The Albion Roar - 16th April 2025 with guest David Atherall

With more points being left out on the pitch, and another Desmond shared with Leicester, Ady and Al, fresh from the Reverbathon, invited author David Atherall, author of a 1996/97 memoir, 'Embers' in to talk about the book. And we have a copy to give away!

Yeah, it really is him. Norman came by the studio in Brighton's Open Market for an hour's natter as part of RadioReverb 97.2FM's Reverbathon.

Two games, no goals, an FA Cup exit and a worse-score-than-performance defeat at home. Still, the fans have a shiny, loud new bar at the Amex. Oh, and guess who came of age this week?

The moonwalking dude that is Bas Savage joins Ady & Al to talk about his start in the game, his time at the Albion, his work with the PFA - and the fun he had at the recent charity match in Worthing. Plus we hear from several people involved in the Rockinghorse match, including Warren Aspinall, Jeff Stelling and Donna Holland, CEO of Rockinghorse Children's Charity, and Brett himself, of course.

Jason and Brett join Ady & Al to discuss a first point at the Etihad, our Mothering Sunday competition winners announced, and a charity football match to promote. All this and more on this week's Roar...

Tom & Vicki join Ady & Al for a look back at the Albion's sixth win in a row, PLUS we have another competition, courtesy of Flowers Unlimited.

As Brighton march on with gay abandon into the quarter-finals of the FA Cup, spreadsheet super-boffin, Kieran Maguire offers his words of wisdom about the Albion's bounceback and runs the rule over the club's latest set of figures, which came out last week.

Kings of the South Coast! What a spurious boast. Andy Bass joins Ady & Al to marvel at two very different victories.

Jason floated onto the show on the back of the wins against Chelsea, to talk about Mitoma's worldie. Meanwhile, former Albion player Hans Kraay was in town, so Ady & Al caught up with him. In the pub.

 Andy Bass and Justin Brentnall join Ady & Al to discuss the Cup win over Chelsea, and 'the season of transition'. And the ongoing disturbingly dark case of Joel Veltman. In association with Flowers Unlimited
