Apologies if this thread is in the wrong place, I'm obviously new here.
As the season is over, I've been frustrated with a lack of league action so have decided to try and find out a little bit about our opposition for next season as we're new to this division as a club.
Brighton have had a heck of a ride over the last few years and of course had some play-off heartache that I'm all too familiar with myself being a Brentford fan. Brighton's situation is a curious one, massively growing fan base, Gus Poyet then Oscar Garcia, then his departure and of course the new manager Sammy Hyppia. Obviously, during this period, Brentford had a promotion run-in. I attended ever single competitive match Brentford had last year, so obviously didn't have much time to watch Brighton.
I don't know the current financial situation, the management situation, the fan's aspirations for next season and so on....
From the outside looking it, it seems Brentford and Brighton will be fighting at different ends of the table come the closing stages of next season, however the Championship seems like a very topsy-turvy division, and from a Brentford perspective we believe if we do well we can be looking at the top ten as a target. Would be happy with staying up of course, with a new stadium two years away, maintaining our status is priority.
So a few questions....
1) Where do you see Brighton finishing realistically?
2) The highest you can see Brighton finishing?
3) The lowest?
4) How do you think Brentford will fare?
5) A short summary of your opinion on the club's upturn in fortunes over the last few years?
6) Would you like to take Will Grigg off of us (please)?
I appreciate any answer that comes my way,
thanks,
