Weird how certain things stick in the memory, or images, as I have said re Robinson in a Brighton kit, more than Liverpool or the Brighton Centre Half that wore the headband, that image remains long after I forgot his name!
Steve foster,Brighton player with headband?
Yes that's the guy, I suppose you could say he was hard to forget, white headbands that looked like it was made from an offcut of a bath towel weren't exactly commonplace!
Got changed in the old cricket pavilion in 1975 i think it was - last game of the season v QPR , drew 1-1 and Furphy was the manager (Silent will tell me if I'm right or if my memory fails) . We played in the supporters club five a side final before kick off (lost 3-0 to Killamarsh - they had at least 6 ringers in their team). Happy happy daysLast ever cricket match
Was there too, behind the goal - Sabella`s first goal for us - took them all on and side footed it into the left hand side of the goal
Big Steve Faulkner (i think) Speedy Magedy - is it? (apologies for wrong spelling) Bradford , Franks , 1976 version of Brewster = Chris Guthrie (as in CF record signing at 100k) - Great photo
We played against QPR in our last home game of the 1973-74 season and in the first game of the 1974-75 season. The pavilion got demolished in 1981/82
Just shows you how much you (i mean me) forgets. 73/74 hey. I know it was the last game of the season and Ken Furphy presented me with my losers medal - he said - why are the losers medal always the smallest - i just looked at my medal and smiled . We played across the pitch and i remember getting the ball out of the net in front of the kop as it went out for a throw in . So excited and still am remembering that day - i was 13 - thanks for the info
Very well said. I have an insulting reference to Jimmy Greaves to post tomorrow. In order to maintain the ‘no falling out’ on this thread, it will be posted on a different thread
You can probably guess which one.
Don't you dare say anything bad about Bert's hero.Very well said. I have an insulting reference to Jimmy Greaves to post tomorrow. In order to maintain the ‘no falling out’ on this thread, it will be posted on a different thread
His second game for us was Leicester away, night match. I am sure he scored a screamer and i thought then we had bought a decent player. Along with Steve Finnieston and Sabella i really had high hopes for that season.....needless to say it ended up shit with worse to follow!
Completely agree, I thought Finnieston would make a huge difference, just checked and my memory is way off, thought he only played a couple of games before disappearing with a serious injury, stats say 23 games signed 1978 retired in his mid 20s in 1980
It was his first match. Signed for us on the Monday after our home defeat to Orient. I would always remember his comment in the Star "I always thought Sheffield was at the other side of the world but today I realised that it is only two hours drive up the M1". He must be a fast driver then!
he got injured more times than mousett
Yes, bang on Silent...i do actually remember him signing a day or so before the Leicester game now. As i mentioned earlier, I REALLY thought we were on our way upwards that season..
Which of course is why Chelsea let him gohe got injured more times than mousett
No they were younger than me
Yes in October 1972. We lost 3-1. McAlister is the keeper
How the fuck do you get the shuttlecock back from down there ????
when you look at that photo and the lane today its unbelievable
