Where do you get your Albion info from?

I realised today that I always use NSC for info - for example: tickets info for the Arsenal game. Would only use the official club site to book tickets.

Where do you get all your club info on signings, transfer rumours, travel etc from??

What did we do pre-internet?? Was the Argus the sole source?

You don't remember the pre-internet age! JCL.

For older listeners there was the Seagull Line - god knows how many 10ps I spent on that whilst at university in the 70s.

Mainly on here.i look at the Argus on line most days but normally the Argus has already been quoted on NSC.

Before the Internet it was the Argus, and when I moved away from the area it was teletext. Now mostly NSC and the bbc website. The club website is pants and I only use it for buying tickets and the club shop.

It doesn't matter what there used to be. I get most of my info about all news events (as well as the Albion) from NSC.

Now it's NSC but what I really miss is the in-depth response from a player being met in a pub or nightclub in Worthing or Brighton. Not necessarily sober comments but insider info was always interesting and insightful, normally relayed through fanzines bought at the ground.

NSC. It's the Argo of club information. Whatever is out there that's of any relevance finds its way here pretty quickly.

Before NSC? Just radio, TV, and such coverage as was in the national papers. Plus the Argus whenever I came down to visit my Mum and Dad - might pick up a match-day programme during those visits too.
