What were British Caledonian like to fly with?

Were Phoenix Brewery's beers any good?

What the hell did NOBO actually do?

Or, if you're really keen, how do you find your American Express Card?

yeh was gonna say you still see NOBO's around in office's to this day

1st IT solutions are surely the forgotten men of Albion sponsors. Worn in our great escape season and the Poyet League One title season but seldom discussed. A very random sponsor sandwiched in between Skint and AMEX (via Brighton and Hove Jobs.com)

is Palookaville part of the CANON of Albion sponsors as separate to Skint or is it considered merely a by-product of our Skint sponsorship?

It was Fatboy Slims album of the time coming out I believe.

I still have the stretchy away shirt. The Guy Butters Upton Park commemorative kit.

yes so it was an album released under Skint records- is it considered a separate sponsor to Skint by the Albion faithful?

Well the cash came from the same bloke, so I guess it was a "spin-off" sponsor. We still wore Skint for that season, with Palookaville just making a few guest showings, if memory serves.

Phoenix brewery was part of Watney’s so if you enjoy drinking cat’s piss then you would have enjoyed their beers.

Probably tongue in cheek but I'll bite anyway. There are a lot of criticisms that could be thrown at Donatello but surely being overpriced isn't one of them?!

Palookaville shirt was the stretchiest shirt ever. And the more you wore it, the stretchier it got. Sadly never survived a trip to the launderette. Lord alone knows what material it was made of, but one machine wash and it made the wearer look like they were suffering from an extreme form of dandruff. Not a great look

Phoenix may have sold crap beer but they helped set up Gerry Ryan at the Witch Inn which became a regular haunt for many years.

ITs are still in Burgess Hill
