The Best 3 footballers you've seen play for the Albion

[Basil Fawlty]

Bobby Zamora, Danny Cullip and John Byrne.

Dickov was shit hot when we had him on loan from Arsenal. He'd have to be one.

Very true.

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Age of the poster will always be a factor in these sort of polls.

For me, I would have to agree with Ditchy.

Mark Lawrenson, despite his goonery since leaving, was FAR AND AWAY the best player I've seen in the stripes.

Peter Ward WASN'T FAR BEHIND

 

[Uncle Buck]

Probably these 3;

Bobby Zamora
Simon Morgan
John Robinson

Could not decide whether Foster second time round should be in front of Morgan, but Morgan got it as we won the Second Division and he seemed to bring the best out of those who played alongside him in defence.

 

[On the Left Wing]

Kit Napier
Peter Ward
Steve Foster

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

Morgan
Zamora
Knight

 

[Hiney]

Just realised what I did there

 

[Icy Gull]

Lawrenson
Ward
Horton - also happened to be the captain of possibly the best and without doubt the most exciting ever Brighton side, the one that came out of Div 2.

 

[Trufflehound]

Lawrenson, then Ward.

Then Willie Irvine, because he was my first Albion hero.

 

[jevs]

Peter Ward

John Keeley (best Brighton keeper by a country mile)

Steve Foster

 

[Albion Dan]

Gotsmanov, was absolutely GUTTED when he went to The Saints.

Case, the midfield general, shame he tarnished it all with his appaling stint as manager.

Zamora.

Zamora

Case

Nelson

...but Gary Stevens comes close.

Barry Rees tragically killed in a car crash

Could you tell me a little more about Barry Rees? I must admit I have never heard of him.

Cheers

I believe he was 19 when we signed him from Everton, but he was already a under 21 international for Wales.
He was a member of the team that won promotion from Division4 along with the likes of Bobby Smith, Mel Hopkins, Norman Gall and Jimmy Collins.
He was killed in a car crash going home to Chester after a game.
He had a wonderfull engine and would cover every blade of grass during a game, fast, powerfull with a great shot.
I think he would have become a real star if had not been for the tragic accident.
