Spuds FA Cup Matchday Special
7 FEB 2022 · It’s the Noisy Boys making all the noise. A sizeable posse of repBEERobates assembled pre match to impart their words of wisdom (most predicting an Albion win (hmm)). There were pod debuts aplenty in the form of Wedge, Brian The Geordie Seagull and some gloating Spuds fan in corporate, but it was not to be for the beautiful team this time, exiting this year’s competition courtesy of a 3-1 defeat in The Smoke.
There was also time for a nice little post match debate on the mercenary scale of tolerance of football fans in relation to disreputable owners, a classic late night pub topic I’m sure you’ll agree!
Stand or fall! UTA! Down with Kane going down like a sack of Spuds!

Transfer Special, Down The Pub
3 FEB 2022 · So another transfer window ends and Albion have been busy. Pete, Russ and The Gent take a deep dive into the ins and outs, plus there’s a reflection on Paul Barber’s online fans’ forum event.
Stand or fall! UTA! Watch out for slamming windows!

“Albion Draw 1-1 & Watford Sack Coach. Shock Horror!” Leicester Review
26 JAN 2022 · Russ and Pete welcomed Raymond The Gent back to discuss an extraordinary turn of events at the weekend.
Albion went one down and then came back to draw 1-1. Yes, yes, we know. It’s utterly fanciful stuff but it’s true we tell ya! Really, it is, honest! Oh and Watford sacked their coach again. Next you’ll be telling us night follows day follows night! Ha! As if!
Yes it’s the weekend when we brought the Albion curse to Worthing Fc’s Woodside Road ground on the Saturday and then saw Albion fulfil their obligations and notch their first 1-1 draw in a whole 5 days! 12 down and 6 to go as they march seemingly without hesitation towards a 38-game top flight record for draws in a single season.
Meantime Watford got buttered at home by revivalists Norwich, leading the owners to change their first team coach Claudio along with their own underwear. A new dawn, a new day, a new coach!
Also we talk FAB, season tix, substitutions and The Swedish Adam Virgo!
Stand or fall! UTA! If at first you don’t succeed, draw, draw again.

Non-League Special Part 4: Worthing Matchday!
24 JAN 2022 · Peter returned to the pod after a short break away to link up with Russ, travel down to Worthing for one or two beers *cough cough and to take in a game at Woodside Road, along with friends of the show Andy Bass and The Rebel Yell Live boys.
And guess what. They uncovered a new phenomenon - the 1-1 draw! ;)
Stand or fall! UTA! Up The Rebels!

“Pop It!” Chelsea Matchday Special
20 JAN 2022 · Russ is joined by John Orchard, Alison Nicolle, our talisman Ahmed and then in the stadium by John again and by Kevin Botting, to make their predictions, analyse the action as it’s unfolding, talk about gnomes & man bras and to summarise the match.
We also welcomed Steve the Chelsea fan onto the pod on the North Concourse post-match to provide the opposition view.
Stand or fall! UTA! Pop it!

“Late Goal Shock, Potterisms & Half-Nil to the Albion?” P*lace Review
17 JAN 2022 · A Matchday Special of sorts, with all the build up pre-match from the pub, the station, the train and the stadium approaching kick-off in Part One of the pod. (You may be astonished to discover that once again some naughty, naughty language has abounded on this segment! Also some suspicious slurring which led to a lack of in-match podcasting!)
In Part Two, Russ is joined by Andys Bass and Knott to analyse the game and reflect on the latest Potterisms and yet another late goal from The Good Guys.
In other matters Rafa The Spanish Waiter has been sacked from his job at Goodison’s, a restaurant of no current distinction. Graham Potter esquire has decided not to apply!
Stand or fall! UTA! Still bossing the rivalry on the head-to-head!

Palace Preview Special with Amy (from ‘the other side’!)
13 JAN 2022 · It’s Brighton / P*lace time! It’s not a derby, it’s a rivalry!!! Quit your branding efforts, Media!
In this precursive chat ahead of the big kick off, we invited the opposition on again to get a feel for the mood in the run up to Friday.
On this occasion Russ was delighted to welcome on Amy Latter, a life long P*lace fan (boo, hiss), former Selhurst Park cheerleader (hooray!) and now mother to a little lady who at 3.5 months old becomes our youngest ‘guest’, in her cameo role!!
Under discussion: life as a P*lace fan, the crunch games v Albion including ‘that’ game, the easy home wins for both sides, Russ’s mate missing all three goals in the St Patrick’s Day Massacre match, the pantomime villainy roll call starring Wilf Zaha, Neal Maupay, Lewis Dunk and soon likely to star Michael Olise.
We also whinge at the derby branding attempts by outsiders, give our score predictions and welcome Amy’s tiny tot Zara to the show! It got rowdy at the end!!! ;)
Let battle commence!
Stand or fall! UTA! And o remind us, why DID you let it bounce, P*lace?!

“A Vine Awayday, More Cupsets and Sitting On Goalies!” WBA Review
11 JAN 2022 · Russ is joined by Andy Bass, who went up to The Hawthorns for Albion’s ET victory in the Cup. Andy describes a grand day out and how the players’ quality and team’s strength in depth told in the end. We also hear from North West pod squadders Alastair and Nick with their match live musings from Saturday.
There’s also a look at the other highlights of 3rd Rd weekend as Despotivo Utd came a cropper in front of everyone, Kiddie caused a major cupset, Boreham Wood made the 4th Rd for the first time ever and Albion’s 4th Rd hosts-to-be went joint top of the all time Cup scoring chart.
Stand or fall! UTA! Stop sitting on that goalkeeper, Kidderminster!

We Are Brighton’s Scott McCarthy & FA Cup preview with Phil Annets
7 JAN 2022 · In this bumper episode, Russ and Pete welcomed yet another debutante to the pod in the shape of Scott McCarthy, lifelong Albion fan and writer on BHAFC matters for WeAreBrighton.com since 2009 and contributor to various national football media outlets including 90min.com
Scott gives us his Albion story, describes the genesis of WeAreBrighton and his other football writing developments, reveals his curious drink-based half-time matchday ritual and waxes lyrical about his new found ‘best friendship’ with Paul Barber ;)
Then, 1hr and 7 mins later, our new chum, FA Cup expert Phil Annets, joined us to look over this year’s competition so far and what he’s looking forward to from the famous 3rd Round of this year’s event.
Phil has this season published a book on the 150 year anniversary of the FA Cup which is available to buy from Amazon but also more preferably from his website directly, where there is currently an enticing postage free January sale offer. It’s an excellent read, packed with trivia and interesting stats. We urge you to try it as a new year treat!
https://facupfactfile.co.uk/shop
Follow Phil on Twitter for lots of great info and opinion @FACupFactfile
And check out plenty of funny, irreverent and pertinent Albion opinion by following Scott’s Albion scribbling at WeAreBrighton.com and on Twitter @wearebrighton
Stand or fall! UTA! May the best Albion (that’s BHAFC!) win!!!
