It's awards time again. Leading up to a Euro 2012-induced hiatus for The Two Unfortunates, we'll be
proclaiming our gongs for 2011-12 based on the opinions of our writers; watchers of football in all
three divisions of the Football League. It's fitting to note then, that our Best Manager of a year
ago was Paul Lambert, now poised to take the next possibly upward step in his coaching career,
while Brighton and Hove Albion nabbed our Best Team award and Adel Taarabt won the Best Player
Accolade.
Scotland head coach Craig Levein has named his 22-player roster for the team's international
friendly against the U.S. Men's National Team at 8 p.m. ET Saturday, May 26, at EverBank Field in
Jacksonville, Fla.
Forward Kenny Miller is the most experienced player within Scotland's roster.
At the beginning of last season, it was suggested that Spurs had declared an interest in
Brighton and Hove Albion defender Lewis Dunk. The stories emerged after Tottenham had played at The
Amex and reports claimed that they weren't the only Premiership club taking a look at the 20 year
old.
Our latest entry in the Hopeless Teams series comes from Stefan Swift, co-editor of that hip
Brighton fanzine The Seagull Love Review. Following his sidekick Sam Swaffield's excellent
assessment of Brighton's current season over on the 72, Stef considers an unhappier time for Albion
supporters when, less than four years ago, a club legend well and truly blotted his Seagulls
copybook.
Gerrard never gives up...Liverpool secured their place in the
quarter finals of the FA Cup on Sunday after beating Brighton 6-1 at Anfield. Stoke were drawn out
of the hat for Liverpool and the Reds will once again be at home as they look to close down on
Wembley for a second time this season.
Liverpool routed Championship club Brighton & Hove Albion by a score of 6-1 to advance to the
quarter-finals of the English FA Cup. Manager Kenny Dalglish's side will meet fellow...
Pleeeeeeeease let us win?...Liverpool welcome Gus Poyet's
Brighton & Hove Albion to Anfield on Sunday for the 5th round of the FA Cup. The two sides have
already met this season when the Reds got the better of Brighton on their home turf in the League
Cup.
Brighton don't have any major injury worries and their two on loan players from Manchester City are
expected to make their debuts; Abdul Razak & Gai Assulin.

last Saturday's handshake controversy again.

Gareth Bale, sorry, Will Buckley hares down the left showing gut busting pace and plenty of
footy skills to elude Danny Simpson and Yoann Cabaye. He then unleashes a left footed shot which
deflects of Mark Williamson and past Tim Krul for a famous Brighton and Hove Albion victory.
Alan Pardew has stated that Newcastle captain Fabricio Coloccini would play through the pain
barrier at Brighton and Hove Albion tonight, but that doesn't sound good to us. Fabricio Coloccini
don't play him if he's not 100% fit It's true that Coloccini played with back pain at Bolton
Wanderers in Newcastle's 2-0 win and [.
If one remembers the instant relegation Brighton and Hove Albion suffered on the last occasion they
ascended to English football's second level, it's been a heartening first half of the season for
the Seagulls. Many expected them to do well given the verve they showed in cantering to the League
1 title in May and a position just four points off the play off zone constitutes real progress.

Brighton and Hove Albion 1 Nottingham Forest 0 Gutted isn't the word Forest rose to the challenge
from Tuesday night's fiasco with a spirited and dominating performance over a very good Brighton
side. Only to find themselves being hit by a sucker-punch at the death. Don't think that the

Robbie Findley looks to feature in Nottingham Forest's league game against Leeds United, while
Conor Doyle hopes for playing time as Derby County takes on Brighton and Hove Albion.
Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglish says the club is delighted with the recovery of captain Steven
Gerrard, but are refusing to put a date on his return.
The 31-year-old has been ruled out of the weekend's visit of Manchester City after being blighted
by injury problems this season, having made just five appearances for the Reds.
Vicente: From the Mestalla to FalmerThe year is 1997 and on England's South Coast, things are far from sunny, writes David
Hartrick.
Brighton and Hove Albion are facing an uncertain future as the Goldstone Ground has been sold as a
result of an asset strip from a board led by a man with little to no regard for the club.

