Brighton boss Chris Hughton happy for fans after Wolves draw

Brighton boss Chris Hughton hailed the away support for their 0-0 draw at Wolves.

The Seagulls moved three points clear of Cardiff City, who claimed a 2-0 victory at the Amex Stadium last Tuesday, and Hughton hopes the team's latest performance can trigger a return to form.

Hughton said, “The feeling in the changing room has been okay, and probably the reason for that is that we've been okay in this division for long periods, in regards to the position we're in.

“We have a great group of supporters that travel in their thousands for every game, so we always give them the respect that they deserve.

“But we've been on the back of two big defeats — particularly the last one, because it was a team that's close to us in the division, so I think that hurt us.

“Amongst that hurt, you wanted to see a reaction, so there's probably a bit of relief. You don't become a bad team overnight, you always get an opportunity to put it right and this will hopefully set us up for what will be four very difficult games."
