Local photographer JJ Waller has provided a copy of his book which chronicles the Albion's long journey from the Goldstone Ground to the Premier League, with many previously unseen photos of the Withdean years, construction of the Amex and the glorious finale and celebration from last season.
Most of the shots are accompanied by an appropriate quote, being drawn from Albion players, staff and fans. The latter includes several quotes from NSC luminaries including [MENTION=459]Bwian[/MENTION], [MENTION=20342]Surf's Up[/MENTION], [MENTION=19800]lawros left foot[/MENTION] and [MENTION=33633]Me and my Monkey[/MENTION].
The book's introduction is penned by "Build A Bonfire" / "We Want Falmer" co-author Paul Hodson and the rear cover feature some wonderful words from Dick Knight:
Your collection of Albion books would be incomplete without it. The book is available from the Albion club shop, Waterstones and JJ Waller's own site.
I will make undertake a random draw of all those who have responded to this thread by midnight on Sunday 8th October.
