Homophobia in Football - BBC South East Today
After highlighting the homophobic abuse that
Brighton and Hove Albion fans are subjected to on
our blog, the news story was picked up by a number
of media outlets. Here is the report that the local
news show BBC South East Today produced on the
matter on their 31st October edition |

over the stadium |

Brighton and Hove Albion's season is missed as
Ashley Barnes sees his spot kick saved by

really mattered as they had been champions for two
weeks! |
 |
Championship Celebrations at Walsall
It's fair to say that
the away sections of the Bescot Stadium were going
pretty mental when Elliott Bennett scored the

deserved standing ovation. Relive it all with our
short collection of video clips |

far - and hopefully there will be many more to come
- sign him up Gus! |

The

classic song put to classic memories. The Goldstone
Rap was released as the B Side of an LP to celebrate
the Albion's run to the FA Cup Final of 1983. Long
forgotten by most fans, We Are Brighton bring it

Worst
Own Goals Ever
Micky
Adams second spell at the Albion was, to all intents
and purposes, a disaster. He wasn't given much help
by his players doing what are best described as
un-necessary things to throw away games. Here, Colin
Hawkins and Adam Hinshelwood do just that, with
two of the all-time classic own goals against Hartlepool
United and Colchester United taking place just a
month apart

Micky
Adams - Nathan Jones Disagreement
The
post-match interviews at Yeovil Town's Huish Park
degenerate into farce following a 1-1 draw in September
2008. Micky Adams is unhappy with ex-Albion legend

Joe Anyinsah on his full debut for the club, and

down the tunnel, he cuts his interview short to
confront Jones

of the Albion's new home

That's
Zamora!
A
decade ago, a young striker called Robert Zamora
began making a name for himself with some stunning
goals for Brighton and Hove Albion. This, in turn,
spawned a popular terrace anthem of an adaptation
of Dean Martin's song "That's Amore".
Eventually, some Albion fans got together and recorded
their own version of the song, which we have put
some of Zamora's finest goals to
