    ... if they win tomorrow.

    What an atmosphere that'll be if they do.

    This is a club that almost vanished and had to play wherever they were allowed.

    Great for Brighton, and a man called Potter, but also gives me hope and the feeling that, perhaps, money isn't everything in the game.

    Haway Brighton, give Pep a bust lip for wanting their second team to take a place in our leagues.

    My 1st away game was at the Goldstone ground around 1986. We lost 3-1.
    Left Washington on a supporters bus at midnight and got to Brighton for 9am.
    Great memories.
    Nothing bad to say about Brighton tbh.

    We went to that and couldn't find a pub that'd let us in.

    We found a social club, opposite a building site, and told the fella on the door we were there for six months and liked a drink ...

    ... they took us in and put free sandwiches on <laugh>

    I'm sure there was a large field somewhere outside the ground we all played a game of football on. The Goldstone was a proper old ground.
