[Brighton] Greatest Ever Amex Moment

Has to be this for me:

Absolutely incredible scenes, one of the biggest upsets in sporting history. It was massive at the time and is still widely known in Japan as the “Miracle in Brighton”.

Try not to get goosebumps watching that!

April 17, 2017 at home to Wigan - pitch invasion.

A memory that will stay with me forever.

It was an awesome achievement, not least because they could have taken an easy draw during that sequence of play.

So I have to agree with you, and with a little regret. I turned down the chance to attend the match because I thought it would be too one sided....

In fairness, South Africa gave it a go.

None of the above, still and always will be Will Buckley’s winner against Donny, first league game first win at the Amex

Probably this, although to two emphatic thumpings of Palace are in contention.

That goal against Marseille.
Best limbs ever at the Amex.

Sadly never going to be thought of all that fondly because of how the evening progressed, but the roar that met our goal against Massive in the playoffs sent shivers down my spine.

Massive turn out to be good for great memories, as Knocky stabbing home the winner for ten man Albion the following season was pretty epic too.

I did exactly the same thing. Fuming

Back in the days with the scratchcards, I won a pie. Bought a meal-deal and after all the complications ended up with both a free pie AND a free pint.

Happy days, when shall the glorious times return?

For me it it was the Friday night game against Sheff Wednesday. We were about to go a goal down after conceding a penalty and having a player sent off. A Stockpot double save and we ended up winning the game with more players in the pitch than the opponents.

This is the sort of magic, brilliance and good fortune which favours the successful, this was the precise moment I knew we were finally on our way.

Dan Harding being substituted before half time after getting absolutely destroyed by Will Buckley for 40 minutes straight.

Ulloa’s second against Palace. Brilliant goal.

When they forgot to remove my bottle top that one time and I could have a fizzy drink for the duration of the match without spilling any.

I think I’d even vote for something that happened in one of the women’s games over the rugby.

Gary Hart scoring to bring the Sussex Senior Cup back to it's rightful place in the REAL opening game

I think that was definitely my favourite goal. The Wigan hame was amazing but we all knew we were going up already, there wasn’t a particular moment that stood out. Although the second pitch invasion was fun.

Honorary mention to that 20 minute period in the second half against Man Utd under Potter when it felt like we scored every time we got the ball. I’d only ever seen us dominate a team like that once before in 35 years, in the 3-0 away to Peterborough in the league one promotion season. And this was happening against Man Utd with one of the greatest players that has ever lived on the pitch. And it was my son’s first ever win, after three years of trying.

Buckley definitely for me….

But really enjoyed Cucurella’s goal vs United, and the numerous Gross turns in the north west corner.

Sarisbury Seagull · 2025-01-30T08:15:57+0000

When JFC got his first goal for the Albion to put us 1.0 up at home to Southampton on the way to a 3.0 thrashing of the scummers!

Simster · 2025-01-30T08:19:36+0000

Can't really choose between Wigan, Donny, Marseille and the rugby to be honest.

By the way, the Amex has only been around for 15 years or so and half of those events don't have any sort of equivalence at the shit-tip that is Selhurst, despite a 100-year head start. Says it all about the gulf in class between the two clubs.
