Alright folks, been digging into this Brighton Palace timeline project all week, gotta share how it actually went down. Wanted those top 10 classic moments, proper match history vibe, you know?
The Initial Idea
So Tuesday morning, after my third coffee, I thought “Right, Brighton vs Palace timeline, Top 10 moments. Sounds straightforward, right?” Man, was I naive. Grabbed my laptop, fired up the browser, and dove headfirst into old match reports and fan forums. Dusty stuff.
Digging Into The Mess
Started searching everywhere:
- Went through official club archives – like reading ancient scrolls.
- Scrolled fan sites till my eyes felt square.
- Tried finding video clips that weren’t total potato quality.
- Checked stats websites, numbers swimming in my head.
- Kept comparing notes from different places, half didn’t match!
Honestly, ended up with like 20 possible moments piled on my desk – papers everywhere, tabs upon tabs. Pure chaos.
The Sorting Nightmare
Thursday afternoon hit me hard. Sat down staring at this mess thinking “How the heck do I pick just ten?” Made piles on the floor:
- Biggest goal pile?
- Wildest tackle pile?
- Funniest blunder pile?
Arguments with myself like:
- “That free kick HAS to be in!”
- “But that comeback was epic…”
- “Ugh, that last-minute own goal though, classic!”
Was scribbling timelines on my whiteboard, erasing constantly. Felt like detective work mixed with wrestling a bear.
Putting It Together
Finally forced myself to choose yesterday. Sat tight, ignored the phone buzzing, and just typed it out rough. Didn’t even worry about fancy words. Got that raw feel onto the page.
Key things I learned by doing:
- Everyone remembers moments differently. No single “truth”.
- Finding clear video proof for old matches is HARD.
- Making a list means cutting stuff you love. Hurts.
Proofread it twice while eating takeaway, then hit publish before I could overthink it. Still not sure about leaving out that 1982 dust-up… but hey, ten is ten.
Anyway, it’s live now. Probably missed some gems – these rivalries run deep. Let me know what you’d have included! Brain still feels full of seagulls and eagles clashing.
