Oscar Garcia has praised the Brighton & Hove Albion fans for their support during a struggling start to the Championship campaign.

The Seagulls have won just three of their first 11 games this season, which includes today's 3-1 defeat at home to Nottingham Forest.

"I'm proud of how we are playing," PA quotes the Spaniard as saying. "It's significant that the ground is full and I'm proud of the fans and the way they supported the team all the time despite the bad result.

"I'm also proud to be the coach of Brighton. The fans support the players and the team. They know we play attractive football but the black point is we don't score."

Brighton are currently 14th in the table.
