    Richard: My Dad took me to my first home game in April 1980 against Wolves. We won 3-0. A lifer ever since.

    My best photo and moment comes from away at Hereford in the last game of the season 1997 with Dick Knight. Dick still remembers my Portslade Union Jack flag wrapped around him.

    My funniest moment was running on the pitch for a pre-season friendly against Aldershot, I think in 1986. Eric Young signed my paper programme and let me take a shot at Perry Digweed. I sent it over the bar but I was the talk of all my mates for months after.

    We know the relationship between a football fan and their club is a special one so, as we gear up for the new season, we asked you to share why you fell in love with Brighton and some of your favourite moments supporting them.

    Alan: Started when I was seven at the old Goldstone Ground. My dad took me there. I remember players like Flash Gordon, Des Tennant, Glen Wilson, Jimmy Langley and Jimmy Leadbetter. I am now 86 and still support the club through thick and thin.

    Andy: It began when Kaoru Mitoma joined. My Japanese wife took an interest in BHA. I love football but had never followed a Premier League club. After our first visit to Amex Stadium (1-0 defeat by Fulham) my wife was hooked. Now she knows more about the team than me!

    The best game we've seen was last season's 3-2 win over West Ham. A goal down with a few seconds to play and the Seagulls turned it around with a stunning winner from Carlos Baleba. Graham Potter beaten in a game he surely thought he'd won and the home fans players going berserk!

    Brighton have secured the signing of teenage midfielder Kofi Shaw from Bristol Rovers.

    The 18-year-old, who started his career at West Bromwich Albion before joining Bristol Rovers in 2023, will move the Seagulls' under-21 side under Shannon Ruth.

    Ruth said: "We're really pleased Kofi is joining us. He's an exciting talent who already has good experience of men's football after breaking into the Bristol Rovers team in the second half of last season. He has lots of potential and we're looking forward to working with him and helping his development."

    During a loan spell with Yeovil last season, Shaw scored twice for the club and became the second youngest scorer in Yeovil's history.
