Ultimately they all have to be replaced because they all at some point leave the club. Mac Senior and his conduct is exactly what Attila was alluding to with his not liking the water his ‘goldfish’ was swimming in, given where we’ve ended up these are the rules we have to play by, no one on...

Didn’t take you long 😂 I‘m in Paris with my wife and they closed the road due to a potential riot. 🤷‍♂️

Did Horton leave before Mullery in the summer of 81 or after?

In Paris for a few days for Mrs H’s 30th birthday (She’s 53 but we got there eventually 😂), staying near the Opera House, yesterday the road was closed and most of the shops boarded their windows up in preparation for a mass protest about the retirement age going up to 64. Thousands took to...

That was the official line, but by Jimmy’s own admission it was more to do with his ‘extended social life’ in the City with some of Brighton and Hove’s more colourful characters. Steve Rooke later told me a line was allegedly crossed, Chris Cattlin went to the board and said ‘He’s out, if I can...

Not as harsh as the minutes silence for Ted Croker, broken on 48 seconds with the cry of “”Why don’t you f*** off Codner” 🙈

I’ve got to phone him about the lunch on Monday so will make sure to mention it then 😂 (And it’s on Friday so I’m sure if he can do anything he will)

Open to question, inferior?, became an integral part in a team that then finished the highest it ever had, 13th in 81/82, and got to the FA Cup final the year after that. But that’s why we all love the Albion 👍 FWIW we are now in an era where Mark Lawrenson, IMHO the greatest player to pull...

I’m not sure there is a precedent, then again you probably don’t get many teams playing in an FA Cup semi final on the 10th anniversary of the death of the only man to lead them out in an F A Cup final. It would be a nice touch to have his picture up on the screen on 56 minutes ( he died at...

Just realised Semi Final day, 23rd April, is the 10th anniversary of ‘Paddy’s’ sad passing at the age of 56. For younger NSCers he led us out at Wembley in May 1983 due to Steve Foster’s suspension. Hoping someone at the club, Edward David perhaps or the FA has also clocked this and he will...

She gets a mention in Stand or Fall if it ever comes out 🤷‍♂️ RIP 😞

What is the definition of poverty? Without reeling out the Four Yorkshiremen sketch, what does it actually mean? A couple of years ago I went to see some people, I hasten to add good honest folk in part time work, who had the majority of their funeral bill paid for by the DWP, they had a...

This. Problem is bad news and the actions of scumbags all attract attention. Newspapers have been replaced in the main by social media but it’s still the same as it ever was, people don’t like good news or positive actions.

So incensed by it all, Gulls Eye offered to pay his legal bills when he appeared at Steyning Magistrates. Being old school Gerry sent us a hand written note thanking us but stating it was down to him to pay for everything.

This polls are always open to debate, first thought no Bowie or Amy Winehouse. You could say the same if we had a top 5 all time Albion players ability wise poll. It’s all about opinions.

Between 10 and 15 depending on the level of the service

Smudge unfortunately in my line of work I see it a lot, but whenever one of our generation dies suddenly, either locally or nationally, one or two mates/associates immediately ask “Have they been vaccinate?” What people forget is that long before COVID we were the generation who drank in smoke...

Watched on our new firestick. At the final whistle I fired off a barrage of expletives which prompted Mrs H to enquire if the Albion had lost?

I do old love, Marc Bolan died on a Thursday night, and remember the news on the Friday, including the mini wrapped round the tree, but it wasn’t first on, as we were waiting for it. Did you know that Bolan’s last TV appearance was a duet with David Bowie on his TV pop show Bolan.

My case in point. 👍
