When was the last time BHA scored 2 in injury time?

They weren't injury time goals, but I remember going to see the fixture against Spurs on April 2 1983. Albion had been outplayed and were 1-0 down; they then had Chris Ramsey sent-off and appeared to be heading for certain defeat. I had gone with a friend and his father, and we were stood on the East Terrace. We were making our way out of the ground. However, Tony Galvin then got himself sent-off.

Amazingly, Steve Gatting then scored an equalizer with about 7 minutes left. Even more amazingly, sub Gerry Ryan then scored a winner with about 3 minutes left. Scenes of pandemonium, and a personal resolve to NEVER leave a football match early....
Remember that one like yesterday! Spurs fans were sick as parrots!

Boxing Day 97: 4-4, Paul Emblem on loan from Charlton I think scored us a hatrick when we were 3-0 down at HT. Never forget that one in a hurry! Not many there to see that one because we were rubbish and most fans had given up on us as a club...ow how wrong YOU (yes YOU!) were :)

I was a ball boy that day, thanks to Liz Costa. :bowdown:

I was in the North Stand near the top.... when the equaliser went in I ended up nearer the bottom, my glasses dislodged and when the winner went in seconds later - glasses came off and were stamped on in the crush of excitement. Being very short sighted, I had to shuffle off to the Club office after the pandemonium had died down and ring home for a lift (big thanks to Ron Pavey) as I couldn't see further than a few feet.....but I didn't care! Brilliant brilliant days.

Ron Pavey - a special man.

Two goals in the last 3 minutes, I believe. I seem to remember that we were all over them in the second half but couldn't score until that final crazy few minutes. Nelson got at least one of them, I think.

Pompey at the goldstone? Remember 2 very late goals?

Think both were in injury time. Remember the game well - February 25th, 1978. Also remember exactly where I was standing.

More ammunition for my wife who frequently says "How can you remember exactly what happened in a Brighton game forty years ago, but you can't remember what I asked you to do this morning?!"
I remember that so clearly - '& get the same from Mrs KK.
I met Eric's uncle in a Liverpool pub sometime in the late 80's and told him all about it too.

And a well oiled Paul Samrah or was it John Blaine urging the Albion on during the second half over the tannoy. Almost an Albion "let's be 'avin ya " moment.

It was Good Friday, a morning kick-off (11.00 or 11.30, something like that). The Albion were 1-0 down with 8 minutes to go, then boom! We scored three and the final score was 3-1, and kept our promotion push on track. From then, until the end of the season, we played ten more games unbeaten, winning six and drawing four gaining promotion behind Aston Villa.

I was in the South Stand with my Dad. My recollection is that we were totally out of the game (same as with the Potts late show) and got a penalty for a blatant hand ball which was converted by Murray. Beamish got a second and Lutton hit a volley for the third. We had a habit of leaving it late in the run in and scored very late winners at home against Wrexham and Rotherham.

I vaguely remember a newspaper article describing the Albion as the late goal specialists. I believe that in 12 (?) games we scored within the last few minutes to either draw or win matches.
