Brighton in Europe

[Ernest]

Some of us have seen the Albion play the likes of Real Madrid, Psv Eindhoven and Standard Liege in Europe

Scotland please, Albion havent come up here since 81 i think

 

[acrossthepond]

Wouldn't that be amazing! Especially away

Me in bed with Penelope Cruz, Scarlett Johansson and Rebecca Hall would also be amazing. I think it's more likely to happen for me than the Albion...

At home or away wouldn't matter too much to me...

 

[Mendoza]

it will be well good, we can get there, call it the proudest moment in the clubs histrory and a monumental achievement. We can then field weakened teams so we can "concentrate on the league"

 

[turienzo's lovechild]

amsterdam would be nice

 

[Bwian]

Shit hole? And it's got better bars than Littlehampton.

Beirut has got better bars than Littlehampton...

I don't mean champions league as were just not going to get there but pre-season?, instead of f***ing Crawley or Havant ( just a thought as it would be nice )

Once upon a time we used to play Real Madrid , Manchester Utd, Liverpool, Steaua Bucharest, in our pre-season friendlies!

All previous European champions

There should be some sort of League 1 equivelent of the champions league, playing 3rd division teams from across Europe!

Brighton playing in Euorpe would be a dream come true. It would be top stuff going across Europe to watch them. Might have to wait a while though.

Did any of you lot go to Portugal with Barry Lloyd's team. Great memories especially when the two lads from Millwall joined up with us!

 

[KNC]

Agree with the Le Havre comments. Was not impressed, yet
across the river is the stunningly beautiful Honfleur.

Watching Brighton play in a European league/cup game however unlikely would surely be the pinnacle of supporting the Albion. Imagine travelling amongst a couple of thousand Brighton fans across Europe drinking in a foreign plaza a few hours before a big game with big f***-off Brighton flags draped around the square in a warm autumn evening,now that would be a bit special.

There is already. It's called the Europa League.

 

[ArfurW8]

Anybody remember a trip to Den Haag ? Or is my memory playing tricks on me

 

[Olliebha]

On Football Manger 2010 I'm managing BHAFC and we had pre-season friendlys against Middelsborough, Everton and Villarreal! All at home though.

 

[smudge]

Sporting Lisbon away would be a pleasant trip. Afternoon in the sun down at Cascais then jump on the rattler to the ground. I can't help think that it would mean a lot more to us than these Prem Tossers who treat the Europa League it with complete disdain; as they do the FA Cup.
Still, the prem is the promised land where just surviving even by playing negative football is what matters. Even giving 3 points to a big club is seen as normal in the quest to finish 4th from bottom.
