[Football] British-Polish supporters of Brighton

ukpolska · 2024-11-14T13:04:05+0000

I am British and have lived in Poland for 25 years and went to my first Brighton game in 1966 when I was four years old and I have never met another British supporter of Brighton in Poland in all the years I have been here. I have however met recently a few Polish Brighton supporters and there is even a Polish Brighton supporters club.
I was wondering if there are any Brits living in Poland supporting Brighton? :albion2:

I’m not a Brit living in Poland, but I am a half-Polish man living in Brighton. My father came to the UK as a refugee in 1948, having been born in the rural east close to the former Ukrainian border. I went to my first Albion game in 1983 (the Norwich FA cup tie).

It always pleases me to see a Polish connection on NSC and with the club more widely.

Last weekend I watched the match in Legends Bar in Warsaw surrounded by British Man City fans with one massive smug face at the end of the match.

How do you join? Do you need to make a Pledge?

I'm trying to remember his username but I'm taking a guess from his surname that our resident national football correspondent on here has some Polish heritage.

My wife is Polish, been to the Amex a few times plus dragged her along Milwall away a couple of times when we lived in Brockley. My two sons aged 2 and 4 are both half Polish and my youngest was at 4:1 Chelsea / GPott game a couple of years ago as a 6 month old lucky charm

Charlie and Michael Sheen qualify.

I think this thread needs a poll, or maybe another Pole.

If you came to Brighton you wouldn't feel far from home. We have a Polish community and even Polish shops.
