15th February 1930
FA Cup 5th Round
Newcastle Utd 3 - 0 Brighton & Hove Albion
Att: 56,469
Brighton had made it to the 5th round by virtue of beating Peterborough & Fletton Utd, Barry Town, Gimsby Town (the giant-killing they were referring to) and Portsmouth.
This was the season where High Vallance scored 30 league goals, a record that stood for 47 years.

Oh golly gosh it is a silent film.
But it will have to be renamed "... Glory Years of 1930-83"! There is some great footage of Brighton and Hove (the towns and their events) in the Pathe archive. One other of my favourites though is British Pathe - ARSENAL IN TRAINING AT BRIGHTON with great shots of the 1938 Arsenal side training at the Goldstone (RIP
), the oldest film from inside the ground maybe (?). The commentary is hilarious - typical Pathe News voice.Alan Duffys sideburns

Heres some footage of our dear old Goldstone in 1938! That Tamplins ad on the North stand was still there in the late sixties!

Classic stuff! I would love to have a camera that filmed in those slightly yellowy early colour pictures....
Yes, some excellent footage of Brighton the seaside town in the early 1970s

I wonder what the point was in putting another - lower - cross bar on the goal about 6 inches below the usual one ?
And I WAS right on re-looking at it - at least one player is training in a three piece suit - with tie!!
