If Rodney's international clearance has come through it's going to be a bit of a luxury having 3 strikers available for the game, I have a good feeling about today so come on you Seagulls!!!

Always a worry facing a time after two results like they've had, probability of a back lash is high. We need a positive result after the games yesterday so hopefully we will go for it. More likely a nervey, cagey affair with a tight draw.
