It's very odd how many opposition fans come on here. Do people outside Brighton just not have a life?

Their arrogance is amusing. Apparently we're workmanlike but not much else. Funny how we managed to finish 15 points ahead of them. What does that make them then? It will be a tough game, and we may well lose, but their dismissal of the qualities of a team who finished so many points ahead of...

Absolutely. Three big games and we've had bad decisions from referees in all of them. How these guys are among the top referees in this country is beyond me.

Can't believe two people voted for red card. For me, Stephens wins the ball cleanly and Ramirez's goes into his leg. No foul. Interestingly, there were no shouts of 'Off' from the Boro fans, which usually follows almost any slightly bad foul. Suggests, for all their protestations since, Boro...

In fairness, I'm sure you can understand our anger tonight. Probably best to keep away from here for a day or so. I genuinely believe we were cheated today by a shocking decision (a view backed up by the Football League Show) and at a point where we were on top and pushing for the lead. I'm...

Most decent fans of Boro would be embarrassed by the way Ramirez reacted towards Mike Dean, then has to be stretchered off and finally (miraculously) he recovers to celebrate on the pitch after the game. If I was the FA, I'd think about banning Ramirez for his reaction to the yellow card coming...

It's reasonably fair but not a true reflection of the first game. What none of the Middlesbrough fans seem to be able to grasp is the fact that we had half our team out injured. Their fans will be surprised with how different this team. Sadly, I think their players will be more prepared than that!

Agree. No idea what he's talking about. Does he mean we spent more money than anyone else so deserve promotion?

Get a life. Why do you care what one person writes about Burnley on a football forum. I can't believe how many Burnley fans are sad enough to spend time on here.

Glad it is a Premier League referee and not Pawson. Hopefully it won't be decided by the referee.

It's amazing he's not a big time journalist yet. Lucky for us though. We get to see his musings instead,

Five years out of 37. Yes, it's obviously a conspiracy.

The South Downs? Serious question, why do you bother replying to such a ridiculous thread. If my team had just been promoted to the Premier League, the last thing I would do is to go and gloat on another team's forum.

As you seem to be ignoring others asking, where has your 11 point lead with a game in hand gone since January? Pressure is totally on you. Expectation is that you will get the result. If you do, fair enough. You've spent so much on that squad that I would probably have taken them up. It's not...

What a pathetic human being you must be. Seriously. You have nothing better to do on a Tuesday than this. You beat a team with half our players out at Christmas. Even without Dunk we're much stronger now. None of Knockaert, Skalak, Rosenior, Goldson and Baldock played then.But don't let facts...

If you believe this piece from their local paper, we'll be too busy "quaking in our boots" from their atmosphere to have any idea how the games goes. Good to see they are already talking about intimidating the referee rather than winning the game with their skill. Very odd article.

Completely agree with this. If we don't go up, I'll be gutted. However, keep this team together and add another striker and a couple more signings and we'd have every chance of being up the top again. Even if we lose one or two players, I have faith in the current setup to go out and buy the...

One bonus point and possible points for a draw if we can hold on. Not very inspiring against the team who has finished last in the Championship for the last three years. Don't think Sussex will be going up this season!

All teams have 'what ifs' during a season. Games they should have won but then forget about the games they should have drawn/lost but won instead. There's no point focusing on it. The only 'what if' for me is where would we be if we didn't have that horrendous injury list over Christmas...

Agree with that. After a poor run of form (and over the top abuse he received), it would be a perfect way to confirm promotion.
