    Brighton looking ominously strong, could do with them having a string of injuries.

    They don't.

    They're faultering now.

    I've got a friend who's a Brighton fan. He explained they drew back to back games before the international break (one they were winning 2-0 and the other against ten man Wolves). They then beat 10 man Leeds 2-1 and have beaten Bristol City 2-1 now too. He said how they've started throwing away the first goal in each game and are struggling to pick up wins against poor sides/10 men sides.

    I think as soon as their first loss comes, it'll be followed by 3-4 more within the next month or two.

    I think they'll not fall by the way side, but I can definitely see them dropping out of the top 2.

    The season we went up, Blackpool smashed the league the first couple of months. That didn't last.

    I think the same will happen with Brighton. Though unlike Blackpool hey'll probably still be top 6.

    Only one team has a better goal difference than us (1) , and only one team with the same... Don't think our strikers are doing too bad....

    As the table stands today, Brighton have only played 2 teams in the top 10 (us and Cardiff).

    That stat probably has real meaning now that all clubs have played a dozen games.

    Next check point is 23 games, let's see where they are then.

    I think it is our defence that is making our goal difference so flattering.

    Perhaps the teams that they have played are not in the top 10 because Brighton beat them?

    Possibly but that's why I wrote this second sentence in the same post:

    I dont understand. Brighton might have already played the next best 12 teams in the division.
