[Albion] Historical BHA fact check - 1970s

[Grassman]

There was a lot of booze being drunk as it was Christmas. The mind fogs after a few pints.

Sorry Jeff.

ADDITIONAL...

Quite surprisingly, they don't have anyone old enough who was 'there' in the mid-1970s.

If anyone on here fits that bill and fancies doing an on camera interview 'somewhere' (undecided) in the city, let me know. I will be at Brighton Station at 2pm tomorrow (Friday), and we can take it from there. They will be in Brighton filming until about 5pm.

Let me know.

 

[Brovion]

Yeah, I might be able to do it between say three and five if you want.

Deffo the Bosun. Met a Bosun regular earlier this year who recounted the story to me as I was not sure it was an urban myth, like the infamous removal van caper. As a regular NS boy in the 70's/80's I can also remember joining in with the 'can you hear The Bosun sing' chant aimed at the SS where the Bosun faithful stood. Would get a barely audible 'seagulls' from the SS followed by a cheer from the NS.

Done. I'll happily be the reserve if you've got someone else lined up.

Yes, I believe so. I wasn't in it so can't say for sure!

 

[Seagull58]

No you didn't. You saw the other chap.

#FacesForRadio

He hogs all the limelight, does he?

 

[The Large One]

He hogs all the limelight, does he?

Nah. We share the chores.

 

[Perry Milkins]

What chores?

 

[Perry Milkins]

I'll have a pint thanks!

Had many good away days in that removal van. You could get about 15-20 people crammed into the back of that van.
