Nailed it for me. And the first time I've had a tear in my eye. The magnitude of this achievement is slowly sinking in.Simply awesome.
I’ve been watching some old school Albion vids today, to help remind me just how far we’ve come - even since the Poyet era… let alone the Brady, Case, Gritt, Horton, Adams, Wood era’s …. It’s simply heavenly… having watched us get hammered away at Doncaster under Jimmy Case, and cry on the way home… with Christer Warren playing up front… by God, it seems like only yesterday, but worlds apart - without any sense of hyperbole - I’m astonished.
The journey we’ve been on since my coming of age years - pretty much from the bottom up… I couldn’t have timed things better… I literally couldn’t have picked a better and more wholesome club to follow and love.
The agonising lows, the near death experience (of the club) for those who have witnessed it all… this high is literally beyond comprehension… I never would have dared to dream… although secretly I did, but I fancied it a folly, a mere unobtainable fancy in the air… yet here we are.
Yet, having literally just written that, I still feel there’s more to tell - yet more to come, I’ve always felt it so and I hope we continue to break the chains and the mould with equal measure.
Albion.
Steve Gibbon, player liason.Who is the (let's not call that bald) guy in the foreground at the start of the video. I see him in many of the videos and the players always have a lot of time for him.
I'm sure I should know.
For those that don't know him, there is a little more about his role in this (rather good) article by Liam Rosenior.Steve Gibbon, player liason.
And a blue pith helmet.If I was a Director, let alone the boss, I'd be wearing a BHA Blue tailor made mohair whistle too.
I'd probbably have Gresham make me matching safari suit with shorts as well
Did he win MOTM? He also has a huge press following and is involved in media commitments more than any other player
Royal Blue suit. Club colours innit!He does have extraordinairily blue trousers, doesn’t he, our Mr B?
Get sacked?I wish De Zerbi to do the same with Brighton as Ranieri did with Leicester.
