There were 4 more matches then.

Got to agree with this. Some of the real "greats" stuck with their club through thick and thin. Maybe they didn't get the recognition they fully deserved at the time (International call-ups etc), but their iconic status survives. I'm thinking of Le Tiss, Steve Bull and, even Lewis Dunk might...

I wish TV would give you the option of crowd noise but no commentary sometimes.

Apparently, it was the lowest possession % Pep has ever had in his managerial career (37%) Pretty good, even if you consider the man advantage. I'm sure he must have had players sent off before.

Totally agree with you. but I don't care.:)

Peter Ward scored the first top flight hat trick at Molineux on a frosty night just before Xmas 1979 - starting a sequence of results that probably kept us up that season. Smith hauled us back from 0-3 down midway through the second half at Highfield Road in October of the following season. I...

No, never made that one. Nor Barrow, Workington or Boston.

I've done eight of those I mentioned, as well as Hereford, Dag & Red, Rushden & Diamonds, Macclesfield, Bury & Kidderminster which are no longer league clubs.

Torquay Stockport Hartlepool Wrexham Notts County Chesterfield Halifax Aldershot Not to mention: Darlington, Southport, Chester, who have sunk even lower. I remember seeing us play all of those in my most remembered Albion season of 1964-5 (The Bobby Smith season) when we scored 102 goals and...

Why ?

Sadly, there's also an FA Cup Final squeezed in there somewhere.

The article also says that we have links with Coventry City already. That was news to me. Is it true or is it because we have recently loaned them a couple of players ?

I didn't have a ticket, so I took the dog for it's longest ever walk in some fairly remote countryside. Got back to the car just as the results were being read on Sports Report and had to wait for what seemed like ages for "Hereford United 1, Brighton and Hove Albion...1 Enjoyable sing-along...

They would have appreciated The Glazers.

The next game was a bit interesting as well, by all accounts.

I thought Ed Balls was Wayne Rooney's job description.

Speaking of warm-ups, I'm pretty sure that they never happened at games in the 60s. You spent an hour or so standing on a packed terrace in great anticipation of the first sighting of the teams when they ran out of the tunnel. This was particularly exciting at big games where the players were...

On a non-Albion note, seeing Kenneth Wolstenholme just after he had descended a ladder from the commentary box at White Hart Lane to the shelf, where I had been packed in to see Jimmy Greaves score a wonder goal v Man Utd in a 5-1 win.

All the special buses lined up outside Hove Rec. after the match. My old man was the conductor on one of them in 1959 and sent me in with the driver to watch my first ever game (we lost !)
