[Gregory2Smith1]

Spurs,only a matter of weeks since they played in the European Cup Final

others?

Forest 1-0

Liverpool (FA Cup) 2-1

West Brom (League Cup ) 2-0

Charity Shield

plenty more I'm sure

 

[nicko31]

Better than Arsenal and both Manure wins in the PL. First against a top 4 side

 

[GT49er]

Brighton 3 Burnley (League Champions) 3, FA Cup 1961.

 

[Weststander]

The improbable 2 home wins over Mourinho’s ManUre (an £800m squad to pick from):

The first, as good as saw us stay up.

The second, led to disarray in their camp and was the writing on the wall for Mourinho.

Last game at the Goldstone.

This for me too. I was there (as I have may have mentioned earlier, ahem).

But, actually, as someone who made his first visit to the Goldstone in 1969....today was the best. After the game kicked off, not for one second today did I think we would embarass ourselves. It was 90 minutes of pure pleasure. Long may it continue.

 

[Ernest]

Brighton 1-0 Aston Villa in 80/81 the season they were champions is our best ever

 

[melias shoes]

Liverpool (A) 1-0 1982
Tottenham (A) 1-0 1981

Yes. At both of those.
Also Spurs 2-1 (H) 1983 both our goals in the last couple of minutes.

 

[Sirnormangall]

All of the above plus a win at Hull on a Tuesday night some time in the 90s when we were reduced to 9 men.

 

[Lever]

Got to agree that today was up there with the best and I started going to the matches in 1965! Mind you, beating Liverpool at Anfield in 1983 made me very happy too!

 

[wellquickwoody]

Liverpool @ Anfield FA Cup Feb 1983 has to be my fave, don’t think they had lost a home cup match for something like 15 years!

And yes, I was there.

 

[Icy Gull]

All those mentioned but the results under Poyet away at Peterborough and Charlton are up there for me. We were absolute dynamite in those two games and, for me, that was the start of where we are now. It’s been bumpy along the way but those two games are right up there as great and unexpected Albion performances.

 

[The Birdman]

Newcastle 1 v Brighton 3 promotion from old 2nd Division to the First Division

 

[Moshe Gariani]

Love the blue and white tinted nostalgia.

Has Aaron Connolly already done enough to suggest strongly he is a more able footballer than Peter Ward ever was?

 

[The-Libertine]

2008 League Cup, Withdean.

Brighton 2 Manchester City 2

Brighton won 5-3 on penalties.

 

[wigman]

Liverpool (A) 1-0 1982
Tottenham (A) 1-0 1981

I was present at both of those victories and still talk about them now.
