No. Another eminently winnable game would go begging.

We're good enough to not be settling for a draw at home vs Fulham.

If we asked for a point against every team we’d have 38 points.

Maybe we’d survive, maybe we wouldn’t, year on year.

If we don’t go for three points at home against #teamslikeFulham then who should we be?

A point is a bad result in a 3 points for a win league ... unless pre match you are more than twice as likely to lose than win

The prize is huge. An 8 point gap on the bottom three and possibly 15th place.

Lots of points to be had in February so I say go for the win.

Usually I do take the draw when such questions are asked.

But I am so hacked off with lower placed teams repeatedly rocking up at the Amex and riding off with a point or 3 that it simply MUST be a bhafc win tonight.

Would not "take" a draw. I want a win.

But a draw, if it happens, would not be the end of the world, although the match thread may disagree.

Obviously we need wins and points, but there are plenty of games to go. Good not to lose today though!

This!

Happy to be corrected on this, but I don’t remember many lower placed teams leaving the Amex with 3 points this season under Potter. Perhaps last season with Southampton & Palace but really can’t think of any other occasions under the present gaffer.

I’m not confident like others about this plenty of games to go, we won three in half a season. We need 23 points from somewhere let’s pray for three tonight.

This treacherous home record WILL end at some point. It simply has to. Tonight is as good of an opportunity as any to set this straight. So no.

would of gone yes but wouldn't be happy with it.

Not trusting potter to get a result at home for us. Sort of game we get turned over.

Do hope we turned a corner though so prob wouldnt take it as things stand

I always look forward to a Seagulls game , but i`m like a kid on Christmas Eve over tonight`s game . Last night set us up for the perfect storm so to speak . Win tonight , and we will , we put Newcastle behind us , we go 15 ahead of Sheffield Utd if they lose at Man U , 9 clear of WBA after their battering last night and 5 ahead of Fulham even with their game in hand . Tonight is not a must win game , but it is a turning point game , bring it on . :albion2:

We need to win and get our season back on track. Enough of the draws against the bottom teams, we're at home, we're better than that

You could say that, but you could say that there is not a lot in it.

I do believe we should go for it, but I don't want to let them have the full 3 points either.

Exactly this. I will be worried if we lose, disappointed but ok if we draw and delighted if we win.

Obviously we should win, but to say Fulham have a lot to play for is an understatement.

I voted go for it.
