We are UP FOR THE CUP! And we really were on Saturday, riding an early threat from Norwich to eventually romp home 0-4. A great day out, a great performance and some fantastic positives to be taken from the game, including a welcome return for Danny Welbeck, a welcome and sensational appearance from the bench for Solly March, some really good goals including an overdue strike for Julio Enciso and last but by absolutely no means least, a first team debut for young Albion centre back Ruairi McConville, who came on and acquitted himself really well. Russ spoke to his dad and younger brother in the away end at the end of the match and found both family members to be delighted and extremely proud of Ruairi’s debut. Also on the pod we heard from two Davids, Chris, Sam, Molly, Caroline, Will and Clive. So next up, an immediate return to East Anglia with a visit to Portman Road in the Prem. Stand or fall!   UTA!  Welcome to the first team, Ruairi!!! @BrightonRockPod on BlueSky (and Twatter) brightonrockpodcast@gmail.com Part of the Sport Social Podcast Network that can be found in all their glory at this rather suitable address: www.sport-social.co.uk  Please follow us for automatic downloads of new episodes and if you want to make us really happy please rate us five stars on Apple and any other platforms that provide the opportunity to do so!

Russ further mused on the draw with Arsenal before welcoming back FA Cup facts and stats guru Phil Annets to talk us through the eye-catchers of this 3rd Round weekend, to pop in some interesting facts and to proffer both the head-to-head stats for The Canaries vs Albion AND some quirky trivia on the same subject. There’s also Russ’s thoughts on the possible team for the weekend…shame he couldn’t remember Ruairi McConville’s name at the time!!! Stand or fall!   UTA!  Balls to Arteta! @BrightonRockPod on BlueSky (and Twatter) brightonrockpodcast@gmail.com Part of the Sport Social Podcast Network that can be found in all their glory at this rather suitable address: www.sport-social.co.uk  Please follow us for automatic downloads of new episodes and if you want to make us really happy please rate us five stars on Apple and any other platforms that provide the opportunity to do so!

Well, well, well! Who’d a thunk it?! 5 years on, 400 episodes in and still waffling for England! But that’s enough about Peter… it was a match day of magnitude as Albion went head-to-head against title pretenders Arsenal. And then there’s all the chat from the Villa game before that, courtesy of our northern correspondents and the aforementioned waffler Pete. A bumper episode for the ages! Stand or fall!   UTA!  Here’s to the next 5 years! @BrightonRockPod on BlueSky (and Twatter) brightonrockpodcast@gmail.com Part of the Sport Social Podcast Network that can be found in all their glory at this rather suitable address: www.sport-social.co.uk  Please follow us for automatic downloads of new episodes and if you want to make us really happy please rate us five stars on Apple and any other platforms that provide the opportunity to do so!

Well here we went again. Another day, another underwhelming result. We spoke to Billy ‘The Bee’ Grant ahead of the game to get the opposition view (just before Christmas) and then Russ, Alan, Duncan and Alex Lees, Chris, Kevin, Wilts, Dan and Fin’ all gave their thoughts as the action eventually unfolded on 27th. Then in the final part of the episode The Brighton Rock Podcast paid tribute to Bill Nicolle who sadly passed away a few weeks ago. Bill was a long term supporter and a regular in the West Stand Upper, father to three Seagulls supporting children, friends of the show Alison, Richard and Phil and an all round good guy who will be sadly missed by all who knew and loved him. Stand or fall!   UTA!  RIP Bill @BrightonRockPod on BlueSky (and Twatter) brightonrockpodcast@gmail.com Part of the Sport Social Podcast Network that can be found in all their glory at this rather suitable address: www.sport-social.co.uk  Please follow us for automatic downloads of new episodes and if you want to make us really happy please rate us five stars on Apple and any other platforms that provide the opportunity to do so!
