    Defeats you couldn't give LESS of a shit about

    This is a group of players that for two seasons have been giving everything to reach the premier league, a goal they obtained on Monday. The outpouring of emotion was there for all to see and the release of tension must have been massive. I for one can't get too worked up if a few days later...

    Nice man Hughton faces tough decisions

    I'm another who thinks we are reasonably served at the back subject to poc signing and goldson being fit. I believe we won't be playing 442 next year. Most premier league teams tend to favour three in there and with the extra quality we may get over run. So midfield needs additions plus a quick...

    Will Glenn Murray go down in history as a legend in the same way as Bobby Zamora IF we are

    Of course, his goals has probably clinched the promotion we have all dreamed of. For me everyone involved in this seasons possible achievement will always be legends in my eyes.

    Is anybody still worried that we will not get automatic promotion?

    My feelings tend to fluctuate from worried to confident on an hourly basis. The logical side of me recognises that Huddersfield will drop at least 4 points on the run in with a couple of draws which will be an excellent return given their run in and means one win for us will be enough. But...

    It's time. We're going up.

    Yesterday I was convinced that whilst not singing yet the fat lady was in the bath warming her voice up. Today I have the same conviction it all going to go wrong. Please someone reassure me that yesterday was the correct feeling! Yesterday I decided not to shave until it was done, worried today...

    Sacked After Losing At Amex ....

    Clearly behind the scenes issues here. A talented squad which should be doing better, much better. Indeed my one wish is that the new manager gets them to showcase their talents particularly at home to Huddersfield!

    How many points do the Albion need for Auto-promotion ?

    At the start of the season would have said 90 was enough but have revised to 93. Huddersfield have been on an superb run with 25 points in the last 10. I just don't see them matching that over the next 10 when the pressure mounts. They have Norwich early into a possible new manager bounce, Derby...

    If you were offered a draw now vs Newcastle would you take it?

    Beat me to it. A draw would be okay if this follows. One thing I will say is I am much more relaxed about it following yesterday.

    Brighton & Hove Albion vs Brentford *** Official Match Thread ***

    A horrible, horrible performance. Did have some concerns that they may have been a hangover from last season and I hope this is what it is. But we certainly haven't helped ourselves with what I would describe as an average transfer window. Personally I would have sold Stephens and got the...

    Does no new striker signal the end of the season's hopes for you?

    Top six probably but injury to murray and or hemed would change my thoughts. We are needing a bit of luck now and perhaps after the last few years we may get it

    No striker then?

    Whilst the previous poster maybe going too far by the same token it is the recruitment team which has left us with 3 strikers one of which seems to find the actual scoring part problematical and therefore praying murray stays fit. How hard they tried is irrelevant, those are the facts. I for one...

    No striker then?

    Poor and disappointing if true. They have had all summer to deal with this key area and have failed. 3 strikers, one who can't hit a cow arse with a banjo, and suddenly Elvis is 4th choice after being deemed not good enough last season. So we have to make do whilst all around strengthen. I worry...

    [Albion] There is ZERO chance of SIGNING anyone today.

    Apart from Murray the players you mention are wide players who can, at a push play centrally and will chip in with goals, but however you put it 3 strikers is not enough for a promotion seeking side. As I have said before any sort of injury or loss of form, which hemed suffered from last season...

    [Albion] There is ZERO chance of SIGNING anyone today.

    I agree, good business but.. Don't sign a striker today, which I believe we will, and we will go until January with three first choice strikers leaving open to chance in relation to form and fitness or having to paly someone out of position. That would be a huge gamble and I for one would be...

    No striker then?

    Well at least we will know one way or another in just over a day. The squad is looking okay, assuming Dale stays as I,m beginning to think he will, apart from one area. I am pretty hopeful we will sign someone, going until January with three first team strikers and leaving yourself open to...

    Bendtner

    talented but seems to have attitude problem so not for me personally, but up to Chris I guess. Would be disappointed if this was the forward we ended up with after waiting all summer, not based on his ability but more his apparent lack of commitment or desire.

    Sebastien Pocognoci signs on a season long loan deal

    happy with this, if happens. Strong now in defensive areas, just striker to go.

    We need to talk about Dale

    I hope Dale is still here on 1st Sept but sadly I cant see it as likely with him not playing in the last couple of games. I guess Saturday will confirm that. Maybe we are waiting for inbound before agreeing the deal, I understand 6 million against nothing in a year. But adding to the required...

    Matej Vydra

    A player with possibly a point to prove after a couple of poor seasons, I for one would take him, but suspect we cant or wont pay whats needed. A decent choice of strikers for Derby if happens, certainly more varied than our current three plus Elvis

    Calum Chambers

    great player at this level but never going to happen. I was under the impression that Arsenal had no defenders fit?
