Its just goes to show how badly Archer and Bellotti underestimated the fans. They clearly thought Southern club, no fans no passion. How wrong they were.
Makes feel proud to follow my home town club.
When I look back at my time in the early to mid-nineties when it was all down the Zap on a Friday night to take many E's and Speed which would spill over into the whole weekend, it is generally with fondness.
That's not to say it didn't cause me problems and unhappiness at times, but in a funny...
Google SMART recovery. Its an online support group, started off in The States and beginning to be used over here now. All the big drug agencies such as Addaction are using it.
You may want to look at a short course of Anti-depressants, as your Dopamine levels will be low due to the Cocaine use...
Its hell. I get the bus from the Prison into Brighton. When things are normal I can leave just after 8, yesterday I left at 7.45 and still waited for almost 30 mins for a bus and was late for work making it a hatrick for the week.
Halifax! I am fairly sure the season we went up from league 2 under MA. The six of us travelled up in the morning, so a long drive. Landed in Halifax, which turns out to be a large village with limited number of pubs, full of gruff northern folk. Best northern accent chosen amongst us to get...
Well, If I am honest I don't go to Chelsea or premiership grounds at all. But my understanding is that they provide silly plastic flags for big euro nights in an attempt to create a kop type ( 70's and 80's kop of course) atmosphere. There is nothing inherently wrong in that of course but I...
I have never referred to myself as the voice of "true fans" and have never presumed to talk on behalf of anyone but myself.
I do believe terracing can work and does work, although again, I wasn't really focussing on that.
What I was trying to put across was that as fans we have a great...
I think your reading quite a lot into the previous post. Particulalrly around class struggle! I think the point he is trying to make is that fans have the right to be independent from the clubs corporate strategy and have their own individuality.
I quite agree football today should be classless...
Too bloody long, particularly when the seasons change and buses seem to run even later to and from lewes! Tonight I waited for about twenty minutes for a bus, only for 3 of the gits to turn up!
On the beach in Dieppe along with three others after spending the night in The Zap.
We marched off to Newhaven, passports in hand and got the early Ferry. Proceeded to drink the bar dry on the Ferry;Staggered around Dieppe for a bit, passed out on the beach, woke up to see the Ferry home sail...
An interesting read and made me think how important it is that we, the fans get the atmosphere right at Falmer. Having been to number of new grounds in the last ten years and a visit a few years ago to the Madjeski springs to mind, and seeing how poor the atmosphere can be at these grounds. The...
I went to that game, my god that was many moons ago. Surprisingly considering we were in the cup and playing a team we were meant to beat convincingly, we did! 5-0 I think.
My thoughts exactly. I have never felt so underwhelmed by our international team since I was old enough to care. Too many false dawns. Too much hype for far to little return. My feeling of ambivalence begun in 2002 and slowly increased until this summer's zenith of humiliation!
..............More updates, two of them have just fallen out quite badly. Initially they were discussing what place, if any, Eskimo's would have in their new world order. The argument became heated and returned to the unfortunate night in 2004 when one them became romantically involved with a...
Just heard three them coming over from Kent have just had their third McDonalds Breakfast of the day and now struggling to fit into the 1995 Fiat Panda they borrowed for the day. ETA put back a couple of hours.
I think we will win 2-1 with Barnes opening his account for the season. Walsall may get a goal towards the end, a la Rochdale but it will not effect the overall result!!!!
