Made me think what is the most unusual scoreline you have seen Albion involved in. Mine is probably 6-4 v Mansfield back in the sixties. I think we led 5-2 at half time. Also saw a 9-1 and 10-1 in that decade.

Think that could feature in a future specsavers ad.

I took the dog for the longest walk it had ever been on in remote woodland, returning to the car at 5pm in trepidation at turning on Sports Report for the result.

We need a compilation of all his "standing ovation" moments from this and last season (a la Vicente) - anybody ?

Still my most remembered season. Went to every home game bar one (a 5-0 win over Chesterfield when I had shingles - missed Norman Wisdom performing Sussex by the Sea on the pitch at half time) I can still feel the excitement when us schoolkids queuing outside the old North Road Baths one...

John Cleese. I used to think he was the god of comedy up until about 1980 - haven't found him in the slightest bit funny ever since.

I left BH&SGS 47 years ago and I don't think my experiences then would help either.
