It amuses me no end the sheer number of Boro fans who appear to be judging us on that performance in December. I hope that continues into next weekend

Yep, I'd not be bothered playing a team that have won their last five games, and scored twelve goals with just one in reply in their last three games.

Which is what we want the team to think too. Let them think all they have to do is turn up and see us roll over
Middlesborough were the best team this year at the Amex (apart from us). They were bigger,faster and better on the day. They played us at the hēight of our injury crisiw. We had 8 players injured including fringe players. Only 5 players from that match will start. They are in for a surprise.

Winning more is all well and good, but they've lost 9. That is the same as Burnley have lost in our last 2 seasons in the Championship.

The misspelling is wonderfully timed!
Just teasing honest!...I agree with everything you've written and you're right about us being susceptible to set pieces. If Rosenior has to come off then I will also worry about which Bong turns up as the sub. The one at the beginning of the season please rather than the one on Saturday.
And five of our six new starters have scored in the last five games (the odd one out being Rosenior). And we'll have Sidwell, another recent scorer, on the bench.

You know my posts by now, there is almost always 1 typo per 10 words. 1 typo in 5 with alcohole.

Sorry dude, as you were!
That is splendid.
"You know what he's like when he's drunk."
"No?"
"Oh, he's an utter alcohole."

It isn't just Boro fans. I think most fans in this league saw that 0-3 and thought "Ah, there we go. Brighton back to being Brighton."
Nobody considered our injury list. And even more shocking, nobody has checked their opinion in the wake of our bursting back into contention.
Football. Gotta love it.

TBH they trounced us, deserved it, best team at Falmer for a long time. No questions there.
Need to go off and do some more pelvic floor exercises.

Nobody other than Westham had had a better start to a season at this level either since the War...so it was very disappointing not to beat the Hammers record but share it we must...

They trounced a version of us. We must have had 60% of our first team out injured. I'm not denying they were a good side, they absolutely were, they still are, but the team they played in December is a shadow of the team they'll be playing next weekend.

It wasn't just the injuries though, Murphy and Hemed were lacking any kind of form and others (notably Kayal and Stephens) were knackered through sheer volume of games. We're such a different proposition now.
