** BHA v Millwall ** - Score Predictor

[Steve Foster]

BHA (1 solitary win in our last 16 league matches) meet Millwall who are nearly as pitiful as us with ( 1 solitary win in their last 15 league matches). With only 2 points between the teams, it is paramount that the Seagulls avoid defeat. A win & we could climb to 20th (at least for 24 hours).

As for our woeful manager, his latest defeat against Derby, extends his wretched form to 3 league wins in 33 consecutive league matches over his current & former managership. Looking at his total performances for Albion (including cup games) 5 wins out of 24, gives him a win ratio of 20.83%, statistically our third worse manager in the modern game, with Case at 18.97% (11/53) & Wood 15.38% (2/13) - but they were managers when we were in dire straights in the lower leagues & the club in peril. Perhaps, Hyypia will be gone by Friday night? Perhaps Holloway will be gone by Friday night?

So, can Friday night's game be the turning point for us? Historically we have the slight upper hand with 36 wins, 19 draws & 33 defeats & haven't lost against The Lions (home or away) in our last 6 meetings. All previous 3 meetings at The Amex have ended in draws.

[Felpham Seagull]

its time he walked as far as he can

 

[Seagull over Canaryland]

Ordinarily I would punt on a 2-1 win for the good guys. I still hope for an Albion win but that might just defer the inevitable. So this one is a conundrum.

On the one hand I want to see a decent response from the Albion after yesterday. We need points and fast.

A defeat by Millwall would be very hard to accept. That would also mean another humiliation from Holloway at The Amex - and on live TV. Worse still give Holloway the perception that he has administered the coup de grace to another Albion manager. However I am starting to feel that a bit of short term pain might be worth it as a catalyst for managerial change.

A draw would probably be the worst result - ok it would bring us a precious point - but not really resolve anything.

 

[brightonmark1234]

any win i dont care what the score is and i feel its the biggest game for us at the amex for ages

 

[brightonmark1234]

need to win nothing less then that is good enough

 

[Luke93]

5-1!

 

[Goring Gull]

1-1 another draw I'm afraid

 

[SimplyBrighton]

Now, I'm gonna be realistic here, I'm going for a 3-2 win with solly, bent, and dunk scoring a goal each with a penalty for the lions and and a Hughes own goal in the 1st minute

 

[Blue Valkyrie]

Albion 1 - Millwall 4

 

[portslade seagull]

Can't see beyond a draw I'm afraid ... 1-1

 

[Fat Langers]

I'm desperately, desperately trying to stay optimistic. So I'm going for 3-1 to us. Us to score first and then them to equalise, in the first half. Then us coming out and burying them by another 2.

 

[Napper]

1-0 us

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

1-1

 

[Ralphingtonpuss]

3-0 albion

 

[Withdean and I]

Bhafc 1 Millwall 1

 

[Binney on acid]

7 all doesn't appear to be an option ? !!

 

[Eeyore]

I genuinely think that we will win this one. But it is unlikely to be pretty.

 

[Dolph Ins]

After reading all the doom and gloom on here it is interesting to see 47 people think we will win or draw and only 7 think we will loose. What does that mean?

 

[nipponseagull]

if he's still in charge, a 2-1 reverse I fear. If he's gone then 2-0 us !! C'mon Tony you see the problem ??

 

[Coldeanseagull]

3-0 to us, regardless who is in charge
