Not seen the incident, but a fun fact - "winning the ball" does not give you carte blanche to have done whatever the fuck you want in the process of doing so

Fun fact. A clean tackle is not a foul.

 

[Pintor75]

I'd have taken the point at the start tbh, on to Bournemouth

True. In this case two players went for the same ball, one got it, one fell over, free kick to the diver. Premier Diving League

 

[shorehamview]

I’ll take that, had a feeling we’d lose today and their early goal didn’t help my apprehension. Decent enough away point against a good side.

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Fun fact....WE'RE 19TH

 

[CambridgeshireBlade]

Two things today that have pissed me off that I can't really complain about:
Us only getting a point
the wife has made dinner in the slow cooker

 

[1973Blade]

Awful first 30 minutes, a lot better after that.

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Two games unbeaten.

 

[Thrice]

Well-deserved point in the end. Red card obviously helped, but 2nd half was much better.

Bogle may not be a great defender, but he was instrumental in attack today. Thought he had a great game.

 

[Snowflake]

Why can't we play against 10 men every week?

We rarely win against 10

Is a slow cooker when remedial class have home economics?

No pal it's basically hot water with whatever is about to go off in the cupboards chucked in.

The slow cooker at my school was naiive bless her, used to do anything for a pack of chewits

 

[WestYorksBlade]

Maybe all the knobhead pundits will be forced to now accept that we’re not worse than Burnley, but our manager isn’t a popular Man City legend so fat chance

 

[jono_t2000]

Jaoa Pedro was obviously sent on with the instruction to go down for everything and try and get one of ours sent off.

Diving c**t

 

[HOT CURRIE 10]

Only 1 point against 10 men.

They bring someone on to shithouse at (checks notes) half time when winning and we'd had zero shots on target?

 

[Chimpan-A]

I think OG is actually our leading scorer now.

OG OG OG oi oi oi!!

 

[HOT CURRIE 10]

Nice one Blades,well done to the great travelling support,respect.

 

[Hillsboro Blade]

My question is, why can’t we have this attacking intent from minute one? We’re not great defensively, the best defence is attack? Used to really annoy me with Warnock away from home in his Premier League Autograph hunting season, Hecky is even worse. For gods sake Hecky use today as an example.

Sorry clarify... brought on, then after red card went down for everything rolling around like a sausage trying to get a card produced

I think they tried the first few minutes, but Brighton just took control of the game and there isn't a lot you can do against their possession game. Defending the 0-1 until half time was the best thing to do, imo.

 

[Programmechap2]

Two games unbeaten.

View attachment 174516

Astonishingly last time we went 2 or more unbeaten in the PL was the draw and 3 wins v Spurs, Burnley, Wolves and Chelsea in July 2020!

 

[CambridgeshireBlade]

The refereeing was weird. Not bad but seemingly wanted it to be a non contact sport

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

Brilliant result, and was nice to see us playing with our heads up second half.

 

[Frank the tank]

Midfield is awful. Zero clue about keeping hold of the ball, zero clue about off the ball movement.

hamers played well
norwood ok souza not so much

Jaoa Pedro was obviously sent on with the instruction to go down for everything and try and get one of ours sent off.

Diving c**t

i thought that

 

[CambridgeshireBlade]

Thought we'd get thoroughly rogered today. Coincidentally you don't have to look far for that in Brighton

 

[LS5 Blade]

I'd like to see the same disrespect shown to Kompany in the media for the next fortnight that we've endured since the Newcastle game now that he's shown with a budget 4 times what ours is how over rated he is!

 

[Greg.]

Racked up our highest xG (non-penalty) of the season - not saying much!
