Try Brewers. I believe they supplied the paint for the stadium, and should have on their records the exact mix formula

And what about their 'fans' in the lower East Stand throwing the ball away from the pitch at least twice, if not three times in the last 10 minutes. They were playing little old Brighton, but still wanted to try and waste time. Utter contempt for them all.

Does anyone know whether access to Coldean Lane is still open from the Lewes Road ?

I must have been thought of delusional myself when I was working at Heathrow around 2001. My work colleagues were all 'supporters' of Man U, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool etc and I would come in on Monday mornings after another Zamora wonder show and tell them all that we had a player that would...

Not sure how much in the know he is, but my Postman who is a Brentford fan reckons he is joining us ! Also said that losing him will be the difference between chasing a play off and being mid table.

I think from memory, the ticket allocation was decided some weeks before the end of the season, and at that point in time, Hereford didn't think they would be in any danger. So, as the previous poster says, they thought it would be a good money maker for them, and allowed the Albion a very...

I went about a year ago before driving up to Berlin. The part that the German officers stayed in is now a youth hostel, and the rooms are equipped to a very high standard. Even if not part of the YHA, the rates are very good. Make sure if you go out in the evening that you follow instructions...

I had the woodwork on the front of my house repainted and when I told my decorator I wanted the blue to be Albion blue, he admitted he was not into football. I then gave him a replica shirt to take to his supplier, which was Brewers. When he got there, the young lad behind the counter knew...

All my friends and family have disappeared apart from 2 who don't have enough loyalty points - wtf ??

I have always reckoned we took well over 10k to Spurs in 1977. Their previous home crowds were 26,311 when they beat Bristol Rovers 9-0, and followed that with 30,634 when they beat Burnley 3-0. 2 weeks later the crowd was 48,613 versus the Albion ! It was the first time we had played Spurs...

Swindon and Oldham in L1 as well ?

I also wondered exactly what was the routine at the training centre. Particularly towards the end of last season, fitness training should surely have just been basic warm up, as if you are not fit by then (unless coming back from injury) you shouldn't be a professional footballer ? But looking...

Staines for me. Moved up here in 1996, and still STH

I remember on family holidays heading down to Dorset in the 60's, signs everywhere for a Folkestone to Honiton trunk road. Bits were eventually done like Lewes and Brighton by passes, but the concept was just lost over the years. If that road had ever been completed, think how much traffic...

He was my form teacher in 1972. As a way of teaching maths, he had the class working out the goal average of the Albion, Bournemouth and Notts County who were all chasing the second promotion spot behind Villa. He also made us play 2 touch football, which was one touch to control, and the...

I think I read somewhere that SH had seen video's of last season and said we had possession without purpose. As far as I can see, nothing has changed. We can pass it around the back 4, forward to Holla or JFC then back to the centre backs till the cows come home. Also, most passes are to...

My simplistic view is that the FL has rules. One of these is that the top 2 in the Championship gain automatic promotion, and the next 4 enter the playoffs. QPR went up via these playoffs, so they can hardly argue that only some rules apply to them and not others incl FFP ?

The way Englandfans works is a loyalty scheme. The more games you go to before the tournament, the more 'Caps' you get. Then when a match is likely to be over subscribed, they operate a ballot. But it is done on a 70%/30% split, so that 70% of the tickets go to the most 'loyal' fans. The...

I am doing it for the first time myself tonight, but basically follow signs for Stanmer Park, and then let the stewards direct you. http://www.seagulls.co.uk/documents/travel-final229-1169722.pdf

Sheffield United away in 78/79 when Malcolm Poskett scored our winner was not nice. In those days the 2 teams came out separately before the game, and the Albion were out first to cheers from our away following. Then United came out, and there was a very loud 'United' from right behind us, as...
