"We're here, we're there, we're not allowed to swear Albion Albion..."

Have said all along I would sell Liam Bridcutt for £3million. Will Buckley's value is harder to define and also depends largely on information about his injuries which we fans don't have access to.

What were the haircuts of choice back in '84?

Just signed for Huddersfield I believe.

So right at the start then. 1978 or '79 seems to be roughly when it started taking hold in Liverpool.

I think I read it began around 1982 locally. Deerstalkers and all that. Would that be about right? Brighton seemed to be ahead of a lot of similar sized towns in catching on, mainly, I am led to believe, because of the big club supporting locals. Weren't Portsmouth the south coast team who...

I read somewhere that Brighton developed a casual scene around this time - perhaps a few years earlier - mainly because the town had quite a few locals who supported London teams, Manchester United, Liverpool etc, and they adopted the look which was then copied by local Albion fans. Any truth...

So what were the fashions in 1984? How tolerant was the city? Was there ever a genuine problem with racism at the football?

Lemon Sherbets. Mainly for the way they sometimes make you blink when you tap into the sherbet bit.

I've heard a few people mention Coasters over the years. Where was it out of interest? What is there now?

What was the live music and clubbing scene like? What was it like at the Albion back then? Best shops? Have the changes come about naturally or was there a regeneration effort by the council etc at any time?

Stuani would be an exciting signing but think he was linked to Lazio just before Christmas so perhaps a bit out of our league. You never know I guess.

Saw an article the other week looking at what the UK was like in 1984 - with the year picked because of the Orwell book and the fact it is 30 years ago this year. One of those pieces which looks at predictions against reality type thing. Got me wondering, what was Brighton like in 1984...

Has improved the players around him as well. Both Greer and El Abd are better when paired with Upson than each other.

Matthew Upson is probably our best player. Certainly most consistent.

Up In The Sky Closely followed by Rock 'n' Roll Star. Not a weak track on the entire album.

I would say it is more likely there will be a female manager than a player.

Have any of his bookings been for diving?

The above stats, of course, are only fouls per appearance. I imagine he is higher than Conway and Buckley in terms of fouls per time on the pitch.

He has been fouled 31 times this season. Works out as 2.1 times a game. Interestingly, Craig Conway was fouled 40 times while at the Albion. 3.1 fouls a game. Will Buckley 46 times. 2.6 times a game.
