Have we spent most weeks in the top two this season?

[Sussex Nomad]

I know there are some budding stato's out there and I was just interested to know if we've spent more time in the top two than any other club this season in the Championship?

 

[Icy Gull]

Yeah but we haven't played anyone decent yet!

Staying off the radar wasn't a bad thing, obviously we are well and truly on it now.

Unfortunately all that matters is being there after the Boro game.

Well yes of course I agree. I was just wondering if the stat would be correct. Boro holds 33k I believe, they have to give us 10% allocation? If this decides it there is going to be a huge bin fest for the 3.3k tickets.

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

I know we've been the team most at the top. Sadly we are not there now, but who knows?

Bookies look a bit more impressed as they have halved our odds to win the title in the last week. Mind you we are still 10/1 to win!

 

[portslade seagull]

We are very resilient and can see us getting wins where most don't expect them

 

[Thunder Bolt]

We haven't been outside of the top 6 all season.

Like they'd know. Were beating Burnley and Derby away and deserved our spanking v Boro. Not been out of the top six as said above and the franchise have done what to set alight the league this season? Helped us out a couple of times, that's about it.

I thought it was 10% or capped at 2,000 as a minimum for grounds bigger than 20,000. So could just be 2k!

 

[Albion 4ever]

We haven't been outside of the top 6 all season.

I think we were for about 2 hours as a result of a lunchtime kick off.

Is it? Even bigger bin fest then.

And this is totally true. We do have to "prove" ourselves.. We do this by winning games and getting promotion. If we want to prove we deserve to be in the top 2 then we have to beat teams to get into the top 2. This is called "proving"ourselves.

I think the match against Burnley is the third time this season we have played a 1st against second match. Probably wrong

Ipswich v Brighton - 1st v 2nd
Brighton v Boro - 1st v 2nd
Brighton v Burnley - 2nd v 1st

There could be more.

Ipswich v Brighton - 1st v 2nd
Brighton v Boro - 1st v 2nd
Brighton v Burnley - 2nd v 1st

There could be more.

Hull at the Amex, when we won 2-1, was also a 1st vs 2nd clash (and it was directly after the Ipswich game)

So they are quite right. 'We really do need to prove ourselves'.
