Here's a nifty Albion database

[maffew]

If I had data it would be easy. All I have is books!

Ah I see

 

[Storer68]

I assume Frank Stapleton signing in 94/95 was down to his mate Liam Brady, but how come he only played two games?

cos he was SHITE witha capital S

Left us to become 1st team coach at QPR

didn't last long there

 

[BensGrandad]

I assume Frank Stapleton signing in 94/95 was down to his mate Liam Brady, but how come he only played two games?

As has been said by the time he reached us he was absolute rubbish and would qualify amongst our worst ever 11 players.

Through out his career he was never a prolific goalscorer, well never scored as many as one would have assumed he did.

 

[Everest]

It is my intention, when I get round to it, to create an Albion specific version of Soccerbase, going back as far as records do to enable people to delve into all manner of player stats.

The biggest hurdle is having to enter all the data manually - it will take quite a while!

Well, why are you still here? Hadn't you get cracking?

 

[NMH]

From a quick browse of that list, it's astounding to see Zamora's goal/game ratio!

Wardy I'd assumed to have scored more - but BZ scored 5 less goals for Brighton in 69 less games!

I'm pretty sure that in those two games he played as a sweeper NOT a centre forward

Fascinating, more so that we once signed a player from Kirkintilloch Rob Roy (Craig Baillie, who made a mere 4 appearances, so it seems).

What a magnificently named football club

edits: TWO players. Did we have some kind of nursery club arrangement with them or something??

Now this is ayouth policy

It is estimated that over 200 Ex-Rob Roy players stepped up to the Senior ranks through the years. A list of some players and the club(s) they signed for is listed below. As this is not a complete list any Rabs fan or historian who wish to have an ex-player listed please get in touch with details.This can be done through the Guest Page.

[Freddie Goodwin.]

There's some nice little obscure ones in there like Barrie Wright a fullback who played between 68 - 70.

Came to Brighton from Leeds via the New York Generals.

From the Leeds site Leeds United F.C. History, this is him on the far right of the back row (next to Bremner)

I remember Barrie Wright, and well I should as Freddie goodwin brought him and geoff Sidebottam with him from New York.

Wright was a steady but unspectacular defender, Sidebottamwas a goalie famous for getting flattened with head injuries. Very brave. Well remember the time he was laid out in the North goal whilst play switched to the other end. in those days refs didn't stop the game and we were going wild as he was abosolutly spark out.

 

[Porky]

edits: TWO players. Did we have some kind of nursery club arrangement with them or something??

John Sim 46-50 from the same club. Shows a tally of 5 goals. Would this have been the 5 goals he scored in one Reserves game about 46 or 47?
