The Albion Roar - 21st August 2024 with guest Brian Owen

Albion CEO and Deputy Chairman Paul Barber joins Ady and Al for the club's perspective on the upcoming Football Governance Bill, plus news of the building work and renovations taking place at the stadium, and an update on the new women's stadium.

A look back on 2024, a look ahead to 2025, the story of how 'a bunch of Brighton punks and skinheads' nearly got to go on Top of the Pops in 2005. And we pay tribute to Brighton's own 'Boring' Bob Grover.

There are certain times when you stop and ask, "Blimey, is it really him?" Yeah, it's him.

While we never win at Fulham, we have now mastered the concept of squandering comfortable leads. Matt and Tom join Ady and Al for a therapy session.

Actor and writer Steve, and Dutch Seagulls Werner join Ady & Al for a natter on supporting the Albion from afar, writing two essential Albion books, and the bizarre notion of being disappointed in an Albion performance that elevated us to second place in the Premier League. Plus... we have the result of last week's competition, and we have a new competition. Aren't we lovely?

Vicki Rees, long-standing Albion fan, and the person who came up with the idea of 'flowers for Prescott 20 years ago, joins Ady and Al for a look back at the Bournemouth game, our tribute to John Prescott, and a Christmas Competition!

Clive Steed is Chair of the Brighton Fan Advisory Board – he tells Ady & Al all about it, and what its aims, campaigns and functions are. Meanwhile, Paul Camillin talks about ticket terms and conditions, and what's happening to the 'Stand or Fall' film next.

Basically, a Manchester City gloat-in.

Dan has a new book out, Kieran has a show in Brighton to promote, while Dean, who volunteers for the Samaritans and is the beneficiary of the Price of Football in Brighton, tells us about his work. And we talk about some football.
