vs



Football league championship

The Reebok stadium

Kick off:- 3.00p.m

Match Officials:- Referee NIGEL MILLER
Robert Atkin and Wayne Grunnill
Fourth Official Jeremy Simpson

Can the Albion up their game after a their 0-0 at Bristol City?
And will we keep our unbeaten run going, and really cement our play off spot?
Will the dagger be unsheathed and cut through the Bolton rearguard?
Has Leo fought off his tiredness, and can he bang them in like the Hudders game and soften the blow of losing C.M.S?
Will Bolton continue their 7 game unbeaten run, winning their last 4 on the bounce?
I'm gonna stay positive and go for a 1-0 victory. Mr Ulloa banging in the winner.

You can't beat a good, early start. Seagulls Player playing up again. Anyone else having problems?

Big day.

Hope we are still in the top 6 come 5pm

 

[patchamalbion]

think i'd take a point now to be honest - they have been decent at home recently and would be good to keep the unbeaten run going.

then again if we take a point in the manner that we did at the home game i'll be fuming!!

 

[KZNSeagull]

Suspect the general feeling is that we will do well to get a point. This was the general feeling when we went to Baadiff.

We will, therefore, win today 2-1.

Mistakenly bet on Brighton 3-1 at HT. So uhm....come on! (100-1 though!)

 

[skipper734]

They really like their supporters up there. Free online programme, buy a home shirt get an away shirt free. It's true things are cheaper up North!

Last Season
N/A

Head-to-head
• David Ngog's last-gasp strike earned Bolton a 1-1 draw with Brighton at the Amex Stadium just under four months ago.
• Brighton were left to rue missed chances, as they dropped points for the first time in five league clashes with the Trotters spanning 33 years.
• Bolton have never beaten the Seagulls in a home league encounter.
Bolton
• A fifth successive victory would see ninth-placed Bolton achieving their longest winning streak since December 2006 in the Premier League.
• Dougie Freedman's players are also on the joint best current winning run in home Championship games of four, last dropping points at the Reebok against Millwall on 12 January. They are one of four clubs still unbeaten at home in this division in 2013.
• Andy Lonergan and Chris Eagles could both make their 250th English league appearance, while Kevin Davies is set to complete his 350th in the league in Bolton colours.
Brighton
• Brighton consolidated their recently acquired top-six placing by extending their unbeaten sequence to six (4W, 2D), although they were held to a fourth goalless draw of the season away to bottom club Bristol City on Tuesday.
• The Seagulls are the only club to currently have the double distinction of not losing a Championship match from a winning position, nor winning one from a losing predicament.
• Gus Poyet's men have lost fewer matches on the road than any other club in the second tier (four).

 

[KJP]

Very nervous about this game, the type of game where if we concede early we will get done by 3 or more goals

 

[TheJasperCo]

Should be a good 'un, just hoping we can hold out for a point at least, but that's easier said than done.

This. I thought we were going to get spanked down at Cardiff, and I think we will struggle today, so we will undoubtedly win.

Reading through a couple of the threads on the BW forums, they seem really pleased that CMS wont be playing, but I dont think they realise, he hasnt figured so much since Leonardo Ulloa signed, and if he has a good game, they are in for a big shock haha...they consider it a massive game, and seem genuinly excited.
Getting the vibe myself now, all the games are important.

 

[Steve Foster]

2-0 defeat I am afraid. Just can't see us getting anything from this one.
