A football writer and researcher would like to hear from Brighton & Hove Albion fans who attended the 1983 FA Cup Final against Manchester United.
Matt Eastley has already written books about fans’ experiences at FA Cup Finals in the 1960s and 1970s, and is now turning his attention to the 1980s.

Matt told seagulls.co.uk, "The FA Cup Final used to be, by some distance, the greatest day in the domestic sporting calendar.“I'm interested in keeping the spirit of this great competition alive by documenting the FA Cup Final through the eyes of fans who were there.
