Watching it back, it's because the Norwich player on the front post grabs KDH and pulls him out of position to make space for the incoming attackers. Should have been a foul really.

Here's a pic of his Dad driving to Seagrave to see his son play:

Maddison was right when he said "Play like that, and we'll be fine". We got relegated, and he got his nice big move and Big 6 certified place in the England Squad. Youri got the free transfer of his dreams to Aston Villa, Castagne got to go to Fulham, Barnes got himself a front row seat on Newcastle's bench to watch Anthony Gordon play every week. They really were all fine, just like Chilwell blazing a trail before them, half arsing the way through his final season and picking up an "injury" that kept him out the run in and helped his soon to be new employers make sure they were in the Champions League (and we weren't, helps the price stay lower, naturally). KDH had his shop window performance vs Chelsea, now he can afford to coast through the rest of this season, watch by passively as we crash and burn in the playoffs, then get a cut price deal out of Transfer Um-bongo land straight back to the Prem at Brighton. He'll be fine, just like all those before him were. We'll be the ones who are stuffed.

Team kicks off with a loss at home in front of an empty stadium, after the club releases its new Diamond XXL Super Membership at an annual cost of £900 to get onto a waiting list for a lottery to have a chance at buying a match ticket, and season ticket holders sent to an internment camp after Showsec spots a pensioner with a medium sandwich and an orphaned child with a Ribena fruit shoot trying to enter the stadium.

The Mentality Muppets strike again. *Apologies to Kermit and Miss Piggy.

At least you'll get rid of some stubborn shit stains. Ours just hang around until their contracts expire, or are made Director of Football and Horse Racing and the Academy and President of the "you can't say he's responsible for anything" club for life.

In the case of Nyoni we haven't even got the few quid yet, still waiting for that tribunal.

We should raise our commercial income by leaning into the infamy and marketing it. Start selling a half time ffp meal deal in catering. Comes with a free carton of transfer Umbongo

There was a notable difference in MTX between Resident Evil 2 and 4 Remakes as well, they went from a single DLC to unlock all the bonus weapons in RE2, to selling an individual "Golden Ticket" DL to upgrade 1 weapon in RE4, along with bundles of multiple tickets. So there's defintely a direction of travel where they are ramping up this kind of thing at Capcom.

Fair enough. I was grasping for straws on the basis we'd be compley stuffed for squad numbers with people leaving and had a vague recollection he started out pretty well thee last season. Hadn't realised he'd gone downhill so rapidly On second thoughts, would make a good metaphor for what's happened to the club over the last 2 years, gerrimback.

I suppose Zack Booth for midfield and Nathan Opoku up front are possibilities as well, given they are both on loan at a reasonably high standard leagues in Holland and Belgium.

*Not trying to be mean to anyone here (except the Mercury headline writing AI Bot) , just couldn't resist the meme-ability

No. It's a grand plan to ensure that Man United, Liverpool and Arsenal are the only clubs with a chance of ever winning the league. Man United are shit, but it's okay.

So the board's quest to avoid FFP and a points deduction that might result in a potential relegation from the Prem this season (if we'd actually stayed up), has ended in a definite relegation last season, AND we still failed FFP, AND we're set to fail EFL FFP this season as well to boot. And if we do go up, we'll start on negative points, with all our best player assets already sold, and decreased 3 year allowed loss margins due to our year in the EFL purgatory. Plus it's not guaranteed we'll go up this year, so there's a chance we get stuck down here where the EFL will try and stick us with an enforced business plan to flog off our players, transfer bans and more points deductions as they make up their own FFP rules on the fly to see what they can punish us with. And they couldn't afford to sack Rodgers? It turns out they couldn't afford not to sack Rodgers, and the season of stupidity has put the club in a very risky position for the next few years. What an absolute cluster of massive proportions.

The clappers started turning up on the regular at the West Ham game that marked the start of the great escape. There was a lot more atmosphere after that point, but that might have had more to do with the fact that it was a desperate situation, and the fightback had to start there, so there was a collective consensus amongst the fanbase that we had to do something, and it coincided with a big effort by the players as well. Pearson tweaked his wingbacks to make his back 5 formation more attacking, and a late King winner set the tone for a real shift in momentum compared to the previous home game against Hull. So what we need isn't clappers themselves, but the collective realisation that we are in a sticky spot, and a real desire to try and drag the team over the line by making a din to encourage them. Clappers might be useful for the more silent parts of the ground, as it at least means they contribute something to make the overall noise level a bit more continuous around the bowl, but the most important thing is a consensus that we aren't all just going to sit there in our seats and do nothing to help while it unravels on the pitch in front of us!

The beauty of it, was that we were in his hands, as he dropped us to the floor and drop kicked us into the EFL with his size 6 Gucci loafers.

What will get Brighton eventually is the death by a thousand cuts. The big 6 keep coming after their players, their managers, their DoF, their scouts. They've done a superb job so far of replacing, but their recruitment of players and staff keeps getting tested again and again. If they lose their way even slightly, it's a downward slope. It happened to Southampton when they were on a great recruitment run (they've lost Bale, Mane, Van Dijk, Lallana, Schneiderlein, Lovren, Walcott, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Shaw and so on until they got worn down into relegation), it happened to us (we've basically been strong-armed into selling every saleable asset we had, and now KDH is next in the firing line). It's going to get them eventually, there's only so many key staff you an cope without, especially if they are going after your recruiters at the same time.

We gave it a go, ultimately, not too fussed we are out as there was no way we were winning this competition - even if we were playing Cov in the semi final, and had won, we'd have had to play Man City, Liverpool or Man United in the final. The first two would have won anyway, and United would be given as much ref help as necessary to win even if they were shit.

That's the power of being able to spend 60 million on Academy products from Man City and Villa, on top of the fat end of a billion quid rinsed in 2 years. Still, better make sure we don't make a loss though, wouldn't be financially fair

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

All started when Faes gave the ball away stupidly in their half. Put Vestergaard and Doyle right in the shit

Second outside the box penalty in a row

Top BBC directing there

They broke down our Left Wing. Then we got it back, countered and Doyle was our furthest man forward Don't forget to do your day job, Callum.
