Long-standing Albion fan Ian Hine has a new book out - the very weighty 'Brighton & Hove Albion - An Illustrated History of the Matchday Programme.' It's a whopper of a book, not just covering Albion matchday programmes (or 'Match Cards' as they were first called), but a fascinating document of the changing attitudes of the 20th Century.

A look back to the game at AFC Richmond's lesser-known occupants, signifying a point on the road, another clean sheet, and no chance of a double by or against Palace this season. Additionally, we examine potential law changes and whether Danny Malbec will qualify for the World Cup next summer.
Tickets? Any tickets? Buying or selling...
Brighton's Head of Ticketing and Supporter Services, Jenny Gower, joins Ady & Al to talk about using AI to clamp down on international touting, more bums on seats, half season tickets, safe-standing and more besides...
With the Albion facing Leeds United, former Albion, Leeds and Monaco winger Seb Carole joins Ady & Al for a bumper podcast talking over his career.
After another win over Newcastle, Nick joins Ady & Al to go over the game, plus thoughts behind Danny Malbec's record-equalling milestone, coming good like a fine wine.
Ex-Albion defender Guy, now an integral part of the Brighton & Hove Albion Foundation, joins Ady & Al to talk about the closing stages of his career, how he joined what was then Albion In The Community, and what his roles are now. Plus a few tales, anecdotes and silliness from inside the dressing room.
And, Northern Soul, of course.
In association with Flowers Unlimited.
France football correspondent - and Albion fan - Jeremy joins Ady & Al for a look back at the Wolves game, and a look across all of France to see how the Albion loanees are getting on.
We could have made the show all about Simon Hooper, but he did that for himself at Stamford Bridge. So we have a shakedown of the match instead, and how we won despite there being so many on the pitch playing for Chelsea.
In the wake of the Samaritans / Albion / Premier League's short film on suicide prevention, Dean from the Brighton, Hove & District Samaritans joins Ady & Al to discuss the project. Plus we are joined by Tom, fresh from his overseas adventures, to talk about the Spurs draw and the repeated half-dozen in the Carabao Cup in the Diego Gomez Show.

Another turnaround against Citeh, and a look at who went through the exit door on transfer deadline days, and more with Ady, Al and guest Nick.
The founder of The Treason Show returns to offer his thoughts on Everton's new ground, Everton's anti-football and being recognised outside the Cavern. Plus we zero in on Brighton's biggest-ever win in the League Cup.

Ady is joined by the Argus' Brian Owen, plus Jason Thackeray to look back on the Fulham game, look ahead to our visit to Everton's new ground and delight at the return of Lioness heroine Michelle Agyemang.
Now in our 19th different season, as is traditional for the season's curtain-raiser, Ady is joined by the Band, who offer their thoughts on the upcoming season, and their bizarre, cheese-dream predictions.
With almost 15 years on the clock since his previous visit to Roar Towers, writer, producer and director Warren Dudley joined Ady & Al for a natter on all things Albion, and his role in writing several films, including the much-lauded Bromley Boys.
With the season at an end, and the silly season (transfer rumours) in full swing, Al was joined by Steve and Matt, responsible for the highly revealing series of interviews - 'Heroes Have Heroes'.
Both reveal their Albion histories and how HHH came about.
Andy Bass, Marcus Hancocks and Phil Shelley joined Ady & Al for a bumper end-of-season review in what ended up being Brighton's second-highest finish ever.
El Presidente made a long-overdue welcome return to Reverb Towers. The recipient of a new Albion award, Dick shares his pride in the inauguration of the coveted prize.
Hot on the trail of another win at Wolves (just three defeats in 21 league matches up there), The Treason Show's Mark Brailsford joins Ady & Al to discuss the game, plus his latest shows as part of the Brighton Festival and into the summer.
After 25 years in the role of Sussex Police Liaison Officer (or Sussex Dedicated Football Officer these days), PC Darren Balkham is hanging up his truncheon (no tittering at the back) to be put to work by Mrs Balkham. Darren joined us with his replacement PC Gregg Marshall, to talk about his time with the club.
And the grief he gets every time we beat Manchester United. (Spoiler alert: we can do that still, but for Arsenal now).
