Brighton v Man utd

[mune ni kamome]

Weird to see the players staying on their feet all the time. We were harder in those days.

 

[Deleted User X18H]

We lost in the Townsend Thorenson Cup on penalties.

 

[portslade seagull]

A fair few of those tackles by scumchester were yellow/red card offences .... Utd never took the northstand

 

[Super Steve Earle]

Only home match me an Mrs Earle missed that season due to inconveniently timed birth of the youngest Earle on the same day. Luckily it was on MotD and we have a Wardy signed programme.

got me looking at head to heads - we have only played chelsea 4 times in the league!! and 8 in total.

I may be wrong, but I believe Chelsea are the only team, we have played in the league, to of never of taken a single point off !!

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

He did make his debut at the Goldstone but it was in a league game that they won 1-0. Ray Wilkins scored the goal IIRC. I think in the previous season, 81-82

 

[Baron Pepperpot]

Seem to recall we drew in the league at Old Trafford in the cup final year too.

 

[Baron Pepperpot]

Well that's wrong.

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

and goes straight out of position to leave a massive hole on the right flank for the scoring cross...

 

[Pretty pink fairy]

Seem to remember celebrating on the pitch in front of the north stand at one of those games

Wasn't you that did a celebratory jig on the pitch infront of the North after we scored our second in the 8-2 defeat to Bristol Rovers was it DR ?

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

We were roofless between 1980-84.

 

[Shegull]

What made me chuckle in the video of the game was that none of the crowd were wearing club jerseys. When exactly did that come in?

 

[Norman Potting]

We were roofless between 1980-84.

And the Sussex County Building Society funded it I recall.

 

[Goldstone Rapper]

And the Sussex County Building Society funded it I recall.

Whatever became of them?

 

[Lord Bracknell]

Whatever became of them?

Mergers and takeovers.

They became the Southdown Building Society, then the Leeds took over. Now they're the Halifax.

 

[Notters]

Could well have caused our relegation then with the knock on effect on atmosphere.
