    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs Chelsea *** Official Match Thread ***

    I thought we were better than them for most of the game and we lost on fine margins - could have had a pen, missed sitters, their goal looked offside, they could have had a red (in fact if it was a league game they'd have picked up several yellows for kicking the ball away). Chelsea also played...

    [Albion] No VAR tonight

    Would have got a pen for handball late in the second half too. Also amused by a lot of their players rolling around waiting for VAR.

    [Albion] Statues: Plan B?

    Thought it was a thread by right wing loonies demanding we stop pulling down slave traders statues. As is, plan A will be fine most games and go long for plan B.

    [Misc] First crush

    Another for Diana Rigg. My first proper school crush was actually called Louise Crush, years later I found out she was a Palace fan. It would never have worked.

    [Misc] Collections

    Mine are more mundane, 1400 vinyl LPs - mostly 60s Soul, early ska and reggae, Mod and Mod revival, garage, freakbeat, African, gospel, blues, 2-tone and punk. And about 2500 books, mostly lefty histories and politics and 2 dozen on the Albion. A dozen tiny ironclads and at the moment I have...

    [Misc] Names which change

    I live in London and apart from my Sussex ex pat mates, everyone says H instead of H - even my on kids.

    [Albion] Brighton & Hove Albion vs AEK Athens *** Official Match Thread ***

    We passed poorly and did not deal with their physicality. The ref was poor as well. But the thing I found most annoying was: Whilst watching a stream on my phone, the match can lag and get behind real time by a minute or two. So when my messages started pinging 3 minutes from the final whistle I...

    [Albion] A thread for all the seagulls looking down on us today

    Jez Cooper of the Fly Kicking Badgers, like most of us would find it all surreal now. He took is own life over 20 years ago and I still think of him at games. Also the legend that is crazy Mick Dawes of Bognor. I first met him in a pub in Soho, he'd travelled up with an ex girlfriend of mine...

    [Albion] Referring to Albion fans as 'seagulls'.

    I don't think I've ever heard so many opposing fans referring to the Seagulls sh*****g on their teams - which is nice!

    [Albion] 15 Years ago today

    My wife had broken her arm the week before, but we'd already booked the hotel and train so just went for it.

    [Albion] 15 Years ago today

    The wheels came off Mickey Adams bus pretty quickly after 2 away wins. Southend away was my daughter's first game when she was 4 months old.

    [Albion] The "Joe Marler is a Seagull" thread

    Born in Haywards Heath apparently! As for Heathfield, I know 3 Brighton fans from there and they're all called Ian.

    [Football] Man U reaction to James Milner

    I believe he has the record for wins at Old Trafford when not playing for Man U.

    [Albion] The Athletic - Brighton content

    There is just endless stuff on the internet about Brighton these days, it seems pointless to pay for it (even though 90% of it is transfers out speculation and people re quoting others interviews). I used to search the internet for weeks before anything emerged, but now something in the world is...

    [Albion] Reality check (in a good way)

    Every single time I put a Brighton top on and leave my house in North London, someone wants to tell me how amazing we are. After the two shop assistants in Leyton Screwfix, then the guy that served us in B&Q sung our praises in the space of 10 minutes, my wife finally agreed I'm entitled to be...

    [Albion] All the Bloom interviews

    Has he done a raft of interviews or is it the usual official interview, and everyone else quotes from it as an exclusive?
