I had the pleasure of watching Albion Rovers (Coatbridge) in August 2023, in what turned out to be their last campaign before relegation to the Scottish Lowland League.
It's a lovely old ground and the people I met were really friendly.
Thousands depart from the town every weekend to follow...
Good afternoon NSCers,
All roads lead to =AZVTB0qP83po3SJ8lCfjN07AAHCtDt5_dB3iMA5F_B4zJZ4rliVlhZe_uShD_YrqYt9WStDOPXngZwg2T5NGkbFnjz_ZUO6C7fIbKM0wytjhiYsb06yxId97fqCSwJoxWJs&__tn__=-]K-R']The Caxton Arms in North Gardens, Brighton this evening for the launch of my new book, Brighton & Hove...
Good evening,
I'm doing two book signings next week.
Everyone's welcome.
Brighton:
Mark Brailsford (Treason Show) will be hosting a Q & A with the author.
Worthing:
Ian Hart (@Lenny Rider) will be hosting a Q & A with Albion legend Alan Mullery.
Good afternoon,
I've just self-published my third book on the Albion, Brighton & Hove Albion On This Day.
I've completely re-written the second edition and added an additional 27,000 words to include stand-out moments from the last 13 years.
It's 276 pages of Albion history, is an easily...
Last game the Goldstone, we lost to Sudbury Town on penalties in the FA Cup first-round replay.
I can't find a match report anywhere.
I'm sure their keeper scored the winner in the shoot-out and a postman scored their goal in normal time?
Friend of mine is auctioning this signed Albion shirt from last season:

100% of monies raised goes to a school in Epsom.
I've noticed many more people referring to Albion fans as 'seagulls' or a 'seagull'.
Way more than previously.
I am an Albion fan, or if outside of Sussex, a Brighton fan.
Just wondering if there's a reason...
The internet has replaced fanzines but do people still want paper?
Is there still a desire for quality content instead of the occasionally illiterate hyperbole on some social media platforms?
The excellent Football Focus feature on the Killie Hippo yesterday got me wondering...
This Friday, three friends and I will join a hundred others in the centre of Hove, sleeping rough to help raise money and awareness of the ever-growing homeless problem in Brighton and the south-east.
Every penny collected goes to the YMCA who will use the funds to house vulnerable youngsters...
Apologies, but I've looked everywhere for the thread where it highlighted Albion's superb calendar year of 2016, compared to Palace's atrocious one.
Can someone direct me to a link please?
Big thanks in advance.

It doesn't matter if it loses a few quid, it's about presence and familiarity.

I'll post a list of stockists later on.
Other than Seagulls Down Under, do we have any other supporters clubs, or regular foreign gatherings, anywhere else in the world outside of Sussex and London?
