Achieving a perfect 180 with three consecutive hits of 60 may bring satisfaction to Luke Littler and his team, but for Brighton and Hove Albion, it highlights the rollercoaster ride of their time in the Premier League.
That's because their defeat to Crystal Palace on Sunday afternoon has brought their record over their past 180 Premier League games into perfect balance.
Brighton's win-draw-loss record pleasing for anal retentivesWe presume TNT Sports were going for the darts angle when they put that stat together, but yes: Brighton's record over their past 180 games is won 60, drawn 60, lost 60.
That figure goes back to their 1-1 draw away to Sheffield United in February 2020, the Seagulls' third season in the Premier League.
Brighton have balanced out finishing 15th that season and 16th the following year with rising to 9th in 2021/22 and 6th in 2022/23.
Last season they finished 11th and were almost as even as it was possible to get, with 12 wins, 12 draws and 14 losses. That's carried on into the new campaign, with six wins, six draws and four defeats.

As such we're rooting for Fabian Huerzeler to guide Brighton to win 4-0, lose 1-0 and draw twice by any scoreline in their next four games, which would give them the ideal W60, D60, L60, GD0 record the day after PDC World Championship wraps up on January 3. (Irritatingly, they can't do it before then because the current first three games of the run are two draws and a loss.)
And actually, with West Ham, Brentford, Aston Villa and Arsenal next on the agenda in Brighton's festive run of Premier League action, that doesn't feel like too big an ask.
Come on, Fabian. Give the people what they want.
