What is the highest scoring Albion game you have seen?

[Jam The Man]

Could have sworn it was 5-5... happy to concede to 5-4 though!
Anyways Johnny Crumplin defo got the fifth, and Clive Walker scored a hat trick

 

[Scotty Mac]

4-4 v colchester
6-2 v torquay
7-1 v chester
8-0 v northwich
4-4 v orient

dont think i have seen more than EIGHT in a game

 

[Mellor 3 Ward 4]

From memory, which can be shakey,for me it would be the 7-2 over York in the Peter Ward/Spider Mellor era.

Indeed it was, we had a few on MOTD at the time. We were a free scoring team that got quite a bit of tv attention in those days, suprisingly, seeing as were a 3rd (league 1) division team at the time. Shame MOTD doesn't go outside the top division any more.

 

[Publius Ovidius]

york 7-2

Staue Bucharest was the best game I ever saw at the albion closely followed by the England U21 game where we won 5-1?

 

[Bwian]

That 8-2 home defeat to Bristol Rovers.

 

[public school boy]

Oldham 6 BHA 1
BHA 7 Charlton 0
Sheff Untd 5 BHA 4

 

[Storer68]

Brighton 3 - 5 Charlton in about 1984
Brighton 6 - 2 Torquay United in 2000
Brighton 8 - 0 Northwich Victoria

Didn't go to the Sheffield United 5 - 4 Brighton match in 1989.

Saw all of them.

and the Sheffield beer festival in the evening - nine goals and much afterwards

 

[The Large One]

york 7-2

Are you thinking of the game Peter Ward played in at The Goldstone?

If so, it was in 1977 and finished England 6 - 0 Norway. Wardy scored a hat-trick.

That would be the same one for me, too.

 

[Renns]

4-4 Orient game at the Goldstone (my first ever match)
7-1 Chester Away
0-5 Palace away

 

[1swedegull]

the 7-1 away at Chester seem to remember we even cheered Chesters goal and paul watsons free kick.

 

[Woodingdean Gull]

I was there when we beat Reading 8-3 at the Goldstone, sometime around 1960. Quite unbelieveable.

 

[NMH]

From memory, which can be shakey,for me it would be the 7-2 over York in the Peter Ward/Spider Mellor era.

That one.

 

[severnside gull]

Saw the 10-1 Wisbech,and the 9-1 Southend games in 65/6.

Just off to collect me pension.

An amazing few weeks. Was it really that long ago? There was also a big (8-0?) reverse at Northampton back then that I remember..................

 

[HG201]

8-0 vs Northwich Victoria in the cup a few years ago

 

[SirDouglasLoft]

8-0 DEMOLITION of Northwich V

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

Albion 4-4 Colchester Boxing Day up at The Priestfield

ABSOLUTE STORMING GAME, WE CAME BACK LIKE THE DEVIL ON HEAT

 

[Spiros]

One of my first games was the 8-2 loss to Bristol Rovers. One of my youngest daughter's first games was us beating Northwich Victoria 8-0. Also there for 7-2 v York, 7-0 v Walsall (all in the 2nd half). I think I also saw us lose 5-3 at home to Cardiff once - if I remember rightly (probably not, though) we were 5-1 down and got back to 5-3 with still a fair bit of time to go, so we even dreamed of getting a point!

 

[mr sheen]

I think I remember a 4-3 game at Cambridge in the mid 80s...........
