    Paul Samrah - Hysterical Screamer, or what ?

    This whole idea that somehow there was a clique of uberfans who arselicked their way into the club is at best utter bollocks and at worst incredibly insulting. These people were the fans who literally gave up their lives to getting us the stadium. Whereas most of us wrote letters, went on...

    There's only one Dick Knight...

    We interviewed Dick Knight today for the book. 6 hours in Topolinos fuelled by caffeine and pasta. Having never had the pleasure of his company before, it was a fascinating afternoon. What an absolute gent and Albion legend that man is. Witty, self effacing, indiscreet without being bitchy and...

    "Why I hate Brighton" - article

    Why I Hate Brighton | Life | Sabotage Times Maybe a bit harsh, but he makes some valid points. This made me chuckle; "The pick of the bunch is unquestionably London Road: a characterless, sprawling mess inhabited by benefit-scrounging peasants, waddling along with fat bags of economy frozen...

    David Van Day

    You clearly weren't at the game today. One of the worst half times I can ever remember. Crass fake plastic 'entertainment for 15 mins, topped off with the burger van has been attempting a bad karaoke dirge about being rich and famous over some cheesy house track. The desperation and awfulness of...

    Favourite Obscure Memory of Withdean Stadium

    Leon's goal against Sheffield Weds when he ran back and celebrated in front of their dugout. Litte did we know then... Saddest was probably Charlie Oatway's career ending injury, seeing him be carried off on a stretcher. Mark Walton shouting in a cod Welsh accent

    Great article by Steve Coogan on the Top Gear Mexican 'joke' controversy

    I think you'll find it was 'twat' not 'cvnt'. Hooky would more than fulfill that description.

    Elliot Bennet reception

    Footballers (with very rare exceptions) are mercenaries. They go where the money is, where their agent thinks they should go, where their ego thinks they should be. They dont by and large give a flying f*** about the club they are playing for. As I say they are exceptions (Matt le Tissier, Mayo...

    All-time Withdean XI [merged threads]

    The two absolute unanimous choices seem to be Calderon and Zamora unsurprisingly. Our 2 best players in the last 15 years? Would they both make an all time Albion 11?

    Build a Bonfire update

    2 reasons. It's more affordable to do, and it keeps the original as a book in own right. Having said that, the publisher may do some hardbacks as well.

    Build a Bonfire update

    We are definitely republishing the book in early May. It will be an exact reprint in paperback. Myself (Steve N) and Paul Hodson are also writing a new book to be published in late July which will be in a similar style charting the campaign to build the new stadium (title undecided at present)...

    Brighton 'til I Die

    Hence the user name. And I've got a memory of you (TLO) telling me what a shit user name I had after my first post, resulting in a post rate 0.03 per day.

    police in brighton city centre

    That really annoys you more than one of the richest men in the country paying his wife a 1.2 billion dividend to avoid paying any tax on it? Meanwhile we all get shafted. Yeah right, lock 'em up.
