28 years ago today since......

[El Presidente]

The Albion's last league game in the top flight.

Away to Norwich, lost 2-1.

The Norwich boys were out for revenge after we had beaten them in the FA Cup quarter final a few weeks previously, so our top boys of course were nowhere to be seen.

And look who popped up to make a substitute appearance for the last 15 minutes, Albion's JCL of top flight football.... Chris Rodon!

I'm sure Guppy, our very own Jimmy Krankie, would have protected you.

So what was the Albion's farewell Division One game like? Was Chris Rodon's 15 minutes in an Albion shirt any good? Seems very much a forgotten game...

O'Regan played.

happened every season,recall our mini bus passing the pub the albion lads were calling us in and the turkey boys surrounded the mini busBut as luck would have it we had three big turkey lads on our bus who sorted their mob out! We had an earlier aborted off with some of their lads and ended up giving them a lift in our bus

As far as scuffles go I understand that one was a load of pants!

I went to this game I shagged some old trollope in a phone box she was about 34 I was 14. Her old man turned up , and I had to scarper down the road. Graham Pearce then came past on his push bike and gave me a lift in the basket on the front all the way to Carrow Road. Or something like that.
