Byegone Albion

[bardo]

Anyone come across the Byegone Albion photo's on the Argus photo sales pages? Didn't know they were there. Bit messed up with the copyright logo across each photo and tons of repeats, but plenty of memories there plus a few tears shed. You can play them as a slideshow. Many of the individual photo's are labelled but not all, and shame the proper dates aren't shown. However, if you've not seen them before, as I hadn't, worth a look ....http://3276.e-printphoto.co.uk/NQsu...ewsearch&keywords=&searchtype=pics&c_id=32676

Top Class bardo ! Thanks for pointing this out.

Definately one for the teenagers to look through. There's everything here.

See what was special about Ricky Marlowe's hairpiece, and so you can recognise Mark Farrington if you ever bump into him on the checkouts in Asda

I guess this must have been one of the long forgotton proposals for moving from the Goldstone, where as this stadium proposed for, Waterhall? http://3276.e-printphoto.co.uk/NQsussex/index.cfm?z=z&y=y&p_id=2253702&c_id=32676&action=view

the one on 1st page in the snow isnt that at peterbro in the fa cup the round after that we played newcastle?

Those were days, the Goldstone packed to the rafters, the smell, real, working class football fans, no nazi stewards, terracing, footballers who actually cared. Its about as far removed from todays football as you can get. OK the violence was nasty but a bit a real fear never hurt anyone in fact its character building!!

I feel sorry for all the younger fans who will never get to experience it Its all bloody mobile phones and playstation bollocks now

Couldn't agree more.....the photo with Teddy Maybank (about 2nd page) shows what the crowds used to be every week at the Goldstone in the 70's whilst in the old 3rd division.

The smell of pipe tobacco always reminds me of the north stand !!!

I'm in it as well, sitting down wearing a black jacket and white hat. I was only 15 at the time and got away with this and the multiple lincoln pitch invasions.

wonderful stuff. I just find some of those photos fascinating.

this one for instance. anyone know when this was?

Looks like early 80's to me

 

[burrish gull]

When I look at those photos I realise how far the club has fallen from grace and how things have totally changed. The only time I felt any sense of nostalga this season was Palace away (mind you a bottle very nearly hit my head!!)

Any time someone says Brightons just a small little club just show them these pictures from 70's and 80's when the club got massive crowds. Makes you sick to see teams like Reading at the top of the league not even selling out every week in a souless concrete bowl.

Will those good old days ever return?

Fascinating Pics, the one where the North stand and coppers are climbing the fence....was that the Bristol Rovers game when we went up!

Yes the Notts County half-time protest... Brady promised us a win.. which we did in the 88th minute!

This was what bellotti was proposing to build at either Waterhall or patcham Court Farm. Waterhall I tink, the one which was described as "a nice drawing whch looked liked it had been done with cryaons"

Ahhh the 1980sss

Think this was following the Chelsea pitch invasion in 1983
