Brighton v Wolves verdict thread

[xbomber]

May as well do now as I'll be busy next week.

Whilst we had some good spells when we passed it around at the back with confidence, once the first Brighton goal went in i just couldn't see us getting back into the match. No obvious way of playing or identity for us and some silly mistakes at the back.

Onto the next one

 

[marrs-guitar]

My highlight was Jackson falling over his own feet and pulling on to Tolu's hair as he tried to break his fall. Down to 10 in the first minute we didn't stand a chance.

 

[Olivergoldblack]

We did well to draw the second half 0-0 after strengthening the defence by taking all our forwards off. If we didn't let 4 in the first half we'd be celebrating a point.

 

[Black Country Wanderer]

Did well to get 0
Edwards getting sent off to avoid the fans at the end was class

 

[rubyloo]

Traffic was terrible, game wasn't much better.

 

[xbomber]

I wasn't sure about Tolu's hair extensions you know.

Not purely because him sashaying around and dipping his head to bait burly defenders is unfair, but also because strawberry blonde just isn't his colour.

 

[5 - Lescott]

Dreadful again. Edwards out

 

[WickedWolfie]

All Fosun seem to care about is avoiding humiliation. Starting to look like it will take an absolute stuffing to get Boring Rob Edwards given the coup de grace. Brighton could easily deliver it.

 

[woop woop barmy army]

Didn't expect we would field a team full of players with dreadlocks.

Even with 7 Men Brighton looked better than us.

Sumed up at the end of the match when 43 year old James Milner beat Jackson in a sprint race

 

[Golden Arrow]

I've had some unpleasant end of season experiences at the Amex for my liking.
Brighton are still in the hunt for Europe so a routine home win.
2-0 or 3-0

Errr - we have been totally humiliated this season, haven’t we?

 

[JOSWolf]

The group worked ard.

 

[JR WAS KING]

I thought the 6-0 drubbing was bad, but this eclipsed it.

At least I've had a nice weekend in Brighton.

 

[Lupo]

The group worked ard.

We did get a result - I mean, a defeat is still a result and we did win the second arf

 

[WickedWolfie]

Errr - we have been totally humiliated this season, haven’t we?

Regular four goal plus defeats etc...

 

[Incognito]

Edwards going down the tunnel midway through the first half and not coming back out again, makes me think it wasn't just a ****...

 

[Rednal Wolf]

The group worked ard.

"Drew the 2nd alf , just couldnt recover from the three goal lead they created in the first alf "

 

[Lawndog]

"Drew the 2nd alf , just couldnt recover from the SIX goal lead they created in the first alf "

There you go!

 

[Supadavewolf]

Yes, I didn't believe it either.

Who knew that, under new PL rules this season, winning by 10 clear goals would earn us 25 bonus points and keep us up?






Pity we lost 4 nil.

 

[Minimalist]

Jokes aside , if the players due to go to the World Cup once again don’t play, that conspiracy theory is going to be very very plausible.

The irony of course being that they would lose match fitness by not playing....

 

[Mardenboroughs Shoulder]

Has someone fired up the DeLorean again? If so, can they take me back to 31st May 2017, so I can relive the Nuno years again?

Why the half measures? I'm going back to the 60s to watch us lift a proper trophy or two.

It's just a shame that for the period I'd love to revisit, the 1980s, Wolves were pretty much a steaming pile of Tchatchoua.

 

[Contrarian]

Errr - we have been totally humiliated this season, haven’t we?

We got past Derby's record. Is that not enough?

 

[QB Wolf]

I just can’t believe he picked the side he did, Tolu/Armstrong/Tchatchoua/Lima/Sa/Bentley/ Hugo/Wolfe/Hwang/Angel (delete as appropriate) aren’t good enough, he should have played Tolu/Armstrong/Tchatchoua/Lima/Sa/Bentley/ Hugo/Wolfe/Hwang/Angel (add as appropriate).

 

[Rhoswolf]

Can the 20% still backing our useless manager seek immediate counselling, clearly they have deep lying psychological issues. As for the game, lost count when my abacus finally gave up.
Safe journey all those foolish enough to travel. Out-of darkness comes hell.
Looking forward to the detailed breakdown of tactics by @gullykular explaining how RE did well and carries no blame

So @superwolves won't be doing similarly??

More than likely

 

[Golden Arrow]

Started the journey to Brighton (no I'm not trying to emulate Manny's good work).
I've managed to get a lilo and deckchair into my backpack just in case the players decide they're having a day on the beach!

 

[Ruitonwolf]

Brighton 3-0 Wolves

 

[JTWolf]

Hope we get trounced and fans gives Edwards pellets from 30 minutes in.

Bloke isn’t even allowed on the team coach back home.

 

[Teamgreek]

RE heard the noise about attacking football, and to be fair, he tried hard to push the team up the pitch (for the last 5 mins anyway), but we could not help but ship 4 in by that stage, and the contest was long over.

2 shots on target and 4 shots off target, and the fans made themselves heard with the displeasure, with chants of Fosun out and RE is a Banker.

In the post-match interview, he was all smiles as usual, telling the people that his side gave a 100%, and we would work even harder in training LOL

 

[Jefe]

After the 4-0 hammering at Brighton, Rob Edwards simply shrugged and said, "Meh, not my fault".

 

[wolvesnl]

Thought we were excellent. Comfortably the better side apart from the 6 goal swing.

Just small moments deciding the game again.

Lads were terrific. Really good group. Getting as much out of them as possible.

Surprised to see we didn’t leave our half - never seen that tactic before - and if it weren’t for Brightons 26 shots we could have probably stolen something from the game.

 

[Golden Arrow]

A welcome pint in the "Evening Star" Public House (close to the station).
They've got beer here that will knock your block off ! (7 & 8%).
Not really pre-match beverage but I'll give it a bash tomorrow to numb the effect of what is likely to follow.

 

[WolvesAndCows]

A potential Champions League spot for Brighton to play for

 

[Golden Arrow]

Just looked out of the bedroom window and facing me is "Mr Wang, Hot Pot and Noodle Bang".
It's a sign !!
Our intrepid South Korean will bang in a couple tomorrow and we'll record our first away win of the season.

Then again.........

 

[xbomber]

Just to add that while it was good to see Lima and Mane get more minutes in today, they didn't influence the game much and not sure they'll have the physical presence in the champ.

Also think that we'll need to upgrade Bentley. While he may be a decent shot stopper, he should have done better for one of the goals I think. He also should have considered a cap if the bright sun was a factor. I assume Sudu don't make them yet so we wasn't allowed to have one on.

Oh and Wang ran around a lot until he got tired and one of his falling overs was a bit embarrassing.

 

[Willywolf]

We tried, but they were just too strong for us over the ninety half seconds

 

[Scallywolf]

2-0 down after 5 minutes.

AN ABSOLUTE DISGRACE ALREADY!
