Where about was this SNAP of Brighton fans taken? It was in 1991, I think.

[Timbo]

I've been to their shop in the Lake District (cant remember exactly where!), amazing quality pictures. the big ones are on tin apparently. and that photo was there and it was middlesboro.

[Insel affe]

Anyone?

BTW if you haven't visited that site, give it a visit. It's pukka.

I was there jesus,That was middlebrough and we got beat 2-0 4th of may 1991,You just never knew which brighton would turn up the good,the bad,or the ugly !! and we sang to the boro fans "you only score with your children" because there was some social care problem up there at the time. There was also an old guy in tight white shorts,socks pulled up to the knee and a sailors cap with a seagull attached to it. The next and last game of the season was Ipswich at home and "that free kick" !!

ps i still have the programme

Why is there an Elf in the crowd?

What about the Jedi......beside a nun?

 

[Gwylan]

I was at that game. I've looked carefully but can't see myself must have been skulking at the back somewhere.

I remember thinking that it was one of the grimmest locations I'd ever been to for a game (and I'd been to some pretty grim Northern grounds). It looked like something out of a 3rd World country - I was glad to be out of the place.

 

[Austrian Gull]

Is that Yosser Hughes towards the front in the denim jacket?

 

[Mr Blobby]

Is this definitely Middlesbrough? I have seen this picture before and thought it was the old away terrace at Bristol City. I can see a few mates looking a lot lot younger! I am in there somewhere!

 

[Bevendean Hillbilly]

Yes..the clue is the programme on the floor at the front with the word "Boro" across it.

Good spot, just blown up the picture and seen that!

I have a couple of books by Stuart Clarke, they are quality. Also saw some of his pictures at an exhibition in Preston one year as well.

I was there for that game two, albeit not on the cold terrace. A friend of a friend had won two tickets for hospitality through Dunn and Co (remember them). They couldn't go so two of us (out of a group of about 9) had them. Very nice. Turned up with only about 30 mins to kick off but had a massive carvery meal complete with a couple of pints (in glasses mind, not plastic tumblers). Tea and cake at half time. Result was a bit piss poor but rounded the trip off with an overnight stay in Wakefield.

 

[Gordon the Gopher]

I didn't know Mike Reid travelled away with the Albion!

 

[Papa Lazarou]

That was the game the Mike Small was getting some serious racial abuse from the home fans during the warm up and then hit a shot at what seemed about 150mph into the crowd behind the goal as a form of retribution. He got terrible abuse throughout the match.

Nice area

I'm the youngster in the fetching blue ski jacket on the right (leaning against the crush barrier). I don't recognise anyone else, although I know I didn't go alone (I remember getting back to Shoreham for last orders after the match!).

You were certainly packing some heat back then Papa, or were you just pleased to be at Ayresome Park?

 

[Harold]

I was there. Albion fans had been singing 'boro fans sh*g their kids' on the train up (due to the Cleveland sex case). Police met us at the railway station and forced us to ride in a van to the station. For our own safety apparently. Remember talking to one copper in the van who had moved up from Southampton. Reckoned the place was a nightmare. The walk back through town afterwards quickened the pulse I seem to remember.

 

[Al Bion]

I was there too (though luckily I can't see myself). The reason people are in fancy dress is because it was the last away game of the season. Happy memories

 

[Pretty pink fairy]

we certainly never led the way in the fashion stakes ??
