    Brighton really are tinpot, attendance 6200 :lol: :lol: We got more against MK/Argyle and we're a smaller club :shock: We looked in complete control of the game up until the sending off, Brighton offered very little and looked a shadow of themselves from last year (I'm including the league game in that review). They hardly pressed when we had 10 men till the last 15 minutes either. It certainly wasn't backs to the wall stuff ala Barnsley on Saturday.

Despite what Beagrie and Nicholas say? :shock: Are they the Sky pundits slagging us off? 7 unbeaten, 5 in the league.. I'm not paying much attention to them :D I don't think we will win the league, or even come close. But I think the foundations are a lot more solid, no loanees who don't care about the club, purely players who want to play for us this year.

    good to hear that Watson continues to impress,and that Kelly looked good again. and that mendes might not be a complete chump. good run out for the back up players, amazing to win with that back 4 at the end. im becoming more and more impressed with stam and this team.

Just the newspaper making a story out of nothing.
