A quiz about stadiums near water. A grim 8/18 for me.

Been a while since we have played GTFC so wondering what memories people have of games past.
Mine are
83/84 - grubbed 5-0 on a blustery day in October, a grim (see what I did there?) indeed.
84/85 - 2-0 down with 15 mins to go, 2-1 down with about 5 mins left - and we won 4-2, I think Hansie...

Hope the above link works, I’m not too savvy on things like this...
Sorry if this has been mentioned elsewhere (I did a search but found nothing) but is it still possible that the above game can still be moved for TV purposes? I’m guessing it can be and if so, anyone any ideas as to date when fixture time and date will be confirmed.
I think this had originally...
The Guardian crossword today was set by Paul, who, I believe, is an Albion fan.
Yet, the answer to 27 across is a phrase/name which I doubt older Brightonians would readily use. *
Being a bit precious here but really…..?
* not giving the answer in case anyone else is trying to do three...
Hi,
I’m always interested in the club v country debate, and will always put my Beloved Seagulls ahead of any national team’s interest. So I was wondering about the good folk of nsc. If you were offered the following options, what would you choose. All purely hypothetical and just a bit of fun...
24 years ago today,
we went to Hereford away,
In the football league we did stay,
to live and fight another day
Not much has happened to us in the intervening period that I can think of...🤔
In yesterday’s Observer, a fan from each one of the Premier league’s teams was asked to predict which teams would be relegated.
Supporters from 5 teams (Aston Vile, Burnley, CraPFC, Leeds and Spurs) Said we will be relegated
Supporters from 7 (All different to the above) said CraPFC will...
It looks like I will have to miss a good few home games whilst I convalesce from surgery . I am thinking of selling back my season ticket for the games I may not be able to attend. If I do this, I guess that I do not get any loyalty points which those games would normally accrue for me, is that...
With Lad Baby poised to get a consecutive Chimbo number 1 with their take on “I love rock ‘n’ roll”, let’s think about next year and what song they could cover next year for the hattrick.
The only rule is that the song title must contain the phrase “rock ‘n’ roll” and that is to be substituted...
Apologies if this was mentioned elsewhere (i could not find anything when I searched) but yesterday was the 30th Annivesary of Kelvin Morton Day. I can't believe this milestone has been missed (yes, I should have posted yesterday).
The highlights of that game are on NSC somewhere and are well...
Sorry if this has been done before, but just an idea for an ongoing game.
Take two alphabets; From the first one, take the first letter, and the same from the second and com up with a person, place, event, whatever that has an Albion connection. So start at A A and come up with something Albion...
At the club shop before the game yesterday, a kid in a Man Utd shirt with Tomboy printed on the back was being restrained at the exit by one of the stewards/bouncers. Was getting a bit heated but the steward was not in the mood to let go despite Tomboy's flailing attempts to get away.
Anyone...
Ladies and Gentlemen, tomorrow night Mr Craig Pawson is officiating.
Fourth official is Stuart Attwell who, if i recall correctly, had such a splendid match when he refereed our home game against Arsenal.

Hope this link works - look who is guest of honour when we play them next month.
Whilst I did not like him as a player purely based on who he played for, it does sound like he had it...
Just had a rug rethink and for some reason thought of the jokes that always came out at school when one went in sporting a new bit of Barnet butchery. The ones which I can recall, to my shame, are:
- Who cut your hair? Want me to get them for you?
- You had a haircut? Which one?
- You had a...
