Albion Roar

Gnarly old campaigners Paul Samrah and John 'Attila The Stockbroker' Baine, so pivotal in both saving the Albion from its destructive board in the 1990s, and in gaining planning permission for the new stadium in the noughties, join Ady & Al for a look back on those days, a review of the Villa game – and Paul has a life-saving mission which needs your help...

As well as The Albion Roar, Al has a show on RadioReverb, playing an hour of soul, ska, mod and funk tunes. For the Reverbathon, Al closed the weekend with this hour of hot northern soul tunes, and a very distorted mic!

With thanks to our main sponsor, oldfootballshirts.com, alongside Reverbathon sponsors Ridgeview Wine Estate, Flowers Unlimited, and NSure, and guests Steve and John, we bring you our secion of Reverbathon 2024...

It was the best of own goals, it was the worst of own goals... Fellow podcaster Russell Guiver of Brighton Rock podcast joins us to talk about his favourite own goals, his own European adventure, and we pay tribute to Bushfire Erskine.

Mark and Roar debutant Claire join Ady & Al to discuss the state of women's football at Brighton, while Mark talks of how his acting workshop has clearly paid dividends to one Arsenal player...

The Albion has just posted some record-breaking, eye-watering profits, unprecedented for a club of our size. Kieran Maguire turns these profit and loss spreadsheet figures into plain English.

A truncated, podcast-only show this week while Albion fans indulge in some thumb-twiddling. This week's show features an 'Albion So Far This Season' Quiz between Vicki and Ady. How well will you get on? Shirt of the Week is absolutely Grötz.

With the Albion exiting the Europa League, Andy and Tom join Ady and Al in an eight-match review of a simply brilliant time had by (mostly) all. More, please. Oh, and Shirt of the Week was the first time every guests got it right immediately.

Jason joins Ady and Al to take a look back two contrasting performances and results for Brighton, against Roma and against Nottingham Forest.

The Albion's Head of Media and Communications, Paul Camillin - now in the 23rd year of his role - revisited Roar Towers to talk about all things Albion since his first days at the Goldstone, all the way through to a visit to Rome.

Italian football expert Nicky Bandini returns for the first time since RDZ's appointment to offer a progress report through the Italian media's eyes, plus a look forward to the matches against AS Roma. Meanwhile, the BBC's own 'European Tour Correspondent' Monica Fletcher offers her pearls of wisdom on the season so far, and gives a lowdown on her amazing professional career.

Nick joins Ady & Al once again to look at the 5-0 demolition of Sheffield United, who have now become the Premier League's pariah club. Plus we discuss Adingra's return, Sam Jewell's leap into the abyss and more besides. We couldn't have got Shirt of the Week more wrong if we tried.

Straight after Simon Adingra comes home from the AFCON with a winners' medal and Young Player of the Tournament award, Africa football expert Rahman Osman tells Ady & Al about the effect it is having on the Cote d'Ivoirians. And how Brighton may well benefit from a new audience fanbase.

Palace on the rocks. Much mirth. Everything else is a footnote.

From hat-trick Joao to being wowed by the Hatters. Ady, Al and Tom go over the FA Cup win over Sheffield United, and the brutal thumping handed out by Luton Town over an insipid Albion.

Ahead of the FA Cup tie against Sheffield United, former Albion assistant manager Bob Booker joins Ady & Al for a natter on all things Brighton. As did former Southern FM presenter Nicky Keig-Shevlin (not that Ady could pronounce her name - obvs). Plus some exemplary bon mots from Justin. Shirt of the Week was upside down.

With Reading fans invading the pitch, and generally cheesed off with their club's owner, we talk to Neill Rees of 'Sell Before We Dai' about the situation there. Plus, the effervescent Jo Hunter, founder of Piglet's Pantry reveals all about her quest for world domination.

A Bumper Review of 2023 - a year like no other for Brighton & Hove Albion.

The Guardian's (and Selhurst Park's) very own Ed Aarons joins Ady and Al to discuss the Albion's amazing achievement in Europe, while reflecting on the Arsenal game and looking ahead to the 'Because-Of-Five-Days-Before-Boxing-Day' match against Palace.

Ahead of the Marseille match, France football expert Jeremy Smith, returns to run the rule over Albion's first European adventure. Plus we look back at the Brentford and Burnley matches, and we pause to consider the narrative on criticising referees. Shirt of the week needs a little extra help...
