We even managed to make a 2-2 draw boring.

I didn't see it but you must be pleased with at least scoring twice!

Sad that I was hoping for two draws today for teams in the bottom half of the table.

Will be irrelevant if we don't start scoring ourselves!

I guess. But one was a penalty, and they were our only two shots on target in the entire match. A couple of first half headers off target were our only other chances of note.

Yet again a case of us just passing it sideways and backwards around the defence and midfield, whilst the opposition comfortably put men behind the ball.

Newcastle showed next to no ability. And yet almost beat us. Same as Swansea, same as Huddersfield. Whilst Stoke went one better and actually did beat us. Just two wins from eight games for us - including five at home - and yet Watford are the only opposition to impress me.

Kelechi Iheanacho seems like a waste of 25 million so far. City are very happy with the deal but he seems a long way from the promise he once showed.

You hope so.

Has english football introduced retrospective bans for diving?

I see the panel cleared him, first case under the new rules.

I'd scrap it now, pointless!

He did dive, but seemed to get a slight touch as well. Difficult one.

Mike Ashley has put NUFC up for sale. He's even prepared to let someone buy it on tick, so he must be desperate to get rid. Something to do with the tax man's investigation perhaps?

Leicester part ways with Shakespear.

Leicester had a tough start to the season but the powers that be have decided not to wait and see. To be honest i would be happy to Leicester get relegated.

Murray should have made it 2-0 Brighton but Hart ultimately made sure that was the half time score!

Murray penalty makes it 3-0!

I don't know what West Ham's record is at the Olympic stadium since they moved in, but I have a feeling it's pretty dire!

Can never understand why West Ham left Upton Park in the first place tbh

money..... probably. Usually is

West ham left because their woners got free acomidation at a new ground and could sell the old ground for houseing and have made millions from it. West ham, the only states sponosred football team in Europe.

Great result for Brighton though.Up to 10th and 5 points clear of relegation places. Doing bettre than many had thought.

Brighton, desperately in need of a new ground, move into a fantastic new stadium, that revitalises the club and supporters, and it's fortunes go from strength to strength.

West Ham on the other hand, not in desperate need of a new home, move into a fantastic new stadium that has totally the opposite effect it would seem.
