1. The whole pre match thing, meeting with mates in Brighton, the drinks, the banter, the piss taking, everything!
2. The Stadium, i am officially in love with a building!
3. Everyone on the same side, talking to strangers as if you have known them years!
4. The Pies!
5. Exclamation marks!
Dislikes
1. The queues for food and drink in the north stand at half time and after the match
2. The queues for the toilets in the north stand at all times
3. The fact I spent 30 quid on travel vouchers and not ONE person has asked to see one
4. Last minute opposition goals which deprive us of points
5. Going home

At least you're honest I suppose.
Dislike: Reading this 50 times when we lose.

Love:
1) The stadium
2) Gus
3) CMS
4) When we score
5) The view
Hate:
1) When people don't celebrate when we score.
2) Not being able to afford to go to ANY away games, (nothing better than an away game)!
3) The fact that I only bought my son a season ticket and not my daughter! Could have kept them both happy for an extra £8.91 per month! What a dick I am!
4) Missing Soccer Saturday, the best programme on TV. (Although shouldn't be a problem for the next few months).

Running onto the pitch to celebrate a goal

People who have to turn a football match into some sort of red nose day cryathon
JCL's
Queuing for a beer

That is so true. Watching the Albion is sometimes a great escape.
LIKE (LOVE)
1. The Albion and everything the club and its history mean to me.
2. Gustavo Poyet
3. Sharing quality time / a common interest with my sons
4. The explosive release of sheer unadulterated happiness, that an important goal brings.
5. The "We're f***ing brilliant" chant, when used in the RIGHT circumstances (3-0 up away).
HATE
1. The "We're f***ing brilliant" chant at the WRONG time...
2. The two hour drive, to and from Brighton, for each game.
3. Moronic wannabe hoolies.
4. Moronic ex-hoolies.
5. Walking past the smug opposition fans after the game, if you've lost.

Love...The atmosphere.
The adrenalin
Meeting people...old and new
Seeing the stadium erupt when we score
Our brilliant manager,our football,our stadium.
Dislikes...People who have to swear every other word...so grown up!
Fans who insist on standing up in front of people who can't stand up....selfish.
Those that come back 10 minutes after the half has started....move because I want to get to my seat.
Moronic little tough nuts out to damage and cause disruption.
NO GUINNESS in the stadium!!!

Atmosphere, home or away. Love the tribalism of it.
The tension of hanging on to a victory when you're under pressure late in the game.
Seeing the stadium as you get near it and realising it's ours, it's a home game.
The feeling you get after a victory, especially a big one, which you take away with you and sustains you for days afterwards. Puts a smile on your face even if you're bored or unhappy with other stuff.
The spectacle. The contrast of the pitch with the blue and white in the crowds. The mass of people, the movement of the game, the whole damn thing. There's nothing better - even when it's shit it's still a million times better than work/theatre/cinema/TV/pretty much anything else you do with your time.
Dislikes:
Sitting down, so you can't move away if you end up next to some total cock. And however good the atmosphere is, it's not as good as it would have been if we could stand up.
Games being decided (very, very rarely) by incompetent officials with no chance of them having to explain themselves or answer to us for their cock-up.
People bitching about insignificant stuff like pies and queueing, when it's as good as it's ever been to be a Brighton fan.
The horrible, hollow feeling you take away with you when you lose a game, especially a big one. Makes you feel like shit for days. Weeks if it's Palace.
Diving, cheating, arrogant, overpaid players who have absolutely no f***ing idea how fortunate they are to be doing what they're doing. Fortunately we don't have to cope with too many of those coming here. Yet.

Like.
1). 90 mins of forgetting about everything and getting lost in a game of football.
2). Catching up with similar minded people and just talking football / sport.
3). Beer (sadly never enough).
4). Banter between home / aways fans.
5). Having a laugh, we don't do enough of it.
Hate.
1). Having to be organised and buying tickets in advance.
2). All seater stadiums.
3). Queing and when you get to the front "Sorry sold out".
4). Love Banter but a fine line between that and insults.
5). The final whistle, 90 minutes is never enough.

Like-
Our beautiful stadium
Having a chat with random fans whilst waiting for a pint
The way we play
Getting abused by home fans at away games before scoring a winner in the 90th
MAN TIME
Dislike-
Sitting next to boring twats that just sit there repeatedly eating, whilst looking at you as if you're the one being a cock for singing and getting involved
Massive costs
Travelling for hours
Being sat behind the goal when we're shooting the other way in the second half
Losing
