That makes you feel old, it was nearly 28 years ago, most of the current 1st team weren't born then
It's like saying McKenna wasn't even born when El Tel took over at Barcelona, who was recommended by Sir Bobby btw |  | | |

The time difference is greater between Play off Final (which seems like yesterday) and now - than the years between said play off final and our FA Cup final win (which I remember little of) despite being there as a 12 year old. |  |

Growing up, Brighton were the type of team we sent our kids out to gain some experience in the third or 4th tier. Last week they beat Ajax at their place in a European competition… | | | |

Bloody hell, mate. I didn't need to know that. FA Cup win feels like ancient history to me, whereas I can vividly remember hugging random strangers when Stewart made it 3-1. [Post edited 29 Nov 2023 16:53]

What you are saying is that we are due some modicum of success, then. |  |

FA Cup win or promotion this season, which would you go for? Daft as this wild have sounded in 1978, I'd have to favour promotion. | |

I’d go FA Cup.
Promotion and you have 50/50 chance of relegation and all the sh1t that goes with it.
FA Cup is on your record forever. | |

I would choose the FA Cup. However, promotion is far more realistic. Being back in Europe would be nice. | |

Just think the impact on us as a club of going up would be much more significant than winning the FA Cup. If we were, say, Norwich and had never tasted FA Cup glory (and weren't likely to get promoted either) I'd maybe feel differently though. | |

The way the club is being run, promotion in the next few seasons seems inevitable, though. FA Cup success is not. | |

Bus drivers like the one I had at the weekend who look about 14.
Of course, this is Swansea so there’s a chance he was a teenager who’d car-jacked the bus. Or bus-jacked, I suppose. |  |

Minor driving move - guy pulls right in front of me and I think it's road rage time. He proceeds to tell me off and I ask him'what are you a policeman? ' to which he says yeah. Arf. Whipper snapper scroat. | |

Does being admonished by a "steward" who is young enough to be my grandson count? | |
