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

Yep on a Sunday. Battle of the seasides. A Wilkins debacle .

I am leaving the house in 75 minutes. Quite nervous, but looking forward to this...

Geestar · Apr 21, 2014

7 nil to the Albion!

CorgiRegisteredFriend · Apr 21, 2014

Nervous too- has turned a pretty average bank holiday into a nail biting, anxiety driven day - with the added excuse for beer.

01.04.1995 Brighton 2-2 Blackpool - Remember going to this one when i was 14. Around the same time of year we witnessed 4 second half goals when we beat Wrexham 4 nil and a last gasp pea-roller from Junior McDougald to beat Hull 1 nil. We played some decent stuff during that period as we were safely in mid-table. Birmingham ran away with it that season. Our 3-3 at St Andrews was a corker. The 1-1(Nogan) at the Goldstone against Oxford earlier that season springs to mind as well. Byrne playing for the opposition. We were top 6 at the time. It's funny what you can remember when it comes to football.

Let's put in a Wrexham-like performance this arvo boys. In the first half mind! :albion2:

KZNSeagull · Apr 21, 2014

Quietly confident. Same as Charlton really - get an early goal and we will win handsomely. I will go for 3-0 again.

What's the Southampton-Spurs score?

Beach Hut · Apr 21, 2014

It will be our day, today.

severnside gull · Apr 21, 2014

Leaving now
Nervous but quietly confident. Who said football is just a game? :lolol:

Blue Valkyrie · Apr 21, 2014

Time to Tonk to be honest.

Let's not do a Forest who had a man sent off 1st half v Blackpool and lost in the 94th minute to Blackpool's only attack of the match.

BensGrandad · Apr 21, 2014

Time for our strikers to really show their worth and Ulloa to overtake Austin for goals and win my son a bet.

Cheeky Monkey · Apr 21, 2014

Very excited for today. "Everest, Everest, Everest, Everest, E-ver-est"

Brighton v Blackpool 15:00
Burnley v Wigan 15:00
Ipswich v Bournemouth 15:00
Leeds v Nottm Forest 17:15

Ideally then Burnley and Leeds will win, and the Ipswich-Bmouth game will end in a draw.

KJP · Apr 21, 2014

Surely we want Burnley to lose so they need a win against Ipswich next week

Or more importantly, we win the next 3.
All the other games would be immaterial then
