I’m writing a book about Liverpool's promotion campaign of 1961-62 and, for each away game, I'm trying to capture the flavour of football in that era. Liverpool visited Brighton in mid-September 1961, when the Seagulls became the first team to take a point off Liverpool that season (0-0 draw). I'd be interested in anyone's memories about following Brighton around that time, whether or not they can remember this particular game. I’m looking for things like the differences in watching the game back then, where the away fans generally congregated at the old Goldstone ground, what the home support was like and anything else that gives an insight into what it was like watching football in the early 1960s.
Hope you can help. Cheers.
