I speak to a Brighton and Hove Albion fan ahead of the new League One season that kicks off next week.

As part of a new feature on the site over the next two weeks we will be talking to all 23 other clubs in League One about their sides chances this season.

As we respect the alphabet on Vital Stockport, we thought we would start off with Brighton & Hove Albion.

Name: Ollie Foulger

How long have you supported your team? 16 years

Five words to describe last season? Very promising for next season.

Best point of last season? The point away at Leeds, we drew 0-0 there towards the end of April.

Strength from last season? The two strikers worked brilliantly together and got us to the position we finished in the league. Glenn Murray and Nicky Forster.

Weakness of last season? The midfield, especially after selling club captain Dean Hammond to Colchester at the end of January. It went downhill from there.

Current terrace favourite in your side? Glenn Murray, the striker, or Michel Kuipers our goalkeeper.

One player you`d happily drive to his next club? Doug Loft, awful.

One thing you would tell your team`s manager? Sort out the midfield, especially the central two of the four. Oh, and the fact he`s my hero.

Young player to look our for this season? Tommy Elphick. 20 year old centre half.

Hope for this season? Automatic promotion!

Expectation for this season? Play-offs.

Who is going to win League One? Leeds United.

Who is going down? Millwall, Yeovil Town and Cheltenham Town.

Where will you finish? 4th
