I've got the goals on VHS, along with loads of other Albion highlights from the 80's and early 90's, but the tapes have been sitting in my sisters garage for the last 2 years and I have no idea what condition they are in, I also don't have access to a VCR to check them out (plus I'm not sure what else is on them) but Rapper, if I can dig them out, then you're welcome to them if you can convert them for your website?
As for the Peterborough game, it was memorable for me because it was the first away match I went to, and nearly the last! 6,000 of us shoehorned into that small away end.... I seriously thought I was gonna die. The crush was so bad I could actually feel my ribs bending inwards, and when we scored.... my feet didn't touch the ground for at least a minute!
I'd happily convert every one of these VHS tapes. I've got all the equipment and hard drive space for moments like this! Sounds like you have a whole load of Albion footage that would be of interest. Are you based in Sussex?

There certainly was - I remember Justin Fashanu sliding about on it.
Bloody cold too - we wore red and the club shop made a point of selling red scarves

*Ahem*.
According to Tim Carder's book, it was Saunders.

I'll see what I can do, I won't be at my sister's again until Sunday, I'll be in touch after that. I'm not based in Sussex anymore, I live in Exmouth now, but sending the tapes won't be a problem. I'm just trying to think what I had on there now, I know there's the away game at Plymouth when we were promoted, and a couple games against Portsmouth, including the one where Mick Quinn gave the V sign up at the north stand after scoring a penalty...
There's also the game against palarse when there were 5 penalties! Extended highlights of the Southampton quarter final! Those tapes are like a little goldmine now!Ah yes, well im not going to argue with our Tim! Fog of memory again. My brain is telling me that I am associating Alan Biley comming on as a sub and missing a heading sitter from six yards out with the goal itself......it was 24 years ago!

Having watched all the clips and probably at all the matches the only thing that occurs to me is the noise ....................it was fantastic

Ah, the game we nearly lost after a lump of ice chipped the ball over a diving Digweed.
