I met Willie Irvine as a star struck 7 year old in Hove Park.

It doesn’t get much better than that!

Dave Turner and (I think) Nobby Lawton. I used to belong to Shoreham Boys Club, and they were presenting certificates or trophies at some end-of-year do.

After that, it was Terry Connor, who presented me with a raffle prize (an over-sized Albion jacket) at a supporters club event.

John Templeman. The first game I went to was the Rochdale game in 1972 and iirc he scored, so it was the first goal I saw us score.

Jimmy Case and Joe Corrigan - went along to watch the team train at the greyhound stadium in September 1983, had my photo taken with them both - was totally star struck being a 12 year old boy

Seaford's very own Brian Powney

He was at Patcham School Fete, facing penalties taken by members of the public for charity
