Brighton "Ones to Watch" from TangerineTV

 

[Soulman]

Blackpool striker Ricardo Fuller and defender Kirk Broadfoot (both knee) are out as is forward Robert Earnshaw, who has a calf problem.

Jack Robinson will be assessed while caretaker-boss Barry Ferguson should start despite suffering cramp.

 

[Mackenzie]

Blackpool will be fighting for their lives, I hope the players minds are concentrated today.

 

[StonehamPark]

I don't get this..

Brighton
• Brighton are unbeaten in their last five games, winning two.
• Brighton have kept 19 clean sheets in the league so far this season - the most in the Championship.
• Brighton have won only one of their last three home games, losing the other two.

 

[Paddy B]

I don't get this..

Not difficult, we are unbeaten in 5 games overall (1 home and 4 away) but have lost 2 out of the last 3 at home

 

[Everest]

I don't get this..

It's simple.
We have played 4 away games in the last five - we are unbeaten in all of those 5.
The two home defeats were before that.

 

[Ernest]

I've got a BAD feeling about today

I'm hoping there's a live stream available so I can watch it. Otherwise I'll have to sign up for Seagulls Player again I guess booo!

[Peter Grummit]

I don't get this..

4 of the last 5 games have been away. Blackburn (3-3); Barnsley (0-0); Leicester (4-1); Huddersfield (1-1).

Simples.

Nervous. It's crunch time.

 

[Beach Hut]

Nervous. It's crunch time.

Why nervous, we are in a very good position and our form is better than most.

 

[7:18]

I remember that 3-0 defeat to them at Withdean painfully well. Wasn't it on TV, inexplicably?

Yes, Andrew Whing's debut...I came on here afterwards and claimed he would be a good play for us, was really impressed with him etc...got slaughtered!

 

[Triggaaar]

Why nervous, we are in a very good position and our form is better than most.

Not nervous because of low expectations, nervous because it's important.

 

[Beach Hut]

Hopefully we will see Will Buckley at some point today.

One of the defining games of the season.
