This includes first game of the season, international breaks and including today, bearing in mind the majority of the team were rested.

Fortunately we only have one more game like this on 1st April, coming after a two week break.

Brighton doesn't like Deepdale. It's nothing to do with breaks, but everything to do with venue. Hoodoos and jinxes have just as much validity as other theories.
Just to warn you in advance, we never do well at Oakwell either.

I never conform to this way of thinking, it's usually a totally different team, probably a different manager, that club may not have played there for years due to being in different leagues.
There is no reason why these hoodoos and jinxes should exist,except statistics, like today at Preston, no matter how hard I try and fight it the stats point out that clubs do have grounds they always get poor results at, it's quite spooky.

Yes, it is certainly a pattern.

The next one is the 9 day break between Cardiff and Huddersfield ( assuming the 1st team isn't played in the cup ).
