who went to Brighton / Notts county

[Bigtomfu]

Yep.

Only time i've ever painted my face for a match, and we lost. (I was only 11 at the time)
Won't be repeating that experiment.

 

[Gary Leeds]

I was there, does that mean I have priority on tickets for this year? Went to the cup final as well if that helps

 

[Icy Gull]

Ditto. I may be wrong here but was that not the very first year the play-offs were introduced?

Not sure about that but the following season was the 1st of the Premier League?

I was there and even back then Warnock's team were cynical and professional cheats slowing the game down with feigned injuries every time we were having a good spell.

 

[Premiership Dream]

Me and my mates 20 years old at the play off finals 91

 

[Green Cross Code Man]

Yes I was there. Also cried after.

 

[Triggaaar]

Yep (I don't think I cried, and I cry all the time)

 

[Bladders]

I was there. It was the day before I started my first ever job as a van drivers assistant (van boy)

Saw John Robinson walking through Newhaven on my first day of work.

 

[Skaville]

Loads of memories. I was a student in London so I saw very little of the Albion that year. My Brighton mates came to stay at mine and we had a really long game of footy on west ham park the night before, then got on it. I was still pissed from the night before when I arrived at The Lord Nelson in Old Street, my first experience of strippers.

County were a good side. Mark draper and tommy Johnson were quality. I loved Dean Wilkins interview after the game. Amazing that he was so upset that we lost he had forgotten that he had scored at Wembley.

When I got home, tired, emotional and alone I discovered that my landlady had pinched my chequebook. Gutted

 

[LeicestershireGull]

Sadly,yes.Came back from Australia where I was living at the time.....I haven't been able to look at that big green program since.

 

[wilko1]

Oh yes...was working the Wembley Confererence Centre day before, and after.......and staying in Wembley Hilton...together with Warnock and Notts County...their smug faces, I will always remember after the game...I was gutted

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Yep.

 

[Driver8]

I did but can't remember too much about it except we were crap. We never looked like winning it at all.

 

[Rambo]

I was in the Olympic Gallery that day, amazing view, terrible result. Can't believe I was only 17. Never thought I would get to do it again, here's hoping...

 

[Barnham Seagull]

 

[The Birdman]

The Surporters turned up but the team didn't .

 

[Blackadder]

Yep. I was there.

We have only been in the play-offs twice before but we have always made the final.

When we were 6th we lost, convincingly.

When we were fourth, we won promotion.

We can't be 6th this season................

 

[sully]

I was there. A big disappointment of a day, sadly. I'm glad the stadium's been rebuilt as we never won at the old one.

 

[Muhammed - I’m hard - Bruce Lee]

I was so drunk I thought it was only 2-1 til I woke up the next day.

Remember getting kicked out the Ark pub in Newhaven at 2am 'cos they were shutting, only to remember that I didn't live in Newhaven any more...I lived in Pompey.
Got my old mum up at half 2 in the morning and asked if my old room was still free

 

[jimhigham]

I remember poor Dean Wilkins in tears.

 

[Seat Stealer]

My eyes have never been the same since....no no...not upset.....just our kit
