This really should be a poll

The 60's had maybe better music , but the 70's had the music plus Trevor Hockey .. :bowdown:

No point in the poll, the Sixties obviously

Absolutely. The 60s had groundbreaking music, England won the world cup and Brighton won the Third Division South.

Thread closed surely?
Could only ever be the sixties :thumbsup:

The 1920s

80s for me... heyday of electronic music and two trips to Wembley to watch The Albion!

Crispy Ambulance · Jun 5, 2016

70's for me. First Albion game (72), punk/new wave, Ward, Mullery etc.

It has to be the 1880s.

The Football League was formed, thus providing an exciting competition and infallible governing body for competitive football within England initially.

We also saw Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture and Strauss's Symphony in D Minor published.

I declare this thread closed.

What season was this Division 3 South title won in.

I trust that you havent extened the 1960s so that they start around 1957/8

Best use of a canon in music until AC/DC

1964

1978, plus a year either side of that.
The two together will never be bettered.
For the music alone no other era is even close, let alone with the football that came with it.

It's early Sunday morning, so you're forgiven. 1964/5 season we won Div 4 (Bobby Smith and all that) in days before stupid wages, players using the bus, and before the Premier League.
Yes, 60s for me. Always better when you were a kid.

76/77 for an Albion fan and lover of new wave/punk music had to be the highlight of both music and Brighton footie :moo:

That's the one. I've been awake since 4.15 with a pain in my leg, so half asleep still.

The final year of the Third Division South was 1958. We finished champions beating Watford 6-0 with Adrian Thorne scoring five. We were Fourth Division champions in 1964/65.

Thanks. I've already been put straight.

Even though 76-86 are special years, I can only look forward these days. I have never felt better about the Albion, and am awash in new music. And I'm OLD!

Icy Gull · Jun 5, 2016

So we have moved from the best music and football decade to the one you all grew up in? :lolol:

Whatever, it IS still the Sixties. You had to be there I guess, much much better than any decade since for music certainly and when England actually win something at football again we can have a rethink :wink:

LA1972 · Jun 5, 2016

60s 70s 80s 90s all had their moments of great music and football, funny that music brings back memories of certain games for me, the clothes I was wearing, the pubs I went to etc

Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
