BHA flagging in 19th entertain Middlesbrough in 5th, at The Amex on Saturday. With no league wins in our last 7 league outings, failing to win any of our last 3 home matches & only one league victory at The Amex this season, the pressure will certainly be notched up if Albion fail to beat The Teesiders. Boro could go top with a win, whilst we could climb to 14th, or as low as 21st. Winning 4 & drawing 2 of their last 6 league matches, I suspect Middlesbrough will be favourites.
Our record against Middlesbrough is pathetic. 9 wins, 11 draws & a whacking 22 defeats! If there was ever a time to start putting the record straight, surely Saturday it is?
Looking at past form - our home record against them is shocking. We have failed to beat Boro in any of our 3 home matches at The Amex. One draw & 2 defeats. Not that going further back is much better. The last time we beat them in Sussex was back in 1990 (a league 2 game when we won 1-0 in front of 5,504). At least the crowd will be higher this time round!
In the subsequent 6 matches in Sussex, we have won none, drawn 2, lost 4. Scoring 5 goals with the opposition 12 goals in this sequence.
So will the Seagulls find their missing fire power, or more, same old? As ever you decide.
