It is when it puts your team right back into trouble.

Just giving us more chance to see his defending.

First half we weren’t at the races. Actually think that’s because Leicester are (despite everything going on off the pitch) quite a decent team. Second half we were a different animal - not quite back to back out fluent best but showing signs of it. Fair summary or do my 11 pints consumed make it inaccurate?

 

[jordan210]

That was the kind of win we needed.

had to fight for it and both strikers for a goal. Hopefully confidence is now sky high

I love how sombre the Sky pundits are whenever we win. What did we do to make Jobi McAnuff hate us?!

I think he likes us. Andy Hinchcliffe hates us.

Probably the same thing we did to never be awarded a penalty again

 

[shmmeee]

The fact he isn't quick and he isn't tall shows that he has a lot of top defensive attributes. He reads the game very well, uses his strength and springs well. I think he has a great attitude as well.

In all seriousness this.

Please follow up with 3pts on Tuesday. Please.

Got above our station as a sympathy story

 

[2024/25 League 1 Champs?]

Fuck Leicester. Tinpot club, shithole town, best player is from Cov, kit looks shit, crap owner, crap stadium, crap season. I hope they enjoy their points deduction and their trip to Stockport County next season.

just to be clear, are you saying you don’t like Leicester?

 

[Chris1987]

Delighted to get the win. Feel like I've been bashed about a bit over the last 90 minutes !

We don't even get to hear the refs explain these ridiculous decisions. You just know we won't get away with the equivalent stuff in our own box.

 

[mrfr]

It could be worse, but only if Aleppo was ever so slightly better.

Perfectly put into words.

Rushworth an utter legend for holding firm at the end too.

I think it was Fatawu who went through after Grimes did his Kastaneer impression. I swear in real time it looked like Rushworth had dived before the shot was even taken and then just casually caught and held onto the ball. I reckon he's got one of of those time-turner's from Harry Potter!

 

[Nick]

Not seen the kitching thing back, what happened

 

[SIR ERNIE]

The EMC one is stonewall.

They both were. 100%

 

[RoysterE17]

Hope the boys are bouncing blaring music in that changing room right now. Think that comeback really will do them the world of good. 1st half really concerning but 2nd half what a fight!! We march on!!

Handbags, not a red

Not seen the kitching thing back, what happened

The attacker was all arms trying to get round him and Kitching fell to the floor when the Leicester player flicked a foot out towards him. Not more than a yellow, but dumb from their player nonetheless.

[steve101]

This team doesn't fold. We could have buckled after the first half but played positively and with intent second half. Great resolve.

Thought he elbowed their lad in the back of the head tbh

and bashing one out for the next 90?

You are producing strong post-match content.

 

[clint van damme]

Lampards subs were outstanding today. Absolutely spot on.

Kitching was wrestling the guy who was trying to get past him to close Rushworth, then Kitching faked being hit in the face.

Shows having depth on the bench changes things

 

[SKYBLUES90]

Well done! Perseverance wins the day! We were awful. Great win!

Not stop getting angry all of you. It’s no good for your mental healt!

Least you can front it.

Not like that shit house @hackneyfox who I’m sure will show his face when you’re back on the up.

Sounds like a clear red to them

Looked like he got hit imo.

 

[JohnWH]

Good to see BTA back on.

It was a ridiculous save but to hold it was mad

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

That's what having the options on the bench does for you. Add one more in central midfield and it's even better.

 

[long way home]

Subs make a difference, to have that bench without Thomas and KKH is good to see and we will need it.

2 more in some good players will be in the stand
