Even the bookies have given us big odds to win.

Cardiff City tonight to beat Brighton away, you can get just over 5/1 for us to win.

I'd be delighted with a draw Annis but fear we're going to have our hands full tonight and will be right up against it. We're not going to see an awful lot of the ball so when we do have it, we're going to have to make it count. :bluescarf:

Norms a point would be brilliant, I don't believe we will get hammered thanks to Warnock.

Under Slade/Trollope or Ole yes a hammering.

Think we are going to struggle tonight.

Our lack of pace in defence and poor striker options may mean that
we may be under the cosh a bit.

Hope they knock knockhart!!!!

Definitely worth a tenner.. never know what we're capable of these days. Let's hope we see a performance similar to Villa at home!

Annis I agree that under Trollope we would have taken a battering but you need to give Slade a bit more credit than you do. If I am right in thinking then he was unbeaten against Brighton including handing out a four one win at home last season during his tenure here.

As much as the football was painful under Slade and there was not often a plan B he still did keep us in the playoff hunt last season until the last but two games. He was also dealing with the cost cutting and a transfer embargo. Unfortunately he had that Dave Jones syndrome and bottled it when it mattered.


Don't get me wrong Warnock is right for this club now and will get us higher up the table and thank god the board seen sense :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

We played well at Newcastle, I would say Brighton is not as hard a place to go as Newcastle, I can see a draw tonight, although pilks is a big loss.
