Brighton youngster Dean Cox is relishing the prospect of playing in his 100th match for the club at Bristol Rovers on Saturday.

The winger, who made his full debut in 2006, marked his 99th appearance last Saturday by scoring a late winner in the 2-1 victory over Hartlepool.

The 20-year-old told BBC Southern Counties Radio: "It would be up there with the proudest moments of my life.

"I am more than happy to reach that landmark in two years."
