Brighton were so skint during their time playing at the Priestfield that they put a piece in the local player asking fans to send donations. After the Amex was built they put a tile in the walkway outside for each fan that helped out with a message of their choice.

Fantastic research, thanks for the great video. I was at Edgar street all those years ago as a 21 year old very nervous but in the end relieved Brighton fan

Yeah we would have done I’m sure, massive game and we were having an awful season with everything happening off the field too. Btw typo earlier, I was 31, so I was at those 1983 fa cup final games as a 16 year old, feel old now but so proud of what we’ve achieved since those bad 90s

Felt for you guys getting relegated. Correct about the “Skint” sponsorship, Fat boy Slims record label back then

I used to work for Brighton foundation and visited the stadium many times for meetings etc, lovely place, lovely club.

loved this particular video Ryan , followed the seagulls alongside MUFC in the eighties and funnily enough has just purchased the FA Cup final shirt that Joe brought you. Great to see that a football club like Brighton with the correct owner , structure and investment can rise from the brink and be successful again - A club who deserve their current success and not to far away from winning a trophy😀❤🤍🖤💙🤍.

Perfect purchase that 83 shirt - great for Brighton getting to the final - great for United winning it 😁🍻

7:04 Ahh class, it’s Joe! What a lovely bloke, chatted to him a few times on a podcast me and my mates run. 😃 Would love a trip to the AmEx one day, looks fantastic!

Not Brighton fan but the way the club established itself to the highest level is amazing

Great video of the stadium! I remember the days back at the Goldstone, spent alot of my youth there and along with the protests (which I took part in at the time)

Oh mate, that was worth waiting for ! Well done great video as usual plus the history of the club. I was there at the Withdean in 2008 I think when we beat Man City on penalties in the Cup. Real cool that you tracked down the old Goldstone ground too. As for the club shop visit and trusting your card with someone else, brilliant. Well edited video Ry, cracking and funny plus a good ending to show how far the club has come from losing to United in the FA Cup in 1983 to beating Roma 1-0 at home in the Europa League.

Thanks for watching as always mate and glad you enjoyed it 👍🏾 lots of respect for Brighton 🤝🏼

Brilliant video Ry! If I remember it was Kerry Mayo ( the man named after two Counties in Ireland) who equalised for Albion Vs Hereford. I lived on Elm Grove in Brighton and I thought Albion were great in the community. I frequently would catch The 25 bus up to Falmer Stadium. Next time your in Brighton Have a look at Dot Purvis house in Ryde Road which is painted in Blue with The Club Crest on the front of the house and the previous crest in stained glass.

the ticket i had was for the open side at the goldstone which is never the best,mike gattings brother steve was the captain and i got the freebie cos the shop i managed sold raffle tickets for brighton,the guy that used to bring the tickets round was a former chelsea player of the 50s but his name escapes me cheers ry great channel

02:01 With such good memories that lad, would go on to abandon his home town team for some Manchester Club.

The PooGate story wasn't quite correct as one of the Palace players came out with the truth once. It was the driver of the Palace kit van (not a Brighton fan who was driving the coach) who had a dodgy stomach, shall we say, when setting up the away dressing room. Did his best to clear up the mess he left in the toilet but made it worse and kept it quiet. Holloway finds the mess when Palace turned up, tells Brighton and uses it as their own motivation. Meanwhile Gus then goes on a massive personal witch hunt after we had lost thinking it was someone from Brighton which ultimatly helped lend a hand to him getting sacked. Great video Ry, I was 17 when our clubs met on that fateful day and it truely is amazing how fortunes have differed. Hope the pheonix Hereford club make it back to the Football League, to think about how that could've been us (The National League wouldn't have allowed us to ground share so we would've gone out of existance that year) is nothing but a reality check to a lot of our fans when things haven't gone as well since that day.

@@RysFootyParadise Yes, definitely. Another club that appear to be being asset stripped. You would've thought the Football League would learnt from what happened with us and sadly not the first since us and probably won't be the last. Did you know our former owners sold the Goldstone Ground to a developer they also had ties with for £6m, only to knock it down and sell on again for an almost £20m profit. So while the club earnt enough to pay of it's then debt's, they were the only real winners from it.

FatboySlim was a club shirt sponsor with his record label Skint and a massive Brighton fan that has a season ticket and also has a 12% share in the club.
