I seem to recall it being on a loop and us being 1-0 up at half time ?
They sure did, and it was raining. There were no Pompey fans left so it was just done to annoy us. Didn't Mark Hately score 3 or 4?
There were Pompey fans left. They were behind the away terrace, throwing stones at us. What a terrible day that was. As somebody else rightly points out, we were 1-0 up and getting quite excited, before Willie Young turned in the WORST 45 minutes I have ever seen anybody have in a Brighton shirt.
We were HUMILIATED that day. No bones about it.
David Gipp ?
Marco Gabbadini ?
Gabbiadini never played for the Albion?
As its in the same post as David Gipp, perhaps you were thinking of his reserve team strike partner Franco Massimo?
And who was the albion goalkeeper that day??The 'Young' side played at Pompey, I believe when we got thrashed 5-1.
And who was the albion goalkeeper that day??
now a goalkeeping coach who was well past his sell by date when he played for us
He had a blinder against Liverpool in 1984yes Corrigan , he was PANTS
I never rated Young particularly but he certainly was an old style centre forward. Alex Dawson was the finest exponent in an Albion shirt of the -rarily seen nowadays- art of removing an opposing goalkeeper of his consciousness.
Sammy Morgan could do it occasionally but the game was getting softer by then.
that does bring back good memories when men were men and pansy was just the name of a flower.

Action pic of AD, the 'Busby Babe'/'Black Prince of Deepdale', during the 1958 FAC semi-final vs Fulham in 1958 in which he scored a hat-trick for Man Utd. I think he's still the last player to do this.
