***The official Brighton and Hove Albion FC v. Norwich City FC match thread***

[Gilliver's Travels]

Oh I've had many an evening like that, listening to crackly commentary of MU or chelsea just to wait for the Albion score. One evening up late, as James Alexander Gordon was reading the classifieds I sneezed at the precise point that Brighton's score was mentioned, and thus rendered the whole night pointless.

Even worse, I lost reception at halftime with a score of Hereford 1 Brighton 0. Took me two days to find out the final score, in the meantime I was probably the only Brighton fan who thought we had been relegated to the conference.

Know the feeling. Makes it even more special when you do get back to the UK. This time next week I'll be sitting at Elland Road, then it's on to Charlton and finally Withdean (plus a moist-eyed look at the Falmer build) before going back to Crete.

Local fans don't realise how much all that kind of thing means to us Albion expats ...
