Your favourite Albion related book

[Buzzer]

Anyone got a particular favourite? I've read most of the best-known ones: Build a Bonfire, More Than 90 Minutes, Mad Man but the two I enjoy the most are the Albion: On This Day (a great one for dipping in and out of) and Garry Nelson's Left Foot Forward. Not strictly Brighton as he was at Charlton then but he mentions us often, a great player for us and it's very well written.

Any others I ought to buy? Is Gullhanger any good?

Gull hanger is the ABSOLUTE worst book EVER, let alone WORST Albion book ever

Fortunately the author seems to have disappeared back to obscurity.

Charlie Oatway's was an interesting one too, albeit very brief.

Mad Man

I quite enjoyed Alan Mullery's autobiography although that wasn't strictly all about Albion of course

 

[Dirk Lehmann's Python]

I enjoyed Smith Must score as a teenager

Build a bonfire. A great account of our most turbulent times.

Gull hanger was a free download when Igot it but not sure if that is still the case

Apart from the crying - way OTT IMHO - I think Gullhanger is a good read.

I have a copy you can borrow.

As for BHAOTD: yes, it is probably the best Albion book there is.

A Casual Look bought back many memories.

Cheers matey, and I need to buy a new On This Day. I gave my copy to my youngest.

A few good men by Spencer Vignes is a decent read.

A very enjoyable read I admit. The only problem with Mullers though, is that he is tends to get a bit carried away at times. In the early part of the book he was describing his life in London during the war years. He must have an incredible memory as he was only 3 years of age when the war ended.

Well worth reading nevertheless.

I love the two Carder and Harris books: the history of Brighton and the A-Z. It's great reading about some of the old days ... before even Ben's Grandad was born

I like dipping in and out of On This Day loads of stats and memories

More Than 90 Minutes.

Because those pictures tell a thousand words.

Oh and because I am in it!

They should have got it edited and proofed though.

Riddled with errors.

This. Would love them to be updated.

The Bible.

Following the Albion is often like reading Jeremiah at times. A number of NSCers fitting the role of the 'weeping prophet'.
