[Albion] Grounds We've Won At Often

[GREASED WEASEL]

I'd imagine the record for this will be some regional ground going back to the div 3 south days

but older fans amongst us will be well aware of our record at Molineux

over the last 40/50 years this has been a happy hunting ground for the Albion

yes,I was there when Wardy bagged a hat trick on a frosty Wolverhampton night all those years ago

pretty sure Molineux must be the ground we've won at most over the last 50 years

but the record?

please someone tell me it's Selhurst!

 

[Bodian]

Stamford Bridge?

 

[Cowfold Seagull]

Done well at Wet Sham in recent years, Elland Road too.

 

[Guinness Boy]

I was at Wolves the night we beat them 4-2 and Palace lost 9-0. Certainly seems a happy hunting ground.

The ratio record is likely to be Albion's best.

Brighton had never played Wolves prior to 1970. The away record since then..

Played 18

Won 8
Draw 7
Lost 3

Six of those wins were the first six matches. I was at the first defeat.

 

[tigertim68]

Done well at St Mary’s since we were promoted, have not lost down there in the last 5 years

I was at the near derelict Molineux in 79 for Wardie's hat trick. Saw the 4-2 previously mentioned as well as Brian Wade's "other" goal in a 3-2. not forgetting the Knocky super show the week before we went up to the Prem.

 

[wolfie]

Correction. I think Wade scored a couple more after that.

 

[GT49er]

In our first stint at top level we beat Wolves every time, IIRC. The only mistake we made was beatiing them twice in 81-82 which helped to relegate them.

Without our regular six points from Wolves, we were doomed to relegation ourselves the next season.

Was that the one where they scored from a corner that should have been our goal kick, and was then taken from way outside of the quadrant? I was there too.

Ha, what a night on that big terrace behind the goal, I also believe Portsmouth lost 3-0 at home to Plymouth that night for a full house.

It was a 2-0 defeat at the end of December 1991.

Fantastic night. I had put it up there with Peterborough and Charlton away under Poyet as our greatest performances I'd ever seen (obviously pre Potter). Then I saw extended highlights on the internet - I was wrong, it was an era of scrappy muddy football.

That's right. The pitch wasn't lined up correctly with the stands because redevelopment had started. Didn't stop Wardie though. I was there too.

 

[Weststander]

At The Valley - 4 wins, a draw and a loss, in our last visits.

I watched the "Wendy free kick" Ipswich game on youtube not so long ago. There's extended highlights out there. It is DREADFUL. Looks like a park game compared to the Premier League, and I mean compared to a Premier League game featuring Ali Jahanbaksh.

Does Gillingham count?

Have they not missed a game out? An evening game Lua Lua played in his first loan spell, Forster and Calderon scored loads of Albion turned up for a nothing game it ended 2-0 Albion If I remember.
