I know the Lewes Arms has been talked about on NSC. I hear that a previous landlord now runs The Eclipse. The last time I went it was run by a family who supported Man U. Anyone been lately, is it still good or improved?

I set my still unsurpassed drinking record in there one Saturday night in the early Eighties...
12 pints!

I think I can remember ALL of the landlords of the Lewes Arms - going back to the sixties. I'm even sort of related to one of them. I don't think any of them have landed up at the Eclipse.

Related? You should cut back on the beer Ed.
Is he playing for Whitehawk at the moment?
pwopper nawty was they??
After 2 away games you really have become a bit of an anorak . I am sure that you know 1 or 2 of them however. Oh and yes they could be "pwopper nawty".

According to an advert in the programme for the Hove Beer Fest. it is run by a guy called Toby Dawson. Formally of the Lewes Arms and Hand in Hand.

Blimey!
I take it back. It's a good few years since he left the Lewes Arms, though.

We used to go back there on Sunday lunch times about 7 years ago after playing for the mighty BHA Utd. Was very Albion friendly in those days. On another drink related note, good to see a few shirts at the Hove Beer festival on Saturday night!
Used to pop in there for a quick pint at 11am before moving on to the Hove Park Tavern which opened at midday and then on to the Goldstone at 2.55!!
For games such as Leeds it was one of the few pubs that remained open.
I remember it being burnt down as well!!! Also enjoyed a few after match beers there after BHA Utd games.
The supporters club also used to hold its meetings in the room upstairs, not sure if they do now.
