Ultras - What's the big idea?

[Gazwag]

oh good another ultra bashing thread - BORING

 

[jimmypbha]

And do these 'ultras' appear in other places than the North stand?

I wouldn't know. We have only started off small and in the place where the club labelled as the "singing" stand. We what the North stand to become like it was at the Goldstone. This is mainly a North Stand thing hence the name. However, everyone in the stadium can join in and sing if they want.

Ultras=group of fans who will work damn hard to get an atmosphere going.

But that doesn't make them in any way superior or better fans than anyone else.

And I have not witnessed anything to suggest they have tried to do this, it seems certain posters thinks its a laugh to constantly criticise them

We do not see ourselves as superior or better. We are all Brighton Fans and should get behind the team and stop these petty attacks on each other

 

[Quinney]

Nothing wrong with lads. Keep the singing going, so fair play to them. The Amex would be a lot quieter, and a lesser atmosphere without them.

I know. It's just the name Ultra kind of implies this.

Should they be the North Stand Khoir?

However, the Ultras-bashing is PATHETIC.

 

[Seagull on the wing]

The group is not all young. We have people from the majority of age ranges. However, there is quite a few "young" people (18-30). We are just a new generation that want to combine everyone together to continue the fantastic atmosphere at the Amex

Nothing wrong with Ultras adding to the atmosphere,was young myself....ONCE...no like to see them sing and chant...as long as it stays that way and we have no hooliganism bringing the club into distrepute then by all means sing away lads...but please try and come up with new songs,we know we all hate Palace and we know you are the Northstand Brighton boys...lets have songs which no other club uses....

 

[Baby Potts]

about as "Kollective" as relations between the Israeli's and the Palestinians

I asked this a while back.

You have almost 60 years of popular music to choose from, hundreds of years' worth of classical music, and Christ alone knows how many cultures' songs. Why pick on feeble ones sung by bindippers and caravan-dwellers?

I have no problem with you lot whatsoever but please try not to make songs only applicable to certain sections of support ala the Whooooah song. It makes you look incredibly insular. While your at it can you also get a CMS song together that everyone can sing, Craig Mackail Smith lalalalala to the tune of Brown Girl in the ring preferably as all the others are unoriginal and rubbish ;o)

This is spot on and what we hope to achieve.

OK, ta. I honestly didn't know.

This is a good call I can see it now, Just not sure how to go after the initial 'Craig Mackail Smith, lalalalalla' bit repeat hmmm I'll get my cap on

Edit: Infact keeping it simple like(See below) and continuing til wave from CMS is very good.

Craig Mackail Smith,
La la la la la
Craig Mackail Smith
la la la la la-la
Craig Mackail Smith
la la la la

etc
