Farke not winning Manager of the month despite winning 5 on the trot explained by (cough) George Burley. George Burley chairs the Sky Bet Manager of the Month judging panel. He said: “Eleven goals scored and only three conceded in five demanding matches earned the Blades thirteen points in the month. “This moved them into an automatic promotion spot and dealt a blow to close rivals WBA and Middlesbrough at a very important time in the season.”
Glad Farke didn't get it we went a bit **** last time . The curse hit Vrancic Pukki and Buendia . Injured , 5 games without a goal and suspension in that order .
Quite honestly, I'm not worried about DF not getting MotM etc, as I think Pukki's and Aarons victories were more significant, especially the latter, as he was up against Wilson at Derby, who is on loan from Liverpool.
It would be terrible if the Sheffield United coach won Manager of the season and failed to get promoted
Looking at Brighton's remaining fixtures, Wolves (A), Spurs (A), Newcastle (H), Arsenal (A), Man City (H), I think we might be about to find out what would have happened if Neil Adams wasn't appointed.
I have a Brighton fan colleague that has been gloating all season. Recently he has been criticising Hootons negative subs and tactics when they go behind .

Piss poor game at Bramall Lane. Another useless ref. Andy Madley red cards a Forest player when missing worse tackles and hand balls. Still 0-0,but ref doing his best for the Blades.