Brighton and Hove Albion are facing an uncertain future as the Goldstone Ground has been sold as a
result of an asset strip from a board led by a man with little to no regard for the club.
Liverpool has always been concerned with tradition, and they have good reason.
The history behind their multiple European Cup wins and the tragedy of Hillsborough among other
notable events means the club will always be highly thought of.
The club's relationship with the League Cup, not always a competition held in the highest regard,
has led to Kenny Dalglish fielding his strongest team this term, despite the inferior opposition.
In the last week, both Steve Harper and Peter Lovenkrands have made very strong suggestions that
their days at Newcastle United are numbered. Firstly, speaking in an interview with Brighton and
Hove Albion's website, and also in the club's match programme, currently on loan goalkeeper, Steve
Harper, has once again become weary of his peripheral [.
Former Manchester United and Leeds defender Gordon McQueen (59) has been
diagnosed with Cancer of the Larynx and will have treatment at the James Cook University Hospital
in Middlesborough.
McQueen capped 30 times for Scotland was an inaugural part of the great Leeds
side who won the 1973/74 League title going 29 games unbeaten in the process.

Bellamy scores his first goal back in a Liverpool shirt... It was end to end stuff last night in
Brighton as Gus Poyet's boys looked to cause an upset for Liverpool. An inspired performance from
Brighton was threatening to take the game from the Reds on several occasions but in the end the
home side had to settle for a consolation goal from the penalty spot.
Liverpool 2 Craig Bellamy 7′, Dirk Kuyt 81′Brighton 1 Ashley Barnes (pen) 90′
Liverpool came out firing, looking to put doubts to rest in the wake of Sunday's shambolic visit
to White Hart Lane—or, for the players who had been left out against Tottenham, perhaps
attempting to show the manager that they were more deserving of starting roles.
All is not lost as Brighton find a way forward under Poyet
Ultimately they lost, but it can no longer be said of Brighton and Hove Albion that they are
lost. Two years ago this week the Seagulls were 19th in League One.

League Cup: Brighton v Liverpool
Kenny Dalglish said he was going to field a strong side for tonight's match against Brighton and
Hove Albion and he's certainly not picked a weak one. Injuries and suspensions meant he would have
to make at least three changes – Daniel Agger is injured with Martin Skrtel and Charlie Adam
suspended – but he's also made a couple of further changes.
Brighton's new Falmer Stadium... Liverpool travel to the home of the seagulls tomorrow for their
league cup fixture against Brighton & Hove Albion. Promoted from league one last season, the
seaside club are finding themselves in a bit of good form. The Reds on the other hand will be
looking to quickly forget about their embarrassing defeat at the hands of Tottenham Hotspur on the
weekend and
All of a sudden, the Carling Cup trip to Brighton and Hove Albion looks a great deal more important
than it once did.
Liverpool will of course be desperate to stay in the hunt for silverware this season, especially
with no European football on offer.
But equally importantly, it is a chance to produce an immediate reaction to two disappointing
league results.
Things went horribly, horribly wrong on Sunday, but we've already covered that. Perhaps it
doesn't come as a huge surprise, though, that a lot of the places that talk Liverpool have gone a
touch quiet following their obligatory (and rather depressed) match reviews in the wake of Sunday's
sad showing at Spurs.

Regular readers of this site will be all too aware of the recent problems that have beset
Plymouth Argyle Football Club. Plymouth's supporters, in conjunction with whose of Brighton & Hove
Albion, are now planning a protest on the twenty-fourth of September to which supporters of all
clubs will be welcome.
A Swash Buckley Homecoming Brighton & Hove Albion 2-1 Doncaster Rovers (06:08:11) 14 years ago
Brighton & Hove Albion played Doncaster Rovers in the last ever game at the Goldstone Ground. Fast
forward to the present day, and they were at it again - for the first ever league game at The
American Express Community Stadium.
American Beauty Brighton & Hove Albion 2-3 Tottenham Hotspur (30-07-11) Brighton's new stadium is
landmark architecture, designed to inspire. Premier League calibre. Beautiful inside. A mansion for
the homeless. Paul Hayward I didn't actually want to attend this match. I'd waited so long - 14
years to be precise - to see Brighton play in a "proper" home stadium again that I promised myself

The cheeky rascal builders working on Brighton and Hove Albion's new, 22,300-seater Falmer
Stadium pulled a fast one when installing the seating, modifying the club's seagull logo with a few
carefully placed white seats...
Sadly, the guano-based prank didn't last long, with a Brighton spokesman confirming that ‘a
clean-up operation has taken place and the seats have been re-arranged to show the seagull in
flight'.
It'll be all-white on the night With Brighton's stadium due to be completed for the start of the
new season, you might have thought that the builders would be working flat out to get things
finished. Not a bit of it. Instead, workmen added a few white seats below the club's logo so that

Spanning our coverage to three divisions would always present problems when deciding upon this
season's best team. Just as the WBA, IBF and WBC versions of international boxing competed for
eminence in the 1980s, Queen's Park Rangers, Chesterfield and Brighton and Hove Albion possess
equal claims to be the top canines thirty or so years on.
