I have already declared where my allegiance lies on another thread!!

Oh dear, oh dear - nothing like leaving an open goal.......

How long before some Palarse troll responds with, "Does your boyfriend know you're here"?







Only of course, being thick, badly educated, and a Palarse troll, he won't get the apostrophe right! Probably type 'your'. Pathetic!

That's not the one they had to retake because it was Deano Deano Nobo Nobo..................

Kenny Beamish. We got him from Tranmere if I remember rightly. Dreadful days. I'll sum them up in one word. Alan Duffy.

Dreadful days when we got promotion with 'Buy a player' Pat Saward? B0110cks!

That was a brilliant time to be an Albion fan. As a student (at Liverpool Uni) I had plenty of time on my hands, hitch-hiking to anywhere was easy, and I watched a lot of football. Including some Tranmere (usually when they beat us at Prenton Park; I never saw any other result there!)
Tranmere had an excellent forward, called Kenny Beamish. If Fantasy Football had been invented then, I would have transferred him to Brighton as my first managerial move. Imagine then my delight when suddenly, one day they broke the club transfer record and paid £25,000 for him - and you are saying that was a dreadful day? Geez, what a plum!

Thanks, but no thanks.

Thanks, but no thanks.

My sentiments. I know we have to be careful what we say these days but put a sock in it you chaps who sit on the other side of the church. You're putting me off my breakfast!

Fantastically exciting time watching the Albion during Ken Beamish's time here. Compare that to the last couple of seasons at the Amex where I was horrified to realise sometimes that I was losing interest in what was happening on the pitch and looking round the stadium

It depends on exactly what they are doing when you get that "look up" their shorts.

KB was very much a Tranmere man or a Tranny man as my friend from Liverpool said before it meant something else. There was a lot of excitement when we signed him but he never really filled the boots of Kit Napier and/or Willy Irvine. A generous assessment would be 7 out of 10. He went back to Tranny and is still very much part of their heritage. He is/or was their Commercial Manager.

I keep reading this as Ken Bodfish, and the thought of his shorts and the like makes me *shudder*
