Bournemouth were poor tonight, but still won, like Champions do.

A hard fought win tonight but not particularly convincing. Mind you Norwich scraped a win here on Good Friday. Have done the double over Brighton this season, both games live on sky, and both games Brighton probably deserved a bit more out of.


Unfortunately my experience is that as stressful as this part is, the battle to survive in the PL is even more stressful.

One more game down, four to go. Come on.

Thanks for everything Pothas. You'll be missed. My nickname for you was apt and I will never forget it. For the last time, arise Sir Nic.

Would love to see Brentford win promotion, preferably by sneaking 2nd spot. Just to see if Mark Warburton will be re-instated as manager next season and the reaction if he isn't.

I guess you're right, although if we do make it, we'll be amongst the favourites to go down, so the pressure may not be so great.

Southampton as a bigger club would have fancied their chances of surviving in their first year back so that in itself brings pressure.

Another game, and the deadlock between the top hasnt moved at all. All top 4 won, and now a 7 point gap to 5th.... Wolves losing puts a dent in their hopes.

No one can make a mistake now

The last gasp Norwich winner was particularly galling, could have done with one slip up out the 3 and they would have been my choice as they're home to Borough next Friday.

Another defeat despite playing against 10 men for most of the game. At least the rest of the bottom four all lost.

I just hope we can get back to winning ways in the next match. It's not good for Jeff Stelling's health.

Trust me it's just as stressful at the top end of the Championship, I know I've done both in the last few years.

Me too, I'd be gutted for you and Jeff if you don't survive after everything that's happened.

Staying in the football league is far bigger than going up into the EPL, in my opinion.
