Garry Nelson

Was in the north stand yesterday top top bloke and my all time Albion Hero

 

[clippedgull]

Used to love watching him play.

But Peter Ward is still my top man

 

[Joe Nobody]

His books are excellent & include some good bits about Brighton.

My all time favourite Albion player, wish he still had a role at the club

 

[Muzzman]

BANG!

Careful what you wish for ...... Knight could let Slade walk in favour of a "Dream Appointment" as he brings back Albion legend, Garry Nelson to fill the managerial seat.

 

[Gully]

Are there plans to have a club museum and wall of fame at Falmer...if so Nelson is surely deserving of a mention.

 

[Tony Le Mesmer]

Albion legend

...and that remains, in my very humble opinion, one of the greatest photos I have ever seen taken from a football match...the striker, his work done, the ball flying majestically towards the goal...defence and goalkeeper unable to arrest its path...referee and attacking player watching in anticipation and a grandstand packed to the rafters ready to explode in celebration...magnificent!

 

[Mackenzie]

Nelson and Bremner, a proper forward parnership.

Legend

Plus, THAT goal at Brentford. Along with any footage of the grassy knoll on 22/11/63, its lack of any surviving video remains the greatest gap in recording history.

 

[Northstander]

I used to love being stood in the middle of the North Stand, awaiting a goal from our very own Gazza, then surge forward

He was indeed quality and if we have a BHA museum at Falmer, he should be in it!

Russell Slade -

Garry Nelsen - Stay in the North Stand pal.

I'm sure you're just trying to say that Russel Slade is a great manager and that he should continue to bw our manager, but that post-including the wrong spelling of a legend's name- seems like you're being rude to the very, very great Garry Nelson. I URGE you to edit your post and rephrase it...

GARRY NELSON

 

[Slough Seagull]

My only sporting hero and the only Albion player I have ever asked for his autograph.

I apologise and stand corrected.

Indeed. If you want a decent insight into lower league professional football then read Left foot forward and Left foot in the grave

 

[Lady Whistledown]

What's he doing with himself these days?

What's he doing with himself these days?

isn't he at the PFA or FA? Sure I read that somewhere
