When was the last time an Albion home game was abandoned due to the weather/pitch?

Great away day, that was. Anyone still got their free red scarf?

Travelled up in the back of a carpet fitters van,didn't even get a red carpet

Sadly enough yes I have ! VERY strange seeing them in red.

I got given the no10 shirt from that red kit. I sold it a couple of years ago for £400.

I was in the sponsors' lounge at the Goldstone when Gulls Eye sponsored a home game against Cardiff that was rained off late. But I've never been to an abandoned game (except York obviously)

Ah, remember it well. I heard the news on radio and did a u turn back home. Upon arrival back home, I was tasked with the job of taking my young son to the Sooty and Sweep Show at Worthing Pier.

Given the Albions form at the time, the latter was probably more entertaining......

That day was the only day I've ever had a run in with a policeman at a football match. I was in the RAF at the time, based at Cranwell which was just one station up the line at Grantham. I had to have a huge row with a copper at Peterborough station after the game because I wanted to go north, but the police were herding all Brighton fans onto the southbound platform. He only relented after about 5 minutes when I showed him my RAF id card.

There were two miracles that day. The first was the game took place despite the pitch being covered in snow.

The second: Justin Fashanu ACTUALLY started a game for Brighton !!

New Years day against Southend should have been abandoned but you've got to go way back to find an Albion game that was abandoned unless you count the Irish punch up

That pitch was awful. Whole day made worse by my stinking hangover, the defeat and the constant barrage of homophobia from the Southend fans. Scummy twats, I hate them.

mine was pinned on the wall of The Asterix bar in Arinsel Andorra in 1993, one of my customers still wears his but it's red and grey now
