It is ten years today since Albion played their last game at Withdean - but do you remember the very final act?

Albion, already crowned as League One champions with four games to spare, entertained a Huddersfield side who were chasing promotion.

Visiting boss Lee Clark stood with his team for the pre-match handshakes so he could congratulate the Seagulls on their title.

Matt Sparrow scored Albion’s last goal at the stadium but Danny Ward’s late strike gave the Terriers a 3-2 success.

Then celebrations started as the trophy and medals were handed out to Gus Poyet and his squad.

But do you recall the very final moment of footballing action at Withdean?

For old times' sake it should have been an Elliott Bennett wondergoal.

Or a goal or a tackle by Gary Hart.

Or the referee getting some banter from fans down on the running track.

In the end it was none of those.

It was a sliding tackle near the halfway line by a big Slovak goalkeeper.

A good sliding tackle it was too as Peter Brezovan, having gone forward for a corner, rushed back and thwarted a Huddersfield counter attack.

He stretched out a long leg and, to cheers from the tiny, covered North Stand a few yards in front of him, prodded the ball out for a throw-in which was never taken.

The final final whistle at Withdean sounded with the ball bouncing towards an eight-lane running track.

It was a suitably bizarre way for life at a unique venue to end.

“It wasn’t my idea. I looked at the bench and they were telling me to get up there. On the way back I was just thinking ‘don’t get a red card’,” Brezovan said later.

What a finish that would have been!

Then the stage was literally set for the celebrations of both the title and the end of life at the temporary home.

A home from which they won three titles and a promotion via the play-offs.

Former Albion striker John Byrne saw the funny side of his final game at Withdean.

Back in the days before luxury media lounges or hospitality suites, reporters and commentators were provided with a box full of pies and pasties to share at half-time.

TOUGH RUN-IN HOLDS NO FEARS FOR GRAHAM POTTER

But the Huddersfield game was busy and John had to stay on air for a minute or two after the half-time whistle as part of his radio duties.

“I missed out on my last pie,” Byrne told listeners to BBC Radio Sussex after finding nothing but an empty box on arroval at the media portacabin.

“They were all gone when I got there. That’s the last time I’m coming here, I can tell you!”

And indeed it was.
