We Are Brighton
'83: Brighton 2-2 Man Utd
First half A great opening 45 minutes in the most famous day in the history of Brighton & Hove Albion. And Smith does score!
Second half After Manchester United's comeback, Gary Stevens crowns his man of the match performance with a last-gasp equaliser to take the match into extra-time.
Extra-time Players from both sides start to get tired. However, Michael Robinson sets up Gordon Smith, who has a great chance to win the FA Cup for Brighton. Sadly, it doesn't happen!

'82: Brighton 1-0 West Ham
A tale of two offside decisions. The Seagulls build many slick passing moves, all the more impressive considering the appalling playing surface. In the second half, West Ham debut Belgian superstar Francois van der Elst.

Brighton are promoted to the top flight for the first time in their history.
