Interesting early statistic from the BBC website.....

After 20 minutes or so Brighton have had 59% of the possession, Walsall 41%.

Yet we've had 1 shot on target and 2 off target, and Brighton have had none of either....

Oh, and Lampard has had a penalty saved by the Sjoke keeper Sorensen.
And Warwickshire, set to make 153 to win against Essex, are 68 for 1.

(Edit, only three minutes later... apparently Brighton now have 46% of the play, with Walsall 54%!!!) Unreliable stats???

Sounds like Brighton are knocking short passes across the back which would reflect those posession stats. Walsall have been far more effective and dangerous so far, having said that, Brighton are coming into it a bit more now.

Brighton have woken up. Come on Walsall.
Sounds like Nicholls is having a good game to be fair.

Indeed, and started well.

Reid missed two easy chances already


Commentators describing it more of a 4-5-1 now, rather than 4-3-3

(Nothing to do with this game - sorry)... They say football's a funny old game - with 10 minutes to go, Wigan have taken the lead at Tottenham 0-1 !!!!

Oh, and Pakistan are 58 for 7 at the moment.

We played really well for the first 40 minutes, since then Brighton have had the better of the game, what could of been if we'd took our 2 good chances.
