I missed this FA Cup first round match, and what a cracker. Gavin Hoyte sent off (I think that’s six red cards for the Albion this season now), Nicky Forster scores his tenth goal of the season, and Glenn Murray gets a brace. Nothing dull about this team eh?
The reason for my absence? I was at Falmer High School all day, attending my FA Level 1 in coaching football course. It was a good laugh, and even the big shiny skeleton of a new stadium going up behind the University of Brighton site didn’t put me off my game too much.
Albion Team (goalscorers in bold):
(4-4-2) Smith; Hoyte, Virgo, Elphick, El-Abd; Bennett, Crofts, Dicker, Cox; Forster (Davies 73), Murray (2)
Subs: Kuipers, Navarro, McLeod, Tunnicliffe, Livermore, C Barker.

sounded very exciting and nice that Muzza is back scoring goals and we should win the replay.
theres been a lot of talk about Poyet and Taylor as the new dream team and yes it sounds very good Poyet would make a very good figurehead and Taylor is a great coach(I remember his stint as under 21 manager/coach and I don’t remember them losing a game)
the pair will do for me as long as its both of them and not just one of them with a fill in and theres always the fear of either being poached.
Ah well we will know soon.

Yup, good that Murray stole the show, but scoring 3 goals in one game, then 4 next game – and winning neither – shows we have a serious failing at the back.
Poyet and Taylor would be a flair ticket for sure
