I was not a fan of his until he really impressed at the tail end of last season.To drop a lad who got us the points for Auto Promotion is not good.I hope he comes good and bringing him on vs Stoke was not a good idea as he was in headless chicken mode.

Poyet said that he would build the team around CMS, woe betide them if he gets injured or suspended. Eggs and baskets...

Jackson has had one and a bit games and you have written him off. Hmmm....

I think the way people have been going on today shows a complete lack of respect towards the squad that got us to the Premiership.

Just because we lost a meaningless game against MK Dons last night all the ''doom mongers'' have come out of the woodwork, and by the way fleckfan, the number of posts could mean one of two things, you are either a glory hunter who doesn''t understand the concept of football or you are already a registered user who didn''t want his ''record'' tarnished with this point of view.

Onto your jaded point of view then, what''s to say CMS would''ve done anything in the Premiership? This is EXACTLY the same as the Simeon Jackson/Cody McDonald argument AGAIN. (look where that ended up) People frustratingly (is that a word?) just not getting football, if a player is in a lower division scoring goals there''s no gauarentee they will do the business at a higher level.

I''d rather give a chance to the player who dominated when we gave him a fair chance at the end of last season.That said though that wasn''t the choice.. The choice was:Morison or CMS = Morison - because he looked really good at WiganVaughan or CMS = Vaughan - because he has pedigree and was proven at a higher level than CMSI''m not bothered at all we didn''t get him. We have lots of strikers.

Hoskins and Barnes look better at Brighton to me and none of them are as good as the forwards we have here.Also expect that Brighton will be well over achieving if they finish the season in the top six.  I expect them to finish around 8th to 10th.
