[Bobby b]

Get Souza, mcatee and Robinson on now

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Bogle im losing patience with you lad.

 

[Not so Slim ane]

Hard to tell but looked like he headed the ball and it didn't hit bogle hand to me

 

[HarryHaslam]

Don’t half shoot ourselves in the foot, had chances to clear it before the cross.

 

[BangorBlade]

Fck VAR !!!

 

[originaltrueblade]

Referee is shite

 

[The Hobott]

Mcatee for Archer please

 

[FinBlade]

Entertainment init

We have come from deep depression to rollercoaster, it's a upgrade

 

[71Blade]

Hamers fault clear your lines that pen never happens

 

[shrubbery]

Two soft as fuck penalties but probably the correct decision on both. The ref couldn’t wait to give them both though which is quite surprising given how marginal they were. Bogle really poor on both occasions though. You can’t give a side like Brighton two freebies.

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

Will, WIll, just fuckin stood there! Anybody else hear that from Wilder?

 

[HarryHaslam]

Will, WIll, just fuckin stood there! Anybody else hear that from Wilder?

Think it was Bogle shouting that

 

[The Hecky Flecky Shake]

Having an absolute mare Bogle all over the place. RB/RWB is not the lads position, he’s a talent but needs to move further up.

 

[Toronto Blade]

Expecting much to beat Brighton with Norwood and Osborn in midfield all their goals straight through the middle

 

[71Blade]

Referee is shite

Shocking he looks out of his depth

 

[Bobby b]

Am I being a bladey blade here because I still think, with a couple of attacking subs, that there's still something in this game for us

 

[RWE]

Refs a fucking donut. Falling for every dive by Brighton players

 

[Toronto Blade]

How does Norwood stay on the pitch

 

[Pittsburg Blade]

Brighton will win the trophy…

 

[sheff_blade90]

2 soft penalties for Brighton (which for latter ive always said handball should only be punished if its deliberate) & then they try to find a reason to rule out our 2 goals. you could start to think someone on VAR, doesnt want us in the 5th round

 

[fifty shades of blade]

Ref is shite, no idea, bet he's never kicked a ball

 

[jono_t2000]

pretty sure this ref has a Brighton shirt on underneath his ref kit

 

[Belvedere Blade]

Very one sided so far this afternoon the ref. RUBBISH

 

[Not so Slim ane]

All over.... keeper looked very slow getting down to that shot

 

[fifty shades of blade]

If that was wes letting that go in there'd be people on here going nuts!

 

[Bobby b]

Wtf do we constantly keep shooting ourselves in the foot, we're always switching off when we're defending, we've given this game to Brighton without the gifts this would have been close

 

[Hull Blade]

McBurnie getting some pelters for not tracking back.. What? Never!

 

[71Blade]

That was awful marking for the 4th players just stood that was pathetic work so hard to get back into the game and just stand watching. Garbage

 

[CornwallBlade]

Don’t half shoot ourselves in the foot, had chances to clear it before the cross.

This, dicking around when should have been cleared away

 

[XADE]

If that was wes letting that go in there'd be people on here going nuts!

Amazing strike, he had no chance whatsoever.

The defending however was ABSOLUTELY atrocious yet again, we don't close anything down AT ALL.
