Today is the fortieth anniversary of my very first Albion match. As nobody has sent me a card, I hope no-one minds if I mark the milestone here.
11 January 1969 : Football League Division Three
Brighton (0)1 Stockport (0)1
Kit Napier ........... Alec Young
Att 10645
1 Powney B
2 Templeman J
3 Henderson S
4 Lawton N
5 Napier J
6 Gall N
7 Wilkinson H
8 Napier K
9 Dawson A
10 Spearitt E
11 Tawse B
My thanks go to Hiney and Freddie Goodwin for providing information about this match. It cost me 2/- to stand on the East Terrace. Adults paid 4/- (20p). I suppose clubs in our division with open terracing like Yeovil will soon be charging £20 for the priviledge; can anybody think of anything else that has increased in price a hundred-fold in such a timespan ?
