Proper Albion pubs

[Notters]

What qualifies a pub as proper Albion? During our first season or two at The Amex, the Battle was frequently "regulars only" after matches, presumably as they didn't want to be overrun by football fans so I am not sure that qualifies it as an Albion pub.

May have changed now of course - I've not been in there regularly after games since 2014ish

Er, I took that to mean Brighton fans only? They certainly always let me in in the stripes... But then I guess I was a regular there too.

There are still quite a few in Brighton that have banned replica shirts.

I wouldn't want to spend money in a Brighton pub that doesn't allow Brighton shirts even though I don't wear replica tops. Which ones have banned them?

Look at that appalling selection of beers/cider.

Nothing behind the jump looks appealing!!

I always remember being in there pre Chelsea in August 83 on the Saturday lunchtime. Doors locked, juke box off and peeking out from behind the curtains as thousands of Chelsea exited the station looking for trouble, we were between 50 and 100 in number. Outgunned.

I don't know about Brighton and Hove, but there's a proper Albion pub in Winchester next to the station called, obviously, . . . . the Albion. A real ale boozer owned (I think) by the Flower Pots brewery of Cheriton. Well worth a visit. Anyone else who's supped there care to comment?

P.S. Don't the "top boys" of Palace drink at the Albion in Selhurst or Thornton Heath or whichever hole it's located. The name of the pub must really stick in their craw.
