[Albion] The Albion and your birthday

[Baron Pepperpot]

Albion were defeated 2-0 at Oldham Athletic on the day I was born. One of only two defeats in a 15 match run. March 1969.

 

[Frutos]

You were born on a Monday then ! Twas a Sunday match. Would that make you 30th January ? Can't remember.

Yes on both counts.

 

[Sussex on Leith]

Born at half time of a league game at Hull in 1978. One down when I was born, came back to draw 1-1. You're welcome.

The 1953-54 season started exactly two weeks after my birth on 19th August with a 2-1 win at QPR.

It was the start of an eight match unbeaten run including seven wins. Finished the season on 61 points which would equate to 87 points currently.

 

[SeagullSarge]

They played on my birthday (18-09-81):

Brighton and Hove Albion Vs. Coventry City (2-2)

Division 1

Finished a rather uninspiring 13th!

 

[Sam Ovett]

Season ended 8/5/1993 with a 3-2 win at home to Chester.

It's my birthday tomorrow, which is a pretty big game

 

[HastingsSeagull]

Jan 10th 1983, so usually it's FA Cup 3rd round day. Lead to Wembley trip

 

[Boys 9d]

I've no idea, not only was I born in July it was also the middle of World War 2.

 

[tinycowboy]

We lost 2-1 at home to Mansfield Town in the old Division 3. Two seasons later, we were promoted - yippee!!

 

[KJP]

Lost 4 nil to Forest

We did get to the cup final that season though

 

[luge]

FA Cup Final 1983.

Smith didn't score, and my Dad still hasn't forgiven me for having to be in a hospital watching my birth rather than being at Wembley.

 

[Bevendean Hillbilly]

October 28th 1967 BHAFC 1:0 Watford...

Brighton

 

[Elvis]

Fa cup 2nd round replay V Walsall. We drew 1-1, this was four days after the initial tie. The crowd was 9,621, we finished the season in 5th place in the old 3rd....( we were top with 5 games to go )

 

[The Modfather]

Two days after my birthday we drew 2-2 away to Northampton

 

[Jimmy Come Lately]

If I'm reading Statto correctly we beat Port Vale 3-0 in Division Three to bounce back into the third promotion place, but Millwall snatched it back from us when we lost there the following week and it looks like our season fizzled out after that.

On the plus side, we did the double over Palace that season and finished above them on goals scored.

 

[Tim Over Whelmed]

On my Birth Day we lost 0-3 to Scunthorpe ....
