The Burnley keeper was booked after 31 minutes last night. Imagine if Joe Hart had been booked after two hat amount of time when we played them, the game would have been a much more enjoyable watch. The ref let him get away with time wasting all game, they always seem to let the keepers off. We won it in a satisfying way though in the end, I wouldn’t change that.
Basically if the Brighton goalie time wastes badly tonight, I bet the ref doesn’t book him until well into the second half. The officials are so inconsistent.
We the crowd need to get on his back if he is bad tonight. If he is wasting time the crowd letting the ref know early on can sometime force the players and sideline staff to react, which then puts the ref under pressure to do something to stop it.
Just hope we do the bizz, I know Brighton are in trouble, but watching a lot of football they have been dragged into this, through a time when they have struggled to find the top corner, and their opponents have scrambled it in. Hopefully they will be as open as they where when they lost at home 5-0 though going down to 10 didn’t help.
Hopefully Son will have his scoring boots on, or anyone. The trouble is with football the unexpected happens, before their really poor run they defended well, when we played City in CL we scored harder chances than the ones we missed on Saturday
