ALBION are going goal crazy at the Amex in their push for promotion.
The 3-2 win against Bolton Wanderers followed a 3-0 victory in the previous game at home to Brentford.
It is the first time the Seagulls have scored three or more goals in successive matches at headquarters since March 2013, when Huddersfield were beaten 4-1 and Crystal Palace 3-0.
Chris Hughton’s No.2 Colin Calderwood said: “We look as if we can score goals. We got another three and that’s pretty encouraging.”
Albion also scored twice against Huddersfield last month to launch a hat-trick of home wins.
A fourth victory on the trot against Bolton has set them up for tomorrow night’s trip to leaders Hull and two more away games at Cardiff and Bristol City.
Calderwood said: “We are more or less where you’d want to be at this stage of the season. It’s encouraging that we’ve won three home games on the bounce. That’s great but we’ve got to win away from home. It’s something we spoke about pre-season.”
Jamie Murphy was delighted with his opener.
He also netted at the Macron Stadium this season – but was later sent off before his side were pegged back for a 2-2 draw.
Murphy said: “The last game against Bolton didn’t finish too well for me so it was nice to get the win and the goal.”
