  Ranting Poyet raises important points.

  @BarnesBrigade  www.amexnorthstand.com Gus Poyet having a rant? Surely not? Although this time I am in 100 percent agreement with his complaints. The possibility of the play offs is starting to loom closer, with five games to go, two points clear in 6th place, without sounding cliché again, i...

  Rollercoaster Week for the Seagulls

  www.amexnorthstand.com  @BarnesBrigade What a difference a week makes. From the feeling of ecstasy following Sunday's emphatic win over rivals Palace, to the last couple of days dreading the news that our beloved Gus may leave for Reading. Praise the Lord, this thankfully is not happening. A...

  Flying through the Seagulls news

  @BarnesBrigade  www.amexnorthstand.com  I think in the future I will not comment on promotion prospects, the past 3 games have made my previous blogs almost entirely redundant. Having stated that Middlesborough looked to be out of the hunt, they then went and beat Cardiff, for us I wrote that...

  The Long Road to Promotion...(Perhaps)

  @BarnesBrigade  www.amexnorthstand.com Having beaten Hull just ten days before, the trek to Cardiff on a Tuesday night was anticipated eagerly. Either we were to put up a fight, or just roll over to the leaders. At the close of the game, to come out 2-0 winners was certainly more than satisf...

  Seagulls Flying High? 

  @BarnesBrigade  www.amexnorthstand.com It has come to the stage in the season where we can ask ourselves ‘are the playoffs a reality or not?’. The underlying problem being that our performances are pretty much good enough, but our results are not. A prime example of this being the past week...

  Owls fly out on top

  @BarnesBrigade  www.amexnorthstand.com The trip up north to Sheffield proved, disappointing, yet eventful. Testosterone was flying about everywhere, on the pitch, on the sidelines and in the stands. A game which included 4 goals, a handful of yellow cards, 1 red card, and a touchline bust up ...

  Late goals, Arsenal, and Premier League Poyet. 

  The last piece I wrote I was moaning about us conceding late goals, fast forward to now, and I was rejoicing the fact that we somehow got an equaliser at Blackburn, about time that we went against the flow of the game and scored a goal! A nitty gritty point fought up north, and in complete ...

  Last Minute Blunders Prove Costly To Wasteful Brighton

  www.amexnorthstand.com  @BarnesBrigade Following our convincing home win against Derby the trip to Birmingham a week later looked treacherous but promising. I have upmost respect for the 1000+ Brighton fans that travelled up there, and it was unfortunate that they were not rewarded with a dese...

  Slick Seagulls expose Newcastle's weaknesses. 

  www.amexnorthstand.com  @BarnesBrigade Its quite satisfying booking my ticket for the upcoming game against Swansea or Arsenal, and it was all down to that brilliant performance against Newcastle. The New Year has continued to be profitable, and following our win against Ipswich, we took the g...

  New Year Cheer.

  www.amexnorthstand.com  @BarnesBrigade After a disappointing end to the year following a postponement of the game at Blackburn and a far from inspiring defeat against Watford, the Christmas cheer wasn't present amongst many fans. The old cliches of 'new year, new start' were being thrown about...

  Same old story

  www.amexnorthstand.com  @BarnesBrigade I feel every single time I write something commenting on a past game that I am saying the same thing over and over again. We do not take our chances, and if we want to move up the table we need to. The first half against Forest on Saturday we probably cou...

  The return of the forgotten men..Lua Lua...and dare i mention Vicente?

  www.amexnorthstand.com  @BarnesBrigade   Gus likes to know the fans have been entertained after a Brighton game, and although we didn’t come away with the 3 points at Charlton, It was indeed full of action and pretty much end to end, plenty of goalmouth action to keep both sets of fans happy. ...

  A dismal day as the Eagle's soar past the Seagulls.

  www.amexnorthstand.com  @BarnesBrigade I think its fair to say that Saturday was a complete and utter disaster. I have just about recovered to try and write something on it. From the moment we kicked off we were under pressure, perhaps it was the occasion that got to Dunk, unable to control ...

  An unpredictable Saturday ahead..

  Last Saturday at the end of 95 minutes of football against a newly relegated Bolton side, i was very happy, we'd come away with the 3 points, and deservedly so. Just one catch, in 'extra injury time' their equaliser ripped any happiness out of the game, with the last kick of the game it was c...

  Super slick Seagulls first half outclasses Terriers with no bite

  www.amexnorthstand.com  @BarnesBrigade Instead of 3 points at Wolves we got 3 goals for Poyet. Fast forward a week and this time we did bring the 3 points home. I think I will speak on behalf of all/most Brighton fans in saying that my reaction to the team was a little disheartening. Heari...

  3 Points for 3 years of Poyet and Taricco 

  www.amexnorthstand.com  @BarnesBrigade  Our trip to Wolves coincides with the 3 year anniversary of Gus and Tarrico's reign at Brighton. 10th November 2009 was the date Gus was unveiled to us Brighton fans, and since then things have got better and better. Who would've thought in 2009 we would...

  1 point from each game, 2 contrasting reactions.

  www.amexnorthstand.com  @BarnesBrigade I dont condone crime, but our daylight robbery up at Blackpool was brilliant. How we came away with a point i do not know, our goal (yes you read right we finally managed to score) was a mis-hit tap in. And thankfully after surviving a Blackpool on...

Frustrating because we deserved something from them, and in the Leicester game we should've had a point. If we hadn't been on this bad run, i can...

  www.amexnorthstand.com  @BarnesBrigade Thank goodness the International break is finally over, this particular break has been one of drama to say the least, from the farce of the 'roof' incident to the damn right outrageous racial abuse suffered by the U21's. In conclusion we will never kn...

  A much improved performance

  www.amexnorthstand.com  @BarnesBrigade I had mixed feelings about the Derby game, on the one hand i was so relieved at the end of the game, on the other a bit gutted. Last season we would've crumbled at the end, i was on the edge of my seat thinking we were going to concede any second, we s...

  Take note of Hammond
