Stunning video. :bowdown:

Anyone else start laughing as soon as you recognise Matty Robson of Hartlepool about to whip a cross on to the diving forehead of Colin Hawkins? What a moment, absolutely fantastic. Hinshelwood will be disappointed his 30 yard own goal didn't make the cut. And just one other thing about how crap we were, I know we had 9 men for that Stockport goal... but seriously. How awful is the defending?! Completely inept.

Someone should show Gus that video and just say thanks.

I'm opposed to that. All the Withdean moments on that video, I was there for. And a few classics which weren't on there, (Craig Davies [MENTION=13305]SNOOPY[/MENTION]) like giving Crewe a penalty early on in a massive relegation 6 pointer was quite fantasitcally inept aswell, for example. I think it's a good video for those of us who have experienced the bad times, but are now enjoying the good times. I don't think the people who don't know who Colin Hawkins is, or don't recognise any of the games they were seeing snippets from, will see why it's so brilliant. I might be wrong, but that's my opinion.

I don't agree - I think it shows how far we've come - it really is a stunning piece of video and it deserves to be shown to everyone who is supporting the team now - young and old x

Thinking more longer term, and less about this specific video, it would be good for the club to acknowledge more of the Withdean years around the Amex, I'm not really sure how that would work though. The time on the big screens is monopolised by advertising revenue, which is difficult to argue with to be fair, but it would be nice if they did a run through on there in parts. It would benefit the newer fans and the older ones, I'm always in residence in my seat just after 2pm, I would love a good Withdean reminiscing video on the big screen to really get me in the mood for the brilliance of the current Albion team.

Clutching at straws here but, there was a video of that goal taken by someone up in the WSU that I'm trying to find. It shows about 10 seconds of the build up to the goal from memory. Starting with Casper calmly rolling the ball out to the defender then shows how the noise silences as everyone takes a deep breath in as Buckley is about to strike the ball. Anyone know the one I mean?!

Found it:

Love it!
