Brighton v Man utd

[Green Cross Code Man]

If Beckham is 37 (?), he would have been 7 in 1982

Scored with a little chip at Smellhurst around 96/7 to announce his arrival IIRC

Beckham made his professional debut at the Goldstone in a cup game in 1992. I remember the north stand singing 'who the f*cking hell are you' to him.

there's just some things you can watch over and over again

this being one of them

He shot he scored!

We also drew 1-1 that season at Old Trafford, I think it was Moran who rescued a point at Old Trafford after Andy Ritchie had scored to give us the lead.

Still were relegated though.

Here's the first of those cup games in 1980/81. Cracking free-kick by Horton.

Now that's what you call a freekick right on the edge of the box!

Two things from that first video. What the hell did Clough do to Peter Ward in those two years? Had Ward been injured? and that tackle from Coppell would have been a straight red these days, no question.

Just watched the whole 20 mins of highlights and thought exactly the same straight red for coppell and also wardy never looked the explosive Peter ward in his second spell At the club as he did in the 70s

Someone correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Norman Whiteside make his debut in that game for man utd

No, that was the year before, came on as a sub. 16 or 17 years old i think he was..

i thought that beckam came on as a sub to make his debut , prob wrong but i vaugley remember singing who are ya

No, that was in September 1992

 

[Marxo]

For some reason I've always remembered that coca-cola cup match when Edwards scored as a win but now I see it was 1-1, bugger!

 

[catfish]

It kicked off BIG style in the North Stand when Wardy scored. Loads of United had infiltrated.

And were effectively repelled as I remember.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

It says on Wiki that he made his debut at the Goldstone in a 1-0 win, on the 24th of April 1982.

Well that's wrong.

Watch the Albion score, 30 seconds after David "Who-the-f***ing-hell-are-you?" Beckham comes on.

I apologised a couple of posts down LB, I quoted the wrong person. I should have quoted Mr soprano regarding Norman Whiteside.

It wasn't Clough. It was Ward growing a tache. Never the same player afterwards. The stats back me up.

No worries. I guess I just assumed you were in denial about the Albion ever having played in such an appalling kit.

No roof on the north stand! Was that just for one season?

You should have been safely tucked in with us Chicken Run woofters.

In 1982 Beckham would been aged about 5yrs. I know they sign them young these days but sure it was later, but it was V BHA.

Thanks for all your help, knew NSC would be my best port of call.

Not been on here for ages. Maybe a time for a return.

Merry New Year.
