[GoldWithFalmer]

I hope we play well,that at this stage is all i ask,like last week...if at all possible....

 

[perseus]

I have nver been so sure of 1-0 to the Albion. But whether rhat will be the good at the end, I don't know.

Headed goal at the north end for the Albion. I am one of the few that does not mind Barnes leading the attack, as long as Buckley is in the side and Lualua and Vicente are on the bench.

Hammond a definite starter for me. I am tempted to put him in the back four though, playing a role like Luiz does for Chelsea.

 

[pornomagboy]

Hoskins to start up front and score 2 and the dagger to come on in 71st min and score a free kick top corner 3-1 to the good guys

and so close

Head-to-head
• Brighton and Derby have each won 11 of their 25 previous league meetings.
• Derby are seeking a first goal in five Championship matches against the Seagulls; this season's reverse fixture was a goalless draw.
• The south coast side are unbeaten in five league games against the Rams (W2, D3), since Derby's 3-2 victory at the Withdean Stadium in February 2005, when the victors also had Ian Taylor sent off.
Brighton
• Brighton, three points outside the play-offs and boosted by the FA Cup victory over Newcastle, are looking for their first back-to-back league wins since mid-September.
• The Seagulls have not lost a league game in which they held the lead, but are the only club without a home win against a top-half club in the Championship.
• Gordon Greer could make his 100th league appearance in Brighton colours.
Derby
• Derby are equal on points and immediately below Brighton, and are looking for three straight wins in all competitions, having scored a total of eight goals in defeating Middlesbrough in the Championship (3-1) and Tranmere in the FA Cup (5-0), both at Pride Park.
• But Nigel Clough's men have only managed one win in seven away league games, losing five of them.
• The Rams are the joint lowest scorers on the road in the Championship, having netted just 11 goals in 13 games, as have Ipswich.

Sitting next to the bitch, sorry beach, in Trincomalee willing on the Albion. We've got a decent recent record against Nigel Clough's lot so 3-1 to the good guys

Who have Derby got in their team, apart from a white-haired midfielder called Hughes (? name ?) who seems lightweight? And someone called Jacobs.

And there is Theo Robinson upfront. Jamie Ward.

That'll be the lightweight 17 year old Hughes. The most highly rated young player in the country.

Connor Sammon is pretty good, scored a few goals in the Premier League for Wigan
