A good 3 points, but we made hard work of it the 2nd half

Watford cheering their players like they are heroes. That sums it up really.

We didn’t really look like a promotion-chasing team today but we win 3-1.

I agree how can you look like a promotion chasing team when you’ve scored 3 goals and got 3 points.

Did we even have a shot on target in the second half?

 

[Terry Gibson's perm]

As usual when I’m away we score a few and get a good result

 

[fatso]

Frustrating. I mean, 3-1 at home you'd take all day but it's a really poor, tired performance.

Another 3 wins in 8 days.

Great results, even when not at 100%
Let's take it and move in to the Wrexham game.

 

[DT-R]

How can you feel so flat and deflated after winning 3-1? Because thats exactly how that feels!
Poor, poor game management. Out played again for large parts of the game. Really rode our luck. Thankfully we were clinical when it mattered.

Another good win

Yes we didn't play well second half but it's human nature to be complacent when 3 up and a man advantage. I'm sure lampard will ensure they don't react like that on similar situations in the future

No torp or rudoni. Mve now suspended.

Alls bout pocking up wins and getting through this slog of a season

Now we sit back and hope some rival teams drop pts

PUSB

We looked like we were the ones with 10 men second half. Pretty poor performance but 3 points is all that matters.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

That’s pretty bizarre as games of football go. Rushworth has worked miracles in goal and we’ve taken every chance.

Very harsh on Watford, we’re really missing that extra man in midfield. Must just be our season!

 

[skybluecam]

Actually a pretty poor performance. 2 midfielders doesn’t work.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Who is the third?

Eccles?

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Worst performance of the season and won with room to spare

 

[skybluecam]

What was Eccles doing when he came on btw, standing next to Simms as if he was playing as a second striker.

Not fit at all

They were good.

No-one else has caused us anything like that sort of trouble. However, they won't do anything this season because they're calamitous at the back.

 

[Tommo1993]

Flattering. Rode our luck, very lucky first half and got bossed by 10 men in the second. Wouldn’t recommend letting teams go at us like that if our ambitions are autos.

A bit odd to feel defalted after winning , your expectations are getting maybe too far ahead .. we will have poor games

 

[procdoc]

We were dreadful second half but a win is a win

 

[Cally Fedora]

A wins a win. Difficult mentally when you’re 3 up v 10 but that was a distinctly average display. Balls in behind our full backs are really easy.

More impressed by them against us than anyone else so far. On a different day with a different keeper they score 3 or 4.

We looked overrun in midfield and then complacent on top.

I’m pissed at the second half but elated we scored a other 3 goals and got the win

 

[covmark]

Watford will cause other teams problems, they're a very decent side. Second half was pretty poor, but being 3 up and a man up is bound to just put complacency into the players minds.
First half some of our attacking play was excellent. Another 3 points in the bag.

 

[David O'Day]

Not at our best but another 3 win week

Realising I want Wrexham and Leicester to win this afternoon is sickening

Its all well and good having poor games, but to be completely outplayed for 45 mins by 10 men, at home, and pick up 3 yellows, a suspension and gift a daft penalty. Thats not having a "poor game". Thats just piss poor game management. Thankfully we were clinical when it mattered.

Exactly. They played like heroes in the second half and people aren't happy because we've not scored against a side sitting deep. We won 3-1!

It all stemmed from being too light in the middle I think.

Leicester to draw would be better I reckon…if that helps?

Rode our luck? Really!?

 

[The Philosopher]

A few times we left the ball exposed in our own penalty area / didn’t clear quick enough etc. On another day that would have cost us goals

Where’s the big voice back there?

Just a minor quibble.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

No team can play well every game for a full season. There will be bumps along the way but we’re in a great position, are getting great results and have been playing very well for the majority of the season. I’m sure Lampard will have learnt a few things today and we’ll work to iron out the issues.

 

[Earlsdon_Skyblue1]

We looked very complacent, but frankly I don't care. It's another three points and another week we go undefeated.

A seven point gap on 3rd place, and a ten point gap on 7th place. We are flying.

Enjoy it!
