Albion Roar

Tom Hylands and Gordon Smith rejoin Ady & Al to mull over our first game in a month - Liverpool away, and Roberto De Zerbi's first game in charge. We also hear from Gordon with his take on VAR (which is something he first suggested), the Qatar World Cup (which he really didn't), the last hat-trick scorer for Brighton in the top division until Trossard's trio. And Gordon is still saying 'sorry'. Shirt of the week is from the Alps.

With the arrival of il Gaffer on a four-year contract, we talk to Nicky Bandini, Italian football correspondent about Roberto De Zerbi's potential impact, followed by Andy Bass joining in what he feels RBZ can bring to the club. Shirt of the Week is textbook Adidas

With nearly a week's reflection, Argus writer Brian Owen joined Ady & Al not just to discuss the ritual gutting of the Albion's coaching set-up, but also at the postponements following the passing of Queen Elizabeth II. Shirt of the Week is a suitably regal affair.

The nature and scale of Graham Potter's exit from Brighton have left a bitter taste in the mouth. Ady, Al and Nick Szczepanik attempt to get to grips with the whirlwind of change.

We talk about Albion's five-star performance against Leicester City. Plus we talk to the Brighton Women's Assistant Manager Amy Merrick about the upcoming WSL season. * Recorded ahead of the worries of Graham Potter being interviewed by Chelsea. A real day-slumper.

Andy and Riche join Ady & Al to discuss the Carabao Cup win over Forest Green Rovers, the Premier League win over Leeds, and the 'club-ending', 'team-destroying', 'embarrassing' etc etc defeat against Fulham. shirt of the Week is written on the back of my hand.

Ady & Al are joined by Brighton Rock podcast host Russ, and expat - now in LA(ish) - Ingram. The West Ham game, Graham Potter, watching from overseas, shirt of the week, and more.

Albion's long-serving Head of Communications, Paul Camillin, joined Ady & Al for a heads up on all things behind the scenes at the club, including the Women's Euros, Newcastle match, transfer rumour twaddle, Albion's Next Big Thing - and the world's most unsubtle hint at a new arrival. Shirt of the Week is an African affair.

The Athletic's Andy Naylor joined Ady & Al for a post-match smirk at the Albion beating Manchester United - again; crap refs at Old Trafford - again; a look back at the tedious Marc Cucurella saga, and outrage at the end of Sports Report. Shirt of the Week is from south Asia.

Andy Bass, Marcus Hancocks and show sponsor Phil Shelley join up once again for our 17th season to chew over the start of the new football season, look back at the end of the last one, marvel at the Lionesses, facepalm at the concept of transfer speculation, and offer up our 'Ludicrous Pre-Season Predictions'.

Marcus Hancocks and Andy Bass joined Ady & Al for an end of season review on what was ultimately Brighton's best-ever. Our Player of the Season, our Goal of the Season, plus a look at how our pre-season predictions panned out. Plus we have Phil Shelley's shirt of the season - an absolute beaut.

Ady & Al are joined by John Baine (aka Attila the Stockbroker) and Campaign Director of Football v Homophobia, Louise Englefield. Jake Daniels' groundbreaking public acknowledgement, the sad demise of AFC Southwick, and a little more gloating over the Man United game. Shirt of the week is from central France.

Albion fans Vicki and Louis joined Ady & Al for a smugathon after the Man U demolition. Plus we spoke to Nikki Giles of AITC about the ramping up of their events through the summer, and Louis - a noted film maker - tells us about his latest venture, a FIFA-sponsored film about the Croatia side reaching the World Cup semi-final in 1998 against a backdrop of political unrest. Shirt of the Week was, it seems, too easy...

Justin Brentnall and Roar newcomer Andy Message joined Ady & Al to mostly talk about the Albion demolition of Wolves, oblivious - of course - to what was going to happen a week later.

Ady & Al welcone back Matt and Ryan to chew over the Southampton draw, while also considering who they would like the club to retain, plus a 'I-wasn't-born-then' view of the Albion's War Years from 1995-97.

The Argus' Brian Owen joined Ady and Al for a look back at the victory over Spurs, the defeat by Man City, and a reprise of the performance against Arsenal. Shirt of the week is Jeans.

By request, the show from 2017 with this week's birthday boy, Plymouth Argyle fan Richard Vaughan is being re-posted. Richard famously posted the 'I see the scum FA...' post in December 1996, which ultimately led to Fans United. This was recorded the night before the home match with Burton Albion five years ago, where the club properly looked after him and his father Roger, nearing the end of our promotion season to the Premier League.

An implausibly optimistic, celebratory show after our excellent win against Arsenal. Plus we discuss Sean Dyche's sacking, and talk about what the Albion's 'War Years' meant to a then-outsider.

Albion hero of the 1996/97 season, Stuart Storer joined Al from his Bedworth United clubhouse to chat over some of the most worrying, outrageous times in the Albion's history - culminating in the club's exit from the Goldstone Ground, 25 years ago this month. 

Journalist, musician, and all-round good egg Nick Szczepanik joins Ady & Al to discuss the so-called malaise at Brighton, the World Cup draw, the farce of the World Cup being Qatar, and the 25th anniversary of Brighton's last game under the floodlights at the Goldstone - and much more. Shirt of the Week is where there be Dragons.
