First Brighton Away Game?

[Insel affe]

Was that the televised game for Peter Shilton's 1000th league game?

Think that was on a Sunday and we lost anyway.

Man City we lost 2-0 first season back in division two after our relegation from the top flight.

Hereford - March 76. Saw Fred Binney outside the ground and told him to grab a couple of goals. He looked thoroughly miserable, got inside the ground and found he'd been dropped for some skinny nobody called Peter Ward - who promptly scored in the first minute

We drew 1-1 and I couldn't wait to go another away game. I think the next one I went to was the very next away match (may have been the next but one) - Millwall at the Den - lost 3-1 in a game where Joe Kinnear had one of the worst single performances I've ever seen. It looked like he was half-pissed. Still, at least we got out alive

Genuinely haven't got a scooby. Would have been either '74 or '75 I guess, and near-ish. That's about as much idea as I have.

A couple of early ones I have a vague memory of include Paul Clark scoring at Fulham, and one at Aldershot when there was plenty of

 

[Lady Whistledown]

That was a cracker.

It was indeed. On the basis that we were almost certainly total crap at that time, a 3-0 victory away from home was not to be sniffed at.

Sheffield United 1 - 2 Brighton
Mayo (og) - Carpenter, Knight

 

[Dirty Dave]

Lincoln away in 99/00 season I think. 2-0 defeat

 

[GT49er]

FA Cup third round 1967 (so that'd presumably have been January, then?) - Recreation Ground, Aldershot. 0-0.

 

[Blackadder]

Spurs Nov 77

Nice to pick a nice "Quiet" game for your debut. that was an "interesting" day.

Mine was a couple of years earlier. Aldershot. 1-1. Gate of 11,000 including 8,000 Albion.

 

[Dave the OAP]

1974 ish Watford away...followed by millwall away at cold blow lane, stood next to some huge black bloke who had a dog with him! Lost 3-1 Fred binney scored

 

[patchamalbion]

Lincoln away 2001. 3-1 victory and a punch up right in front of my young eyes as 5 Lincoln fans celebrated there opener in our end.

 

[Whitechapel]

Quite recent , Orient away - the 2-0 Brooker,Zamora one.

My first one too as far as I can remember. Over ten years ago now, time flies! Remember it well, despite only being 6/7 at the time.

My first game without my parents was a 2-2 draw at Cheltenham. 2-0 down and being outplayed, a late goal from Nicky Forster and a 90th minute equaliser from Adam Hinshelwood earned us a point. Been hooked ever since.

My dad was a Spurs fan so it was a game for both of us, he had also taken me to White Hart Lane before, I just liked going to football and never supported Spurs, but the trouble that day was nothing to what I had witnessed at WHL before, a match against West Ham was madness with fights going off all round the ground.

I remember some older lads that lived near me telling me about the Aldershot game.

 

[mr sheen]

Notts County, 1983, the game foster got booked in I think, that kept him out the cup final. Lost 1-0

 

[sten]

Crystal palace away march 78 0-0, in the old away end which is now sainsburys, plenty going on in all four stands didn't help two shakey 13 year olds when my mates dad clumped some bloke in front of us who was very drunk and hitting out at anyone , we asked him on way home in car was the drunk bloke Bha or palace said he didn't know or care

 

[grumpyoldgit]

Exactly the same as my first two away games but I didn't fall off a stool.

 

[Insel affe]

It was indeed. On the basis that we were almost certainly total crap at that time, a 3-0 victory away from home was not to be sniffed at.

Although I thought we had the far side same as the side we had when played them for that Shilton game and Was it Bas Savage scored that was an evening game I could have sworn the game when Zamora scored and we had the large end and filled it was a Saturday game.

 

[grumpyoldgit]

Messed that up ' should have been a reply to Gilligham and Hereford

Stamford Bridge FA cup replay against Chelsea 67.
