Think we'll sneak this one 2-1.

Whitti Steve and Tarka to spend the whole match running around the upper tier shouting "bogeys" :)

Anyway, we'll win this. 2-1

Recently they've done OK away from home.
We'll be without Ricketts, who is our best and most dangerous player.
Nicky Forster is sure to score.
1-1.

I think Brighton are one of those even poorer sides than us who will help us stay above the relegation frame, and I reckon this will be one of those games where we'll get a narrow win.

2-1 to us then - and please try not to fall over with the shock of reading that prediction from me! :D

I don't expect much from this season but we simply cannot afford to lose to this lot. However, they are probably better than their league position suggests, and they do have some decent firepower in Murray, Fleetwood and Forster.

2-2 draw.

I fear retribution after the nine man victory at their place

1-2 Gilmartin OG in the 99th minute (Ince dropped due to his frame of mind following bid from Brentford)

A paltry 3473 in attendance

Brighton game at Northampton called off leaves the Seagulls with 1 league win in 11outings .

We could get a double hear but I really don’t give a flying 4x about the game or the result to be honest. If it wasn’t for meet in up with AJ, Evo, Tape et al then I don’t think I would bother going despite having a season ticket.

I cannot see us winning the match but hope to be presently surprised 4-0 to Brighton.

No mate, there is NO chance of me going. Anyway, even if I was inclined to attend a game, my work is much too important and far too plentiful this month, and the deadline for nearly all of it is 31st January.

I'm going for Walsall P-P Brighton, given the weather forecast for the rest of the week.

If that's the case then I hope it gets called off in good time rather than as a last minute thing.
I would say it'd be harsh to make the Brighton fans travel up before sending them back home, but after last season's experience at the Whitdean, maybe that'd just be quite funny. :D

a boring 1-0 win, goal in first half and then they game will descend into a tennis match of hoofs.

Nicholls to score

couldnt give a stuff about brighton, the way they treat away fans is a joke. Need bloody binocoulars.

I fully expect this game to be postponed but if not then we will only field 8 players this time to give Brighton a fighting chance. 1-0 to the Super Saddlers (Pride of the Midlands)

Dull 1-1 draw...Walsall to take the lead early on from a corner and Brighton to concede in the last 5 minutes.
