Humpty 3,239 Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 What's everyone worried about. We have only to draw to get promotion. 66% percent chance of success. We have home advantage with all that entails, no travelling to the venue. The somewhat debatable, but the potentially overwhelming influence of a large home crowd roaring the team on, can have on individual players, in particularly in set piece circumstances. We have the meanest defence in the league. Brighton need to score. We have one of the most expensive and prolific goal scorers in the Championship over the last five years or so. For every goal we score Brighton need to score two. We have a meticulous, intelligent, ambitious and professional manager. some say the best this club had had for a long time. (Malcolm Allison has been mentioned) The players should still remember what disappointment feel like. What have Brighton got Chris Hughton. PHhhhhh. Come on Boro. 1-0 Brighton it is Link to post Share on other sites
timlloyd 18 Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 is it possible Brighton have been coasting against teams who are not motivated? As someone pointed out earlier Derby put on a bit of pressure and they don't like it up 'em Link to post Share on other sites

"KM" 1,653 Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Club have arranged a full ground display for Saturday. 30,000 Karanka-Chiefs anyone? Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,230 Posted May 3, 2016 Share Posted May 3, 2016 Funny one this, I actually think that the 2nd goal in this game, should there be one, will be the most important in this game. At 1-0 up or down, a goal for us either puts us right in the driving seat or reminds Brighton we're still in the game. At 1-0 up, a goal for Brighton puts them on the front foot and might lead to them grabbing a 2nd through momentum. At 1-0 down, a 2nd for Brighton would really put us on the back foot. Regardless, we know we only need to score as many as they do and that's important. Even going as much as 2-0 down, we know we only need 2. 2-0 up and Brighton need to find 3. So pumped for this. Travelling down on Friday morning. When the train comes past Newport Bridge, it'll really hit me. COME ON BORO! Link to post Share on other sites

Jimmy 140 Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Think this is the most I've ever been turding it for a game, to the point where I'm trying to avoid Twitter etc this week, as it's just making it worse. I have no idea what it's going to be like on Sat, I'm gonna have to sink a few beforehand to calm the nerves. Speaking of which, are people still meeting before the game?

Dynamo Kev 1,552 Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 this is the brighton team that started the last game against us:- Stockdale Bruno Greer Hünemeier Calderon van La Parra Stephens Kayal Murphy Hemed wilson (edit) a few changes are likely. no vlp, hunemeier or calderon for sure this time. murphy and wilson probably on the bench. they will have knockhaert and lua lua available with rosenior starting at fullback with goldson starting at cb, he come on as a sub last game, greer has not played since about then either. remember woodgate going in or us at watford he was rusty and left deeney free at the back post to score. hope he is still blowing the gobwebs off when rhodes ghosts past him at all early on :) also just looking at their forum and seen comments about goldson marking rhodes quiet all game when they played blackburn so they are not to worried about him. keep telling yourselfs that seagulls, fyi rhodes have improved no end since coming here. i hope goldson thinks its going to be easy lol.
