[Football] What was your first away game?

[One Teddy Maybank]

Is this the one we lost 1-0 having missed a penalty?

Thought we drew 0-0, though wouldn’t swear to it.

Was that on a snowy Easter day? I away on a camp, but my family told me it was freezing.

I went to that game, Meade equalised and I thought we would go on and win it, but alas.

Bloody grim ground, grim fans, in a grim town.

really , went around a few of their pubs before the game , some local said you've brought a good team with you

They would not let us in to the pub across the road from the ground.

Brighton Vrs Walsall at Craven Cottage FA replay neutral ground I think.

Aldershot away. On the coach with a packed lunch. 1-1 draw over Easter. Ward scored for us.

Vivid memory of one lone copper going into their end, which we had taken, and then his helmet being thrown around like a beachball for the rest of the game. Pitch invasion at end. Both crossbars got broken.

All a lot to take in for a young 'un!

ask highway about the cross bar

 

[The Birdman]

Aldershot sometime in the 70s. It was the game when the crossbar was broken after the final whistle.

Don’t remember seeing an Aldershot fan all day!

7000 brighton fans out I think 11,000 first coach I ran £1 a head on a Crawley Dales coach got to Aldershot early went to a pub called the Trafalgar bought the soldiers a couple of pints showed some respect other Brighton fans didn't a few black eyes.

We played several times at Aldershot in the 70s always interesting. I think Peter O,Sullivan missed a penalty in one game the Aldershot player stuck a lump of mud behind the ball.i think we had two way games that weekend and I went to both on crutches the other was Millwall.

No, we won - 1-0, and I remember it specifically because my Dad sat us in the main stand, pressed on my shoulder to stop me jumping up when we scored and half the bloody ground started jumping around!
