What bullshit, low budget means players can not shoot on target. Better players on the bench. can not be selected due to low budget.favouritism has cost cov a chance of promotion, not low budget

Poor trolling 5/10. Needs to be more believable.

It looked like Cuffey was under orders not to over commit you could see so many times he received the ball went to drive forward then checked

Can Waghorn come back on Weds

Not sure about that. There were times he was level with the front 2.

Palmer looked to be put through his paces after the game he was moving well probably fit enough for a bench spot

Never took Giles on though despite the the fact we know Giles can’t defend for shit

You were watching a different game

Not at all he nullified Giles threat going forward but never took him on going towards their goal

First half no
Second half many times

 

[OldBedrocker]

Do you not think he stopped almost under instruction?

Comes on for a last minute extra time winner.

 

[OldBedrocker]

It’s not a criticism of Cuffey I thought he was great defensively but held back offensively

He did, but his final ball was lacking.

Honestly would back robins to put him on instead of maguire

I think he’d bring Gerry Francis out of retirement than play Maguire

Anyone have any idea whether he genuinely could feature Wednesday

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Two or three were excellent

 

[TomRad85]

Again, Cuffey looks clumsy but he gets the ball up the pitch at least and you have to say Giles did very little, which means he did a decent job defensively too.

And I wouldn’t blame him

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

Thought it was interesting to see two clearly different routes each team is trying to score. One aiming for the channels every time and the other trying to split the defence running into the box.

Biamou or Maguire?

 

[harvey098]

Despite the pretty cagey / crap game, I loved every second of today. Our season really should already be over so anything that happens on Wednesday is a bonus. To go into it still with a fighting chance is good enough for me. What a season it’s been. PUSB

No highlight's on ITV. Strange

Erm…

Lol

Sad to say, but in my opinion, Boro ran the game. They decided when to attack, which was the first half and in the second half they sat back and didn't even take offensive set pieces, just time wasted, passed it about well and their keeper was embarrassing and the ref more so for not booking him.

Meaningless to run a game and do fuck all with it though. Without doubt their arse is as twitchy as ours going into the second leg level.
