Brighton's Bitter Record: Why Wolves Have a Lock on the Seagulls
Okay, let's get this straight: Brighton and Hove Albion are a decent side, alright? They've got some good players, a decent manager, and their home games at the Amex are a real vibe. But there's one thing that's giving Brighton fans the blues: Wolves have their number.
It's not just a few close losses, either. Wolves have utterly dominated Brighton in recent years, racking up an embarrassing record for the Seagulls. The last time Brighton beat Wolves was back in 2019. Since then? Wolves have been on a roll, winning six of their last seven meetings.
It's enough to make you wonder if Brighton's players are secretly wearing a "Wolves" shirt under their kits. But it goes deeper than just bad luck.
Wolves just seem to have Brighton's tactics figured out. They've managed to neutralize Brighton's attacking threats, shut down their midfield, and generally make life miserable for the Seagulls. It's like they've got a secret weapon or something.
But the real question is, why is this happening?
One explanation might be that Wolves just have a knack for playing Brighton's style. Both teams like to possess the ball and control the game. But Wolves seem to have mastered that style to a higher degree, consistently outscoring and outplaying Brighton.
It's frustrating for Brighton fans, no doubt. But maybe this record is a wake-up call for Brighton. If they want to break the curse and truly compete with the big boys, they need to figure out how to beat Wolves. It's the only way they can truly reach their full potential.
So, what are Brighton going to do about it? Well, the Seagulls are a team with a lot of heart, so you know they'll be working hard to break this unwanted record. But until they figure out how to beat their "Wolves" curse, Brighton fans will have to hold their breath every time these two teams meet.
