Huddersfield Town v Brighton & Hove Albion - WakeyTerrier - 19-10-2014
Apologies that this isn't up to much but work is hectic right now and I seem to be spending my weekends in the pub
The mighty Terriers entertain the Seagulls who make the long midweek trip to West Yorkshire from East Sussex, who ever dreams these midweek fixtures up needs shooting!
Town are fast becoming a form team in this division having picked up 10 from the 12 points available but I'm afraid to say that will all come to a end on Tuesday for the sole reason that we have the chance to go above Leeds United...we always seem to cock up when that chance comes along.
Meanwhile BHA have had a poor start to the season and are currently 20th in the Championship with 11 points and surprisingly have registered just 2 League wins this season, the last win coming back on the 23rd August over Bolton(Leeds are the only other team they have beat)
Last time out
Town beat a dreadful Blackpool team 4-2
Meanwhile Brighton went down 1-2 to Middlesboro
The last time we met
1-1
Wakeys starting XI and prediction

A dreadful 1-1 game..let's hope I'm wrong
RE: Huddersfield Town v Brighton & Hove Albion - EastLondonTerrier - 19-10-2014
I go to university at sussex and the AMEX is right next to our campus so I always chat to a few brighton fans on the train home whenever I come back from lectures or studying. This saturday they said they got absolutely smacked by boro and a lot don't seem very optimistic about playing us so hopefully we can take advantage of playing them at this time as their midfield always seem to boss us whenever we play them and their full back bruno salter is top top class. Said they desperately miss ulloa up front (who wouldn't) so very optimistic we can at least get a point this week, especially with the form of our frontline Bunn Scanz Holt et al. Hammill doesn't look like he can get into that team even when fit and with radi overcoming an unspecified 'personal issue' and nakhi not even a guaranteed starter now, our bench is starting to look like it has a lot more options than we did before.

I'm pretty confident about Tuesday, although as Wakey points out as soon as a chance to move above Leeds crops up we blow it, so we'll see. Brighton have made a poor start and Hyppia seems to be struggling to get results, they won't be bringing many fans either, so lets take advantage, we could actually move significantly up the table if we win and other results are favourable.
The reverse fixture is also on a night Wakey.

Surprised at their poor start. Thought they would've been up the top end again.
Hope we can carry on the momentum we have going at the moment.

Craig Mackail-Smith exists again, as far as I'm aware. Beyond that, their momentum seems to be evaporating. Interesting season, this, for Brighton.

hahaha very funny wakey! I can't lie it's helped my dad out when we can park on the campus on match days for free as I'm a student and avoid all the queuing and park and ride malarkey! Always gripes me walking past it as not only do they have our kit but they bloody copied our stadium to the letter and just filled the corners in

Methinks the forecast of a cool and slightly stiff breeze and a bit of drizzle could have a bit of an effect on the game tonight. Still, if we keep it down and run at 'em like we did on Saturday we should be OK. Noah's going to be parking his ark up at Red Doles Locks tonight just in case.
Just noticed that Brighton are the only club to lose at Brum in Brum's last 24 home games. They lost 1-0 on 16th August.
