STRANGE NIGHT, STRANGE RESULT, STRANGE FEELING

Couldn't agree more with that overview of the game, we played some great football at times, showed some good patience and build up, but our fans can't appreciate that and expect forward balls every time, then get on their back when they give it away or say we play hoof ball, sometime the players can never win whatever they do!

Thought Taylor was my MOM today, defended resolutely and got forward well, rarely giving the ball away, but still people like to criticise him! he's been in good form this last few weeks and is very under-rated! Hudson and Turner did a decent job, but I thought Connolly had a poor game. Noone was marked out of the game entirely, everytime he had it there were 3 Brighton players around him, and Conway did much better when he came on! Whitts was quiet again. Gunnar was everywhere and did well, Smith was quiet and didnt have a good game, Bellamy worked but nothing was coming off for him and Campbell had an off night entirely!

We hit the woodwork 4 times last night, a few inches was the difference for us ! And all the second balls in the box seemed to fall to Brighton players which was frustrating! It just wasn't our night last night and time to move on to the next match

We played the best football we have all season at home, and Taylor was outstanding. It was simply 'one of them games' We hit the bar twice and and the post. we must have had 15 shots on goal and didn't score they had four and scored two That's the way the donkey bollocks drops! Don't forget during a season we win a few of them
We'll play worse and win before the end of the season and we'll drop a few more points, but so will everyone else.
As for the red ? must admit ive been on the fence from the begining, realising we wouldn't have a future without the investment from someone who likes red, but last night when I walked into the ground and seen all that red, I could have cried
BUT ! Anyone who booed my team and that performance last night, simply because we lost, have no idea about football at all. You should have been in Ninian Park not so long ago, losing to Swindon or Bournemouth on a cold January night in front of 3000 and still applauded the boys off. And anyone who 'made a statement' by throwing away a scarf at the end of the game..................just f**k off we don't want you
C'MON CITY

How can people say if you threw away the scarfs or didn't take one people say f**k off we don't need you at the club... Well sorry mate in my eyes its the other way round people who take them and accept them should b the ones to f**k off we don't need you!

Well said. Some fans allowed themselves to be manipulated and bribed into accepting a scarf worth £2. The biggest fear is that most are like sheep and cannot even see that they have been duped.Some of the reaction on this messageboard is the realisation that they have been conned but it was clearly their choice.

Think you are missing the point mate, or maybe I should appologise for not getting my point across. A few in front of me at the end of the game threw the 'free' red scarf on to the pitch and booed the players because we lost..................you agree with that I don't like RED but equally I don't care if you do, its your choice. What I don't like is the ignorance of a few lump heads ( and only a few ) who turn against the players after we lose.

Only one thing to do with the scarves

What a wankerish thing to do.

Its not like Tans gonna stick his hand in there.

Some poor cleaner has got to fish that out.

Pathetic.

As disappointing as the result was tonight, I came away from the game thinking that we played some excellent football, I actually believe that some of it was some of the best we have played this season, no more long punts forward by the centre halves but the ball was played out from the back.

What I couldn't get my head around was the booing of our players when we were in possession of the ball, just because we were going backwards we still had possession.

We dominated Brighton tonight and had we been more clinical in front of goal then I have no doubt we could and should have scored 4 goals and that was before they got the classic sucker punch.

We were not beaten because we were bad.

The final ball, especially through the middle, was the biggest criticism I could have but the balls being delivered into the box from the wings was unrelenting.

Taylor arguably had his best game for City and Craig Conway must have played his way back into the starting line up.

Every now and again we are going to lose a game and this division always throws up unexpected results and tonight was no different with both Leicester and ourselves losing at home.

The red scarf is a talking point tonight and I don't know what I expected to see but I certainly didn't expect to see the sea of red that greeted me when I walked through the concourse of the family stand and I was more shocked at the sight of the three stands I could see from my seat, as I say I didn't know what to expect but what I did see shocked me.

I wore a football top tonight to a football match for the first time in over 10 years and I felt different, not because it was not my normal attire but because I felt an outcast, I felt a lonely figure of blue in a stadium full of red. It hit me more tonight that at any other time since the re-branding.

I suppose I better get to used to it because it is not going to change to my liking anytime soon.

I don't want to end the post on the colour so at Wolves on Sunday, like he has done so many times this season, I am sure Malky will turn a disappointing result around in the next game.

The evidence over the last two games suggests to me that somebody is going to get a battering of Cardiff City and I want that to be this Sunday against Wolves more than anything.

Keep the faith lads

I'm glad you said that - I thought I was the only one who saw the game that way. We will play worse than that this season and win - in fact, we HAVE played worse than that this season and won! (Millwall at home for example). In many ways we played better than Saturday but without the luck in front of goal, and against a better team, of course. Wolves look in a bit of a mess at the moment, and now is the time to play them before Saunders is sacked!

Onwards and upwards

No ones been conned or followed like sheep and that's a bit rich saying that when that is exactly what happens with certain people following others and taking their word on everything on this message board

Forgot to add I don't mean Carl who speaks a lot of sense after last night

Carl.

Do you know if the bloke under the bridge was ok after?

His name is Geraint, he is a diabetic. My brother Jamie who is a diabetic himself gave him glucose and then took his blood sugar levels and he is levels were extremely low.

We walked him to the Ninian pub to sit him down in the warm whilst the ambulance was on route, the positive was that he was responsive and we got him to his feet and he was responding when we left.

Good man - I am a type 1 diabetic too, always appreciate a helping hand, always happy to lend one. Well done.

i wore all blue and my boy was all red. his face painted half blue half red. move on everybody, take they're money , get promoted, get fiances sorted, then get our badge then colour back.

good, balanced post carl.

Hit home last night how things are changing for the city, looked across from the back of the canton and thought i was in anfield ffs didn't like what I saw. Strange atmosphere as well very subdued and to cap it all went to the bar 5 mins before half time and arsenal on tv fcuk me I miss blue

I went for a slash on about 25 mins and there was several people down there watching the Arsenal.

The mind boggles.

The booing when they go back I just don't understand. We've got the ball!! Keep it and start again. Don't here the Nou Camp doing that otherwise they'd be doing it for the whole 90 minutes!

Absolutely awful to see so much red. Really didn't expect to see so many scarfs. Really does hurt

but we dont start again hudson gives a thirty yard back pass to marshall who then just hoofs the ball straight up the middle which results in us losing posession

whats wrong with the club showing arsenal while we are playing

No other team should be on any tv whilest we are playing who ever thought that was a good idea is a f*cking numpty.

I found it quite funny

(It wasn't mine by the way, I wouldn't touch that shit)

WE WANNA BE BLUE WE HATE BEING RED, BLUE BIRDS FOREVER!

Surprised people are praising Taylor, I'm a big fan of his but massively at fault for the first goal and an average performance from him. Suppose if you compare him to Connally at full back tho

I think it depends where people are sitting. I sit on Ninian 112 so i get a good view of Taylor defending and Conolly going forward which are the weaker points of both their games.

I'm in 113 so same for me.
Connally will never be a fullback IMO.
