    They're defensively solid and well organised, their home form will be the key, same as it always is, and the signs for them are good

    They definitely aren't for me. The gulf in class between the top championship sides and the bottom half of the PL is massively over stated for me. Brighton and Newcastle will be fine IMO, even though they haven't invested much.

    Brighton are a well coached side, who's players have been working together along time. They proved that against West Brom this weekend, and I'd expect them to now kick on with their results from now on.

    Fair points.

    It's still very early if we're honest. We'll know more by Christmas.

    There's no goals in that Brighton side, they'll go down, I'd have my house on it. Vault me

    You don't know what you are talking about mate, if you think Huddersfield will stay up, but Brighton will go down as they have no goals in their team.

    Goal difference in the championship last season

    Brighton +34
    Huddersfield -2

    Huddersfield got off to a good start, as any team can on a wave of momentum, but I'd bet my house on it that they'll massively struggle from here on, and will end up going down.

    Brighton are a far better side, in attack and in defence, and at the end of 38 games that will be proven.

    Brighton didn't sign a striker their Championship stats don't mean a thing ffs, see the Geordies for details

    They'll go down. Fancy a flutter on it?

    Glen Murray will get goals, as he did last season.

    Who have Huddersfield signed a anyways? Tom Ince a player who score a lot less than Glen Murray in the Championship last year. Or that Mounie fella who has had an ok, and that being generous record in French football. But he's Benins star striker<laugh>

    Il take that bet all day long, what's the wager?

    He will get goals once he's fit again. They scored 3 without him at the weekend anyways, the German lad looked good who they signed in the summer.

    You can have an aviator of my choice for the whole of next season if you lose the bet.

    What a bargain! Just need to get a cheap flight to bloody Russia.

    £79 for the cheapest seats at a group game but locals can buy for small fraction of that so it's basically asking ordinary Russians to become touts and make a few quid out of it. Well done FIFA.

    Why in the **** would you go there anyway.
    The Russian mob have basically said they want to kill the English fans.
    And the Russian sports minister was like "Yeah, well, if Brits come over here, they know what to expect...."

    To watch the shower of ****e that is Enger-Land FC, i'd rather keep my arse virginity and my ability to have children intact.
    No way I would risk it to see Adam Lallana fall over and Gary Cahill get skinned and the players trudge off the pitch like some great injustice had befallen them.

    "No lads, you are just ****e!"
