Win and we go above Man Utd, and create a nice little buffer over the teams at the bottom.

However I can see this potentially being another frustrating game if we don’t take our chances. I believe we will dominate possession but unless we get more than 1 goal I will be very nervous to the inevitable sucker punch.

Come on lads. We have to give someone a tonking at some point. Let’s take our chances tonight and have a nice cigars out 3-0 victory.

Seagulls!
