Something not right with Brighton this season, player sales catching up with them?

Following their fans criticism of us for our supposed play acting, their players seem to be pretty good at it themselves.

Not a phrase I'd usually utter but "C'MON PALACE!!"

Lots of empty seats at their big game

Thanks Palace, that's us moved up to eighth.

[Colton F.C.]

Looking up the table I see that Citeh are only 3 points ahead of us. We could overtake them next week!  A good win for United please.

No thx.  Can't stand United.  Hoping for a big City win, a thrashing hopefully.....

So we can theoretically catch City, but you would rather see City win.

That is such a typical Man United game.  Get a penalty in the last few minutes and then score the winner in the dying minutes 

So many crazy games this year with teams in the bottom-up setting and beating teams at the top.  Just crazy.

[ffc73]

Not crazy, brilliant IMO.  It should be how a competitive competition should be.

This PL season feels like being in the Championship where every team can beat each other.

[Angus Telford]

Said on another thread, there are numerous clubs suffering once-in-a-decade crisis periods. Man City, Man Utd, Spurs, arguably Wolves, Everton, Palace and West Ham, and even Newcastle are substantially underperforming. It's like a parting of the seas for the remainder (Fulham / Bournemouth / Forest / Brentford / Brighton) to steam in and take those 4th -7th European places.

[SP]

Saints already three down to Spurs after 14 minutes with some fans leaving. Saints then have a midweek League Cup game before they play us. Feels like their manager may've departed before we play them?

[love4ffc]

Chelski v Bees I would take a draw but prefer Chelski to win.  Don't want the Bees to get any points and don't really see us catching Chelski. 

[filham]

Feels so good being in the top half of the table but make no mistake it is going to be tough to hold that position.

I'd prefer it if they sack him after our game. How many times have we  been between by poor sides who faced us with a new manger!

[Lighthouse]

Palace have lost once in the last nine matches. Not sure who that was against. 

[rusty shackleford]

If West Ham win tonight... we should move up to 7th?

[btffc]

If West Ham win tonight... we should move up to 7th?

If they win by 2 or more we move up to 7th. If they win 1-0 we move up to 7th. 2-1 we are tied for 7th. 3-2, 4-3, etc then we stay 8th on goals scored.
