Kerry Mayo

Whats the Griffin Park thing? Was it an LDV game that we were drawn at home for and played there as Withdean was underwater?

That's the one, I went and saw McCammon score!

Correct. Drew 2-2 if i remember

Is Kerry Mayo the only Brighton and Hove Albion footballer in the whole wide world who is named after two Irish counties and has played at four different home grounds for the same club?




Seriously - hadn't realised the last bit (I'd only counted three) It could be the base for a great pub quiz question "Which league team has had 4 home grounds in the last ten years"?
Hopefully it will soon be 5 in 12 years and if they keep giving Mayo dodgy contracts he'll probably play there too

And lost on penalties.

Am I right in thinking that Mayo got sent off? Someone did.

No. It was Cullip.

Brighton 2-2 Brentford (win on pens)

Brentford advanced into the quarter-finals of the LDV Vans Trophy southern section courtesy of a 4-2 penalty shoot-out victory over Brighton.

Brighton's Paul Brooker opened the scoring after 24 minutes after he fired home from 12 yards via the right-hand post.

And three minutes later an Andy Crosby cross from the right was met by the unmarked Bobby Zamora in the six-yard box who powered home a header.

Brentford pulled a goal back after 35 minutes when a Paul Gibbs free-kick was headed down by Michael Dobson and Scott Marshall fired home from close range to reduce the arrears.

10 minutes after the break Danny Cullip was red-carded for an incident with Mark McCammon.

The numerical advantage allowing Brentford to dominate the second half and 12 minutes from time they equalised when McCammon headed home from close range.

Brentford failed to get the winner in extra-time as goalkeeper Michel Kuipers pulled off several brilliant saves.

Darren Freeman and Paul Watson missed penalties for Brighton and Paul Evans missed for the Bees, but Brentford ran out 4-2 winners.

That was Virgo debut I think, and there was a cock up with ticketting on the night ?

I honestly don't remember that game... did we get to have the majority of the stadium and the Brentford fans had to go in the away end?

I found an intersection of two streets, Kerry and Mayo, in Jo'burg last year. Wish I'd had my camera to take a photograph.
