Swindon's Michael Timlin admits he cannot wait to lock horns with brother-in-law Steven Thompson when the Robins face Brighton on Saturday.Family loyalties look set to be split when the Robins face the Seagulls this weekend as the on-loan Fulham midfielder comes up against Thompson at the Withdean Stadium.

"It should be a good one," he told the club's official website. "Steve joined Brighton in January from Falkirk and he has quite a bit of experience having been with Crystal Palace and Peterborough before.

"It will be a good opportunity for my family to come down and watch a game and hopefully it's a good one."

He added: "Brighton have a few games in hand and are well placed. The last couple of weeks have seen them pick up a few great results - aside from losing at Huddersfield on Tuesday night.

"Hopefully we can go there and put in a good performance and who knows what might happen."
