, but still doesn't justify people going over the top with statements.

    The moment Brighton equalised the whinging started.

    File that under ‘meh’.

    We miss Mario’s dynamism so much from midfield. I still think Gabbi has the most boring job in football.

    Still it’s an away point.

    Two points dropped. Threw away by dropping deep and defending a 1-0 lead which isn't possible with Forster in goal sadly. We had the indicative and simply handed back to them.
    Very sad and a real opportunity thrown away

    And so it continues. Why do we not get buoyed by scoring? He must encourage us to sit back, as we go into our shell.

    Disappointed. We have the quality to beat these sort of teams but are so so cautious and unadventurous.

    We have no pattern or purpose to our attacking play, it would be nice to see us attempt to get to the byline at least.
