1989, referee Kelvin Morton awards a British record of five penalties in a match between Brighton and Crystal Palace. The game ended 2-1 to Palace.

we only got 1 pen in that clip and we had a man sent off before the pens. then they only won 2.1 after all that help? is that how it really went or is that just all the clip shows?

 

[Tricky Dicky]

Is 5 still a record - I would guess not ?

 

[CHAPPERS]

That's exactly what happened. All us lot on the terrace behind the goal were dumbstruck by what was happening. Quality goal from Ian Wright (?), though.

I could be wrong but I believe it is still a BRITISH record to this day. 5 Penalties in one match.

Excluding shootouts obviously.

Also my first away match. Mental game. 3 bonus points for anyone who can remember which Brighton player was sent off that day (without looking it up!).

It was. That was some half of football - and the 12 year old Palace chimps giving it the "come on" from the Arthur Wait Shed at half time - knowing full well they had a big fence to protect them - were equally entertaining.

Everyone attended that game then? I know two Palace fans through work and they were both there too.

was in the Holmedale road end keeping quiet ......nearly caught that last penalty from Humpreys

 

[Juan Albion]

Was there. The only dodgy penalty was the one we got if I remember correctly. You really can't blame our players for wanting to kick the Palarse opponents into the air, can you?

I think that was Trussons attitude from the moment the match started!

Was it Mike Trusson?

He was my tutor when taking my FA coaching badge recently. He is a UEFA coach who runs various courses for the FA in the UK and also has business interests abroad. Still lives in Angmering I believe.
