1. Withdean - Beating wolves 4-1, my first game after an 18 month exile
2. Goldstone - Bristol rovers 2-1 to seal my first promotion/fans united
3. Amex - Donny I guess
4. Priestfield - Made it to about 75% of the home games but missed the 4-4. Walking out at half time when we lost 3-1 to Scunthorpe.

PS Anyone know if Holloway played for The Gas in the 2-1 win at The Goldstone?

Most games at Withdean, most memorable are the 6-0 vs Mansfield, 3-4 vs Rochdale that SOAKED friday night, 2-3 vs Chester and the mass walkout, 1-0 vs Chesterfield, 1-2 vs Swindon, 0-1 vs Torquay (Neville Southall wondershow), 4-0 vs Blackpool (Kuipers save), 1-5 vs Stoke!

Was just thinking the same about Priestfield
I can only remember defeats. Losing 4-0 at home to darlo is hard to shake off.
I did manage to bring back one happy memory though, smoking a fat one on that crappy terrace singing bee and wasp related chants to the Mansfield(?) keeper who was wearing an orange and black hooped kit. "What a waste of honey". Was the keeper Lee Harrison? He joined in, making some wing movements. I also seem to remember the "woooooah" in "your shit ahhhh" was replaced with buzzing. Great terrace banter that day.

I just recall the days always feeling dark and dingy, grey skies and loads of traffic out.(why on earth did I do it to myself!?!) But yes, the fans often had to entertain themselves as the football certainly didnt.

Most Games: Goldstone as I was A ball boy their quite regularly...
Aside from the Doncaster game, one of the most memorable moments was A pitch invasion when I was A ball boy.
I just googled it think it was the Lincoln one? Sure it was A night game, so dont think it was the York match. Full grown geezers jumping over my head screaming, I nearly shit myself haha I think people had heads of Bill Archer or Bellotti with arrows going through them and chanting about burning their house down etc all My memory isn't too clear, I was only about 10yrs old, I just remember hearing screams and tense atmosphere and people vying for Bellotti's or Archers blood.

Probably the 7-0 battering we gave Charlton Athletic one very sunny Saturday afternoon after me and my mate were chased round the train station by about 30 rabid Charlton knuckle daggers we upset I think I was about 14/15 ha ha ha ha !!!
If I remember we had won it by half time 5 -0 up and Charlton were unbeaten when we played them.
Made it even better !!!

Most : Goldstone Ground (RIP).
Most memorable at each: I'll go slightly different to vary this up
Goldstone - Brighton 2 Liverpool 0, FA Cup, 1984. Just an amazing day.
Priestfield - Brighton 1 Millwall 5, some noddy cup. Memorable for all the wrong reasons, it was just a dreadful low all round, a night when I truly despaired for what had happened to this club.
Withdean - Sticking 8 past Northwich Victoria! My mate, Chris, has spent years cursing that he missed it when we stuck 7 past Charlton at the Goldstone. Years and years of "I've never seen 7", and he really grated with him. Then we stick 8 past Northwich, and once again Chris missed it. Unbelievable Jeff!
Amex - Donny. Can't take an alternative view to this one. The Donny game just had EVERYTHING!!!

A memorable game a priestfield for me was that game on boxing day, coming from 3-0 down at half time back to 3-3, them going behind again before we got a really soft penalty in the last few minutes to make it 4-4.

Of course, the Goldstone Ground was not the first home of the Albion...
Anyone used to go to the home matches at the County Ground? Great days.

Goldstone most games. Just. The win to seal promotion against one of the Brizzles was corking. Bremner leaping like a salmon and just hanging there till the ball hit his noggin....
Priestfield. Cant remember. One of Hortons last games. I beleive Paul Armstrong was strutting his stuff that day. Woeful. Only went once.
Withers - probably the drubbing of Northwich Victoria in the cup. My sons first game.
Amex. Burnley for atmosphere. Leeds 3-3 for drama. Palace 0-2 for I dont beleive that just happened.
