Favourite Obscure Memory of Withdean Stadium

[Simster]

That own goal where our keeper (Mark Walton?) whacked it at our centre-half's arse. I think it was Andy Crosby's arse.

 

[Simster]

And Danny Cullip's home debut against Chester. In the first half, he was WANK. Second half, he looked a different player. It turns out he was more often than not like the second half version.

The RIDICULOUS Himshelwood own goal, on boxing day....

Yeah - Happy Bloody Christmas to you, too, Adam.

 

[Silent Bob]

Craig Brown turnin purple, invading the pitch, kicking the dugout, and getting sacked the next day.

 

[Mendoza]

Seeing Fabrizio Ravenelli warm up for Derby as a sub, thinking "i had my school sports day here too"

 

[Mr Albion]

Singing in the rain after Swindon play off game: Tommy Mooney "Hit the bar hit the bar" and he did, loved that.

Rainy evening match when I was visiting from the US -

FDM got sent off to a near-riotous reaction from the stands, and we won ... I think 4-2.
There was an incredible atmosphere, and all I'd ever heard about Withdean was the lack of it!

Harty had me at the mic post-game to comment on the preceedings too, which was BOUND to make it a wonderful evening for radio listeners

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Adam Rooney's hat-trick for Stoke City being warmly applauded by a seriously pissed off home crowd.

We were chanting we want 5 when they had scored their 4th. Stoke fans cheering wildly when Loft got a consolation goal for us.

Seeing Fabrizio Ravenelli warm up for Derby as a sub, thinking "i had my school sports day here too"

Twas a grim day and to cap it all Kerry Mayo got a late winner for us.

Mine is losing 4-3 to Rochdale in the pissing rain on a Friday night just before Christmas. Aspinall played for us, looking like a pub landlord who'd just happened to bring his boots along. The conditions were awful, the players were awful, we lost, yet somehow the game was one of the most entertaining I have ever seen. 7 goals, loads of chances at both ends and plenty of comedy moments to boot

Hundreds of Albion fans running back into the ground when Virgo equalised against Swindon.

[Lord Bamber]

Wendy Toms falling over the sandpit backwards when running the line on a very cold boxing day and squealing at the Ref, it was too dangerous to carry on.

Who said it was a mans game Andy?

 

[Marc]

A cold wet night against Boston in the LDV cup I think it was "LINO.....LINO......LIIIINOOOOO"

 

[Mendoza]

Scotty Mac eating this

 

[The Large One]

Martin Allen's cheesy theatrics in the dugout when MK Dons' manager.

 

[Norman Potting]

Attilla playing "We are the Champions" by Queen twice in succession "because he could" after the Chesterfield Champions game. He sounded, understandably, a bit emotional.

 

[Springal]

Playing Gillingham in an evening game, and having pretty much all weather imaginable during the 90 mins

Prosser and Sheffield United

Nathan Jones step over fooling the Leyton Orient defender and Jones standing with his hands on his hips whenthe defender eventually turned back round

 

[Mendoza]

Seb Carole on his 3rd? comeback, when the ball went in the air, and he caught it on his foot, held it for about 5 seconds before probably kicking the ball straight off the pitch


Phil Stant socring against us and running to the west bank behind the goal pretending to look for fans
