About this book

WHISTLES ring out across the Amex Stadium. 3 minutes of added time separate Brighton and Hove Albion from history. Fans wait anxiously, then — the final whistle blows! Fists punch the air as supporters stream onto the pitch, arms outstretched, mobbing players. Chris Hughton shakes hands and hugs the coaching staff, while fans leap, scarves swing, and chants rise: ‘We're on the way to the Premier League!’.

Follow the story of Brighton & Hove Albion through a book of authentic newspaper articles, curated from original reports dating back to 1908. This special edition charts the Seagulls’ history — exactly as it was reported at the time.

Featuring:

– The memorable FA Cup run to the 1983 Final
– Promotion to the Premier League in 2017
– The historic victory over Ajax in the 2023 UEFA Europa League
– Iconic moments and players from every era
– Highlights from the latest seasons
