Who the "bigger" club is will be meaningless on Sunday, and frankly it depends how you measure bigness. I am a bit worried about this one as it feels like Harry Potter is on the cusp of getting it right...

Can never call this game! We could win 3-0 or loose 3-0 just comes down to the day I guess!

This is where the season really starts for us. Southampton, playing suicidal defensive tactics along the half way line made us look pretty flattering for our win. Man Utd are, well, quite frankly the worst Utd side I have seen since before Ferguson and they have proved it by suffering against other mediocre teams. Everton were fortunate to get the win against us and a draw would have been a fair result. Chelsea totally annihilated us and made us look like we were in end of last season mode. So this weekend for me is so important and not just because we are playing the weed. If the Everton team turns up I expect a win. If the Chelsea team turns up we will probably ship at least three. Make no mistake this is a big game and will set the tone for the next few weeks when we have chances of picking up points.

There are many clubs 'bigger' than us, whatever that means. Besides, Brighton have historically more wins than us by 40 to 37, with 26 draws. If we're not up for this, expect Brighton to run rings round us. We need to hit the ground running and get stuck right into them. Make no mistake, they are a good side.

Bit quiet on the build up to this. I forgot all about it. Football needs fans there.

If we approach the game like we did against Chelsea we will lose 0-2.

Both matches last year we didn't look up for it - they did. I don't want to see that this season. If we play pansy football and get bullied by them, I will not be best pleased.

Today's result at Chelsea confirms that Roy showed them far too much respect. If he is equally cautious with Brighton we'll lose. I think this match will be a genuine indicator of where we are now.
I have now sufficient funds to last me the rest of my life. Provided I don't buy anything. |

I read a stat that we'd only finished lower than them once in the last 50 years or something...... and the year we finished lower than them we beat them in the play offs and got promoted. Thanks for the reply. Good to know. Let's have our fingers crossed for a result then. I know my draw prediction wasn't the most exciting! Bring on the win.
