Albion Roar

Marcus 'Sir Rantsalot' Hancocks joined Ady & Al in the Coastway studio in Kemp Town for a 'Season So Far' debate. Naturally, the conversation turned to the Stoke City game (aka 'The Lee Mason Show'), THAT non-penalty, and the thickness and intensity of Glenn Murray's red mist. Also on the agenda was a look ahead to Manchester United and Crystal Palace, including a quick natter with Paul Reid, and we're asking you which is your favourite Albion-related commentary... Plus, of course, Hopalong Shelley's 'Shirt of the Week'.

Richie and Steve get together once again to discuss all things Albion from an antipodean exile perspective. Paul Reid shares his memories of Albion beating Palace at Selhurst in 2005, while the main guest is Brighton-born ex-Millwall and Palace winger Paul Ifill, now plying his trade for Tasman United in the New Zealand Football Championship. At the age of 38.

Bob Booker and Mark McGhee return for part two of their evening at Komedia we recorded back in September. Listen to Bob's time as a trainee upholsterer, and Mark's apprenticeship in an architect's office. There's more outrageous stories from the puerile (Bob's fart machine) to hero-worship (their collective love of The Who) through to the friendship between Booker and Joe Elliott of Def Leppard. Listen to how Peter Taylor's first training session with the Albion went, and Mark's attitudes to modern day agents, wages and professionalism. And their ongoing appreciation of Adam Virgo. Plus there's Freddie. You may need to wait for the TV show for fully appreciate it though...

How does the club unearth the next Lewis Dunk or the next Solly March? What is involved in getting kids to a level where they can make it as a professional? Listen to John Morling talking about the set-up at Lancing and across Sussex and Surrey, and how it interacts with the professional, senior side of the club. We also touch on the Swansea game, plus there's Uncle Phil's Shirt of the Week Down Under.

Former Albion manager Mark McGhee and assistant manager Bob Booker entertained an audience at Brighton's Komedia in early September regaling tales from Portakabin Central. Spend an hour re-living these tales from the 2003/04 promotion season - including Dick Knight's smoking habit, the coach roof, 'ice' in the beer - and Bob's 'favourite' restaurant.

Richard in New Zealand and Steve in Australia return for the second Albion Roar Down Under podcast. In this episode, Steve talks about the REMF match in Sydney between Brighton & Crystal Palace which took place recently. Former Albion player and REMF stalwart Paul Reid gives his impressions of the charity and the match. Plus we have John Moriarty, the first indigenous Australian to play football for his country. He talks about the 'John Moriarty Football', encouraging aboriginal players into the sport at junior and grass roots level. Richard Bayliss, executive producer and presenter at Optus Sports is the special guest. Richard talks about Optus' presentation of the Premier League in Australia, and his take on Albion's start to the season.

With 386 matches between the sticks from 1962 to 1974, Seaford-born and bred Brian Powney is the most prolific goalkeeper in the history of Brighton & Hove Albion. He has a wealth of experience, knowledge and stories from his time at the club. Which skipper would bawl him out? Who was the defender who helped Brian in the early days? Who was the best player he played alongside on all those years in Hove. Find out what he thought of the various managers and, most importantly of all - who was Brian Powney's favourite goalkeeper from the Goldstone days? A fabulous trip down Memory (Goldstone) Lane.

Ady, Al and Andy give their views on the Everton and West Ham matches, Michael Oliver, Bruno, and a gushing appraisal of the enormous Gestalt entity known as 'Duncan Duffy'. Plus we talk about the best away days in London, and Phil Shelley of OldFootballShirts.com has given us an on-topic Shirt of the Week.

Martin Perry swung by the studio to give the latest on the Monk's Farm development at Lancing, which includes around 600 new houses, a primary school and an IKEA store. Plus he pays tribute to the individuals on the Falmer For All team, as well as all other fans for their hard work in all aspects of Brighton's campaign and journey, plus some of his own recollections of his time as a director over the past 20 years. And the home game against Everton is an AITC takeover day. So please bring a pound. And Phil gave Ady another impossible tongue-twister for Shirt of the Week.

The pilot episode of The Albion Roar Down Under by and for Brighton fans living in Australia and New Zealand. Original Roar presenter Richard Parker talks to Seagulls Down Under (SDU) founder Steve Longly about the season so far, the membership of SDU, what it's like following the Albion from the other side of the planet, and a reminder of the REMF Down Under charity match coming up soon in Sydney. Plus, Richard talks to Kevin Waterman, an Everton fan in New Zealand about the upcoming match. To get in touch, email roardownunder@gmail.com

Albion fan Piers Benjamin and former Sussex seamer (and Albion fan, of course) Lewis Hatchett join Ady & Al for an extended podcast. Up for discussion are the Arsenal away match, including talking about Matt Ryan and Lewis Dunk; equality and homophobia issues across football and cricket; respect for officials and rules; and Lewis is open about Poland Syndrome, which affected the development of his upper body, and ultimately accounted for his early exit from first class cricket - and his plans for Tokyo 2020. Plus we have Shirt of the Week - a minger.

Ady, Al and Jason Thackeray discuss the Newcastle United match, and discuss whether sports and politics should be allowed to mix. Don't forget to check out Jason's excellent blog - 'Brighton But Only At Home'.

Paul Barber recorded this episode of the Albion Roar over the phone - hence the crackly quality - to talk about various things currently on Brighton fans' minds including... • Harvesting of loyalty points • The transfer window • Moody merchandise • Second hand tickets • Women's football • Mustard jumpers ... and more besides.

Brighton's first win in the top division since 1983, courtesy of beating West Bromwich Albion, and an avoidable defeat at Bournemouth are up for discussion. Plus, growing up in the 1970s and Phil Shelley's Shirt of the Week.

Brighton & Hove Albion Women's assistant manager Amy Merricks and captain Sophie Perry tell Ady and Al about the set up at Lancing for the team.
