Fans might be interested in the story of former keeper Bob 'Pom-Pom' Whiting, and his service in WW1. He features in a commemorative exhibition opening this summer at Brighton Museum - http://tinyurl.com/o558fbu. He's one of 15 local people in the War Stories exhibition.

just bouncing this as i went to see this a couple of weeks ago and found the whole exhibition incredibly moving - not just the story about Pom Pom Whiting but all the others as well. if its still on then its well worth visiting and free.
 


Tragic story, did the right thing running away from it all and damn shame they caught up with him
