  21. 'It is never dull being an Albion supporter'

    It was not so long ago that the only reason for a Brighton fan to look forward to an away game at Manchester City was because it was one of the only away ground concourses in English football that sold a well-known dark fruit cider.

    This was both a blessing and a curse. Take the Albion's first visit to Etihad Stadium in May 2018.

    Many pints of said drink were sunk, both before the match and during half-time. The pain of a 3-1 defeat was lessened.

    On the flip side, it meant missing the booked public transport home and an unplanned night in Manchester until the first train back to London the following morning.

    And that 3-1 defeat was one of Brighton's better efforts. Largely because it involved an actual Albion goal.

    Before facing City on Saturday, Brighton's record at Etihad Stadium read: played seven, lost seven, scored three, conceded 18. Grim.

    To therefore be disappointed that Brighton were leaving the Etihad with a mere point from visit eight was quite an extraordinary feeling.

    Likewise, wondering just how costly Carlos Baleba blazing over the bar with 10 minutes remaining might be to the Albion's Champions League hopes.

    The current campaign, in many ways, reminds me of the 2022-23 season. Talk of the Europa League seemed fanciful going into the March international break. Little ol' Brighton finishing in the top six? Surely not.

    And yet, Roberto de Zerbi and his players went on to make history. Fast forward two years and Fabian Hurzeler and the current crop have every chance of doing the same.

    No matter what happens from this point onwards, the final two months of the season are going to be an absolute roller coaster.

    From losing 7-0 at Nottingham Forest to being seven unbeaten - including six wins and a draw against the four-in-a-row champions - it is never dull being an Albion supporter.
