My first time watching #bhafc at Wembley vs my most recent visit at the weekend. Different decades, same outcome 😢. You can read about my journey with the Albion in my debut book. It’s well good, I promise! Pre-order here or at any decent bookshop:

My husband @Bobbysix has WRITTEN A BLIMMIN’ BOOK! It’s about #BHAFC. But it’s more than that - and it’s not just for football fans.

I’m so proud and it is dead-set a brilliant read. It’s out this September, and available to pre-order NOW!

I have to say, @squires_david’s depiction of that injury-time horror show made me smile @guardian_sport #bhafc

[Robert Townsend @Bobbysix]

@DrRosena Congratulations 👏🏻 I’m delighted that you are my MP.

@bryanwade85 Thanks Bryan 👍🏻

@SpencerVignes @Brian__Owen @wearebrighton @albionroar As a ballboy at the Goldstone, I loved Sergei! I even was inspired to buy a USSR shirt. That goal he scored where he celebrated before putting the ball in the net was copied in the playground many times over the following weeks. Best wishes to our Russian international ❤️

It’s now TWO assists for Simon in the AFCON final and Ivory Coast lead! 🔥

It’s the best morning of the year! The #BigGardenBirdWatch is such a quiet joy. One hour of counting birds in the garden for @Natures_Voice.

There was a strong showing from the ring-necked parakeets in our little corner of SW London today!

[Robert Townsend @Bobbysix]

This is probably still my favourite ever #bhafc game. A great day out, a cracking atmosphere and a brilliant fightback against an incredible team.

#OTD in 1991 2nd Division Brighton travelled to Anfield in the FA Cup 4th Round

Liverpool raced into a 2 goal lead, but a Mike Small penalty & a flying header from @johnbyrne2 levelled the tie & set up a replay at the Goldstone Ground

I didn’t have Jermaine Jenas down as a Sleepy Jackson fan? #LukeSteele #bhafc

@glitchesnbugs True. Literally landed on my forehead.

In the faint hope they see this, eternal thanks to the strangers who helped when I tripped and smashed my face on the pavement while running on Armoury Way #Wandsworth. Was in no state to get their names but they were so kind & helpful ❤️🙏🏻 #London #SWLondon #Battersea #Clapham
