Agreed. I am a wobbly tenor. A few semitones could do it. Google says the following. Perhaps the Albion media team can work on it.... You can change the key of a song digitally by using any digital audio workstation, or any other pitch shifting tools at your disposal. Moving the master file or...

Fantastic effort DS. Thank you. The bulk of my Albion watching days were at The Goldstone so I'll be re-visiting your thread for sure. I'm not holding my breath but I hope the Mark Lawrenson box to box goal versus Wolves (League Cup 1979?) is in there somewhere. Thanks again.

In the clock end with one of my brothers and some of the lads from the Sunday morning football team. Aperitifs were taken at the Princess Louise in Holborn. Memorable day.

Seconded.

Absolutely brilliant. Thank you for posting @Tom Bombadil

January 1979. Wolves in the F A Cup at the Goldstone. Ball rolled out to Mark Laurenson on the edge of our box. He ran straight down the middle of the pitch towards the north stand and shot from the edge of theirs. I think he outpaced one or possibly two players, while Gerry Ryan and others...

Coldean? Excuse me!!! If you were able to get past the Hikers Rest unscathed, it was a haven of tranquillity. First line of defence was the severe looking woman who ran the chip shop at the bottom of Park Street. She took no nonsense from anyone.

Spot on. And as Paul Barber has said, "it's the players out on loan that we are most excited about". Ps. Goldstone vintage opinion.

I hope McConville makes the bench against Ipswich. It would be another affirmation of the pathway through to the senior squad. A tenuous opinion based on nothing other than his demeanour as he waited to come on against Norwich, then apparent composure on the pitch as @Guinness Boy...

Finally got around to watching it, and fully appreciative of how people see things differently. For me, I didn't have to read between the lines too deeply to realise he kept referring, directly or indirectly, to his Albion experience. Either his principles matched those of Tony Bloom and Paul...

Hornes - for everything a MAN (wants?). Just meant school uniforms for me, and very pricey they were too. Cost my parents an 'arm and a leg'.

Thanks for replying and good on your dad! How times have changed, as so often demonstrated in this thread.

Great stuff. As easy as that. Thank you very much. Published under his pen name, George Moreton.

That's him! Not scary at all. Blimey, I was a wimp back then. I'll keep an eye out for the book and will report back if I track down a copy.

I grew up in Coldean, but my doctor, Hillary Jarvis, had his surgery at 'The Level' end of Park Crescent. Scared the living daylights out of me as a nipper. Severe looking man. I understand he was a RAF officer flying in bombers (as a navigator?) in WW2. Shot down and captured. He wrote a book...
