[Albion] 32 years ago this very night………

[Sarisbury Seagull]

I wasn’t there that night.

But I’m still having nightmares about the shorts we wore that season!

 

[Soton Seagull]

Northstand. Davy Clarkson 67th (ish) minute?

A great night.

 

[Ezzun]

In with the away fans in the East. Not 100% sure why we ended up in there, but when we equalised, it was clear there were more than a few other Brighton fans in there with us. There was half-hearted talk of repercussions from one young lad, but nothing came of it.

I was in the East too that night - no idea why....one of the very few times I stood there.

North Stand - remember him bumping his head on the dug out as he came out!

 

[worthingseagull]

half way line ish - East Stand

 

[Brovion]

North Stand. When he came on I turned to my mate and said: "That's David Beckham. He's going to be one of England's great players, he'll marry a pop star and become one half of a style brand. He'll take a great free kick though."

(Some of you may question the veracity of that statement, so I'll admit it's not all true - I was actually on the East Terrace!)

 

[The Wookiee]

I didn’t have a ticket but bought one off someone in The Eclipse pub before the game - was in the North Stand

Cobblers!
I was on the East Terrace and I didn't hear anyone say that (and I had very good hearing back in the day).

 

[Dancin Ninja BHA]

I was there in the North Stand as ever, left of the goal halfway up.

We always stood right in front of a barrier, so we knew we would never be bundled from behind but could instigate a goal-scoring bundle going down the terrace!! Happy days

 

[PILTDOWN MAN]

David Beckham made his Manchester United debut as a second half substitute against the Albion in the League Cup at The Goldstone.


Where in the ground did you watch it from?


I was sat in the West ️

North Stand

 

[Wrong-Direction]

Well I never knew that, but I was about 4

 

[dejavuatbtn]

North-west terrace. Some years later I was sorting through my old programmes and came across the one for this game. I had handwritten his name as a substitute …….. and I never used to do that! Weird.

 

[Lego-Stand]

Another one for the North

The good old days, before the Fun Police and their ticket policies

 

[bhafc99]

Another one for the North.

 

[PTC Gull]

West stand in front of the press box where John Vinicombe sat

 

[Brovion]

Cobblers!

I was, er, at the other end from you.

North

 

[lawros left foot]

I was in the south west, my usual place.

I was given 4 tickets by a mate, he got them as some kind of deal, probably not exactly kosher, knowing him.
Anyway, I went with2 United supporting mates and sold the spare to a tout for £5 more than face value.

I think it was about a fiver a ticket, so 10 quid profit.
