Millwall at home 75-76 ish. Those clowns in sugical masks. Mind you, I remember Brighton going toe to toe with 'em at Hove station. I was about 14-15 & very proud! (Silly me!)

Well, you might ask the same about 75% of the stuff on NSC; but at least this is vaguely football related!

Like events in Italy and Spain last week I suppose..........silly me!
I was lucky enough to Police many of the aforementioned matches and nobody ran faster than the Brighton fans...in the opposite direction...........there you are, I've lowered myself to join in.

Well, I certainly ran in the opposite direction on both occasions and am not ashamed to admit it. I went to watch football and regarded running away as an act of self preservation. But as a historical question about violence at the Goldstone, this thread seems a reasonable question to ask.

I remember Oxford it was 1984 not last game though police horses in Hove Park a special cun sorry constable grabbed my arm but I convinced him I was running to get home through the park to get home and away from the trouble lucky he didn'y know I was running the opposite way to Hangelton

Chelsea '83 was the worst. Total carnage everywhere - the Bill totally lost the plot and the sutuation. My sister was in the lego stand and they chucked a scaffolding pole which just missed her (for younger fans - the lego stand was made of scaffolding poles and bits of blue metal - made the South Stand at Withdean look permanent).
Tottenham '78 also horrible. I remember Spurs thugs smashing an old man in the face - one guy's rings digging into the old guy's face - very brave!

PG.

Chelsea -FA Cup - 1973
The North Stand was infiltrated by a large number of Shed boys, who made their presence known in a rather forceful manner .
Portsmouth Easter Monday 1973
I think every London football "firm " was represented at the Goldstone that day ,and for some reason they all seemed to have a grudge against Brighton.

I was there

It was FUN going back home with them on the train!
