On the 'ead son!
So, I've just arrived in Koh Samui for a holiday, and on the way to the hotel, the driver asks where are we from?
Brighton, I said.
He said, Brighton are the Champions. They play very good football. Next year they're in the premier league!
Turns out, he knew everything about us. Our logo, where we play. How many years outside the top flight. Who our manager is. Who Anthony Knockaert is. Pretty much loves us.
We now have fans much much further afield. Also turns out we were a stable bet for those that like to gamble out here in Asia. Our driver reckons he won a fortune betting on us this season. He said (and his words) Brighton are a big club now.
So from nearly going out of the league 20 years ago, to world wide notoriety. Makes you proud to be an Albion fan!
