Post Match Brighton 1 Leicester 0

[Mattmeister]

I'd walked away from the radio, has the ref explained it? What was the explanation?

Alleged violent conduct - Beckford supposedly kicked Dunk in the head.

 

[Matt_B]

Just a smokescreen for another failure in our dismal season.

Dismal? What is Forest's then? Even before the tragic events of today. It's not been a blow away season, but hardly dismal. "Meh" about sums it up.

 

[GazLCFC]

Just listening to the explanation of the sending off makes we want to weep!

What was said? When the players were asking the linesman about it he seemed to indicate beckford had kicked the player.

3 tv shows all have different reasons for Beckfords dismissal.

I'd agree with this. Meh it is.

**** the league let's win the cup.

Beer needed.

Agreed, on both counts.

Who mentioned Forest ? Did they blow a massive budget ?
Given what the managers of this club have been given by the owners this season, its absolutely dismal.

If you think mid-table is an acceptable tolerance for this season, you must be easily pleased.

Imo the paying supporter should have every right to feel disappointed with the teams efforts, and imo have every right to expect an awful lot more.

That's your opinion and if you think this season is dismal then you must be very, very difficult to please.Had we made the playoffs, would that have pushed it in to just tolerable?

 

[TornadoShaunUK]

I don't think there's any denying that we should be doing better and the fans are right to expect better given what we have at our disposal but what is also evident is that you can't buy promotion, this is going to require some patience from the owners and the fans.

For what it's worth I think we've blown it this year, too inconsistant, let's just avoid getting relegated, keep some stability going into the next season and the season after if that's what is required and go from there.

 

[Mawsley]

What smokescreen??

The constant whinging about referees as if there is an undercover plot.

 

[Matt_B]

We need to be in a position at the end of this season where we need a couple of players to tweak us into a team to challenge. Not where we need 8/9 or more players again. Not going up is the best thing that could happen this season IMO as we would just plummet back down, or have to overhaul the entire team.

Anything less than 6th place is a failure.

Sorry, dont understand where your coming from.
The play-offs should have been the minimum target for the club.
We are failing to take advantadge of a budget, that is the envy of most clubs at this level.
I'd doubt that the Thai's will consider it an adequate season, when the players are on the beach and whilst others are still contesting for a place in the prem.
Its not impossible even now, but most of us know its not likely to happen

I just hope that the owners have a belief in NP. After all, he's spent what 3mil? Sven was the one spending 10-15mil or whatever it was.

They have to believe that sticking with Pearson is the right thing to do. After all, our first season with MON was hardly a success. I know times were different then financially, but it's not ALL about money. NP must be given time because his record shows that he has turned teams around time again.

Any ultimate decisions will always come from the owners - so either it was their mistake bringing in Sven and letting him spend so much or it was their mistake in letting him so early in the season. NP needs time to build a squad with everything he stands for - desire, spirit and togetherness. And it will be their mistake to think that NP was guaranteed to get promotion this season.

Yes an awful season compared with finances given and expectations at the start of the season but this is Top and Vichai's own doing: they're the owners.

It's not unreasonable to think that, given the referee's antics the other night, there is an 'agenda' against us.

Referees and linesmen stick together when under attack.

Interesting that the FA took no further action against Nigel but I can imagine that ref will have made his feelings known to today's officials.

 

[LeeCovFox]

I haven't been the kindest about the owners, but I'm feeling more optimistic about their ability to show patience than I have previously. I'm hoping that the type of signings made by Pearson (young, up and coming, not big names) are a sign that they now appreciate that winning promotion means committing to a gradual squad building process as opposed to throwing money at more famous players.

I'd re-tweet that if i could

It was the ultimate success

I don't know if it has been mentioned but Pearson said there will be no FA action after he was sent to the stands vs Middlesbrough. I wonder if Beckford's red will get overturned? After Pearson's interview I get the impression that it will, in which case todays result really does leave a bitter taste in the mouth.
