[Albion] Bit of handbags at the station

Arkwright · 2025-03-09T19:09:06+0000

Stayed for a couple of beers after the game. On the Lewes train a group were singing the Lewis Dunk song that Palace sing.
Nasty bunch to be honest, got the feeling they wanted a brawl.
Like others always found Fulham fans to be a decent bunch, however yesterday found them to be an arrogant group both pre and post match at Lewes.

Anyone else see the punch up at falmer station and the subsequent arrest of some bloke off the lewes bound train.

lots of posturing and shouting in the queues too and arm waving.

didnt normally think of Fulham fans as mouthy twats , but there were quite a few.

They were causing a lot of agg in town in the early evening.

I’ve heard Hugh Grant is a nightmare when he gets on the gear at football

Thier away behaviour was like Crawley with A levels.

"Hugh Grant is a big fan of Fulham Football Club and has been seen attending matches at home and away" ... apparently.

Very surprised at all this bellendery- especially with Fulham fans of all clubs! I didn't see any trouble and the Fulham fans I came across were all very decent!

Ah! I had no idea.

I’ve have seen Hugh Grant in Brighton a few times but I think he was here seeing Coogan when they were suing the phone hacking papers.

I love how everyone on here thinks they have the ability to spot people on cocaine and consider it the reason for any bellendry despite many drinking 10 pints whether having a snort or not

The combination of cocaine and booze is behind much aggression now, including football attendance related. Plenty of links online from senior police and academic studies eg Uni of Kent and Uni of Stirling. When police sweep a packed train, they find an array of just discarded cocaine.

Creating average joes who think they’re Jon Jones in the moment.

Agreed. Made worse by good weather.

Love a good game in the sunshine but means people drink/consume more prior/after and it makes everything worse.

I seize bags of coke off patients regularly but most prevalent for younger revellers (18-25) is Ket.

The amount of shouts we get to kids outside venues in a K-hole has increased substantially this year.

Drinking in pubs and clubs is very expensive. So a lot of young people pre-drink at home. To the point of near collapse.

They come into town and because venues are so desperate for money they let them in and keep serving them.

Instead of spending £50 on alcohol in a venue, they’ll take £20 worth of Ket and within half an hour they are a dribbling, paranoid mess on the pavement with their friends freaking out and insisting “they must have been spiked”.

Sweetheart, she’s had a bottle of vodka at home, three shots of tequila and a bag of Ket and all she ate is a bowl of Nachos about 8 hours ago. She’s not been spiked. She’s absolutely spangled.

Give them half an hour and some calming words and they are up ans able to walk home.

Every weekend, time and time again.

It’s so, so bad for you.

And yeah, coke is absolutely behind the aggression. Cheap, poor quality, taken by people that are dickheads even without the chemical enhancement

Football’s different though. People take coke to keep themselves drinking and not fall asleep and / or to feel like Danny Dyer in the movies.

There was a video of a Plymouth fan who’d done ket and drunk on Twitter recently. He couldn’t have hit his own right ear with either hand.

At Leicester a couple of seasons ago I saw a Brighton yoof singled out by the police dogs and he immediately started protesting he’d “sat in something” on the train. (Probably the most unbelievable part of his story is the idea anyone had a seat on the train.)

Is that classified as a good night out these days

Certainly not my idea of a good night out.

A few mates round a table in a grown up pub or restaurant please.

I remember....(details not require)
I thought I was the most interesting person in the whole wide world.
I was absolutely the best.
The idea of needing to prove it by provoking a fight, however....

Dick heads taking drugs are dick heads before they take the drugs.
If they up the ante by starting on people they are just excusing themselves from blame.
But it really is their fault.

And . . . into the wood chipper and out to sea with them.

One guy dressed in high waisted pin striped trousers, shiny brogues, a cropped suit jacket and Fulham scalf singing 'Brighton is a shithole...' made me chuckle. Guy looked like he was auditioning for Peaky Blinders or the cover of Vogue. What a total bellend!

I noticed this chap in the South Stand bar - he's probably a sartorial descendant of the 1980s 'Fulham Yachting Types' .

Mind you, I did comment to my mates about the Amex being a dump, because there was no Harvey's (or Pimms) in the bar.
