I don't know why Dave the Gaffer thinks the Supporters' Club have had a meeting with the board on the matter of ticket allocation in recent times, because we have not. The last specific meeting we had was in 2003 when we came up with what we considered a workable away "passport" scheme, but the...

This is just passing on a message from Liz to thank all those on NSC who wished her well during her recent spell of ill-health. Albion Julie printed off the messages and delivered them to her hospital bed. Liz was positively overwhemed with it all. She has recovered now and went to her first...

Just to correct one statement in this thread. "Albion A-Z" is NOT out of print. Anyone can go into the club shop and buy one for, I think, £7.50 at the moment. But hurry, there are only a few - like 50 - remaining and then they WILL be out of print.

This terrific picture of rural Falmer was posted on here a few weeks back. Could the poster (or anyone else) please PM me and let me know where it was obtained as we want to reproduce it. Thanks very much

I'm not sure what it is - but I am sure what it isn't, and that's an Albion medal. Firstly, Albion did not win anything in 1907-08, let alone "C.L & Cup" (actually, having had a good look, I'm not entirely convinced that is a "&", but I think it probably is). That covers first team and reserves...

The planning application was passed unanimously yesterday by the Planning Sub-Committee, so the game will go ahead as planned on Saturday evening. It was all done in three minutes, in contrast to the much more interesting i360 proposals.

You might like to read this "history" of the origin of Fans United which I wrote for an information booklet at the time of the event. Remember, this was 1997 and the Internet/www/email was not as ubiquitous as it is now, so some of it sounds a little dated! Some the exact detail was incorrect...

Albion Demo The rally outside the Liberal Democrat party conference takes place on Sunday, 17th September, at 4pm. While we wait, somewhat in limbo, for the stadium plans to progress, let's remember who is holding them up. Let's tell the Lib Dems what their party colleagues - Lewes District...

From the purely factual point of view, the whole stadium site is in the AONB. So too are the two universities. The boundary was designated in 1966 but the process dates back to around 1958 at least and the line reflects the built-up area of Brighton as then existed. Falmer School and its playing...

Albion have submitted yet another planning application for Withdean. You may know that the football club is prevented from playing home matches on Saturday afternoons in December (except for the first Saturday in the month) to avoid adversely affecting the city-centre park-and-ride operation...

Actually, Barrel of Fun, I have sent you two PMs but your mailbox is full. Please clear it out and read my messages! Thanks

No, not even subtly. You are on the list - don't panic!

Still need a few more. Any takers?
