Graham Potter delighted to secure ‘important’ survival for Brighton

Brighton and Hove Albion v Newcastle United – Premier League – Amex Stadium

Brighton boss Graham Potter was “delighted” to finally toast Premier League survival after his side ground out an uninspiring goalless draw at home to Newcastle.

Albion have been well placed to extend their top-flight adventure to a fourth campaign for a number of weeks but Potter had steadfastly refused to celebrate safety until it was mathematically certain.
