Description

The Brighton Base is a weekly podcast from "The Brighton Base" (https://thebrightonbase.com/), bringing you closer to Brighton & Hove Albion with the stories, insight and analysis behind the headlines. Each week, we go beyond the match result to explore what is really happening across the club. Expect informed discussion with football journalists, former professional footballers as well as occasional well-known celebrity Brighton fans and guests. We cover everything Brighton & Hove Albion, including the Premier League, UEFA Conference League, Women's Super League (WSL), FA Cup and Carabao Cup, with coverage of both BHAFC Men’s, BHAFC Women’s teams, the Academy, loan players and the wider development of the club. From match analysis and football tactics to transfers, player development, recruitment, club strategy and football finance, The Brighton Base Podcast looks at the stories and narratives that sit beneath the surface of the headlines.
