His name is Ray Brooks, was the voice behind Mr Benn, and was in at least one Carry On film, and also Cathy Come Home amongst others.

He really is a top bloke!:bowdown:

Chap who narrates the League 1/2 goals on the Football League show. Forget his name.

Well there are two of them (alternating) - one is Nick Halling, who I believe is a SSC fan, and also does the matchday announcements at St Mary's (As well as presenting the NFL every Sunday night)

The other one... I assume is the Brighton fan?

Nick Halling lives in the New Forest and follows Southampton & Albion to a lesser extent. However, his cousin who shares his surname is an NSC regular of 12 years now.

I swear there was a picture posted on here ages ago where Margaret Hamilton (the wicked witch of the west in the Wizard of OZ) was at a Brighton game, don't think she was a fan though.

I can cite Johnny Saunders (sports person on Radio 2 Chris Evans show in the morning), Mark Williams (Comic Actor from the Fast Show and other stuff, actually a WBA fan but allegedly watches the Albion), a chap who used to be in the Bill and Ralph Brown (another actor, various stuff and a Green Party activist according to Wikipedia.

So that makes 7 (8 if Woody Fatboyslimcook - Ball confirms his allegiance to the cause).

Anyone care to fill us in on the other 93/92?????

About 8-10 years ago, I took my uncles season ticket seat in North stand at Withdean, Mark Williams sat about 10 seats away...... I will never forget that day, we were playing Swansea, the withdean atmosphere was quiet and muted from the home fans, all you could here were the Swansea singing

" you're supposed to be at home "....


and at the end of the second lower monotone " you're supposed to be at home ". Mark Williams stood up, pointing to the away fans in the east stand, and shouted

" you're supposed to be a sheep "
