After everything the Brighton fans are doing for us it got me thinking about past games against them that I can remember.
The one that instantly springs to mind is the 3-3 draw at home, towards the start of our divison 2 winning season. A young Paul Connolly scored a pearler of an own goal from forty yards out right in front of the Devonport. He lobbed Romain perferctly. Coughlan scored but Brighton went 3-1 up. A brilliant finish to the game saw a spirited Argyle score two goals, through Friio and Stoney to draw level. There was still enough time at the death for Lee Hodges (the best one) to run a full 80 yards and smack a left footed effort off the base of the left upright.
A fantastic game which summed up the spirit and never say die attitude of the squad at that time.
Who got Brighton's goals? Leon Knight maybe? Or was this before his spell with you? (Brighton fans)
The second game was a televised away game during Bobby Williamson's tenure. I don't remember this as clearly, I think many pre-match drinks were consumed. I think we lost 2-0? Wasn't it the last game for Bobby? Or at least one of them.
Anyone have any other fond or not so fond memories of meeting between the two sides?
