Mr ChickenBaltiPie you are obviously the sensible voice of reason amongst all the miserable old twats on NSC. Oh hang on a minute; wasn't it you who posted the following on the subject of bringing new fans to the club: "after having three very loud, 'challenged' women behind me rabbit on...

On Friday night amongst people wearing various home shirts of the last 10 years I saw a large proportion of people wearing the following Albion away shirts: - fluorescent yellow - pinky red - black and red stripes - black and green stripes - yellow with black trimming - orange and black And...

I thought it was genius by the caterers to only have one poor girl running the Harveys beer stand outside the ground by the bandstand. At one point the queue was over 80 metres long. I suggested to a steward that he talk to someone about getting her some help and obviously his reaction was...

No, no it wasn't. If you reckon that was only 19K then you haven't been to many football matches.

The voice of youthful enthusiasm...

Yawn... haven't you read anything over the last 30 years about how funding could never be pulled together to re-build the West Pier and why the i360 project succeeded? And that future profits will go towards the West Pier?

Excellent quote about the Eiffel Tower from Bold Seagull. The i360 will be a famous Brighton land-mark and generating profits for a very long time after everyone on this forum is pushing up the daisies...

Yeah and what about Steve Coogan?

You are spot on - I lived in those areas of north London for 10 years and moving back to Brighton 20 years ago was the best decision I ever made. Much as I think London is a fantastic city, us ordinary mortals can't afford to live in any of the good bits. Plenty of people don't "get" Brighton...

Yes you will be bothered about it because all the young people will judge you...

You're an ugly monstrosity...it will be a thing of great beauty

My take on it is that nobody, absolutely nobody has the same taste and style at 50 that they had when they were 18. Most people on here will have been into something when they were young; punk, mod, skinhead, goth, heavy metal, casual, etc.and we can all look back on the photos and have a...

You are damned right...yes there was a buzz and an excitement about being around it but I certainly remember poor sods getting isolated and getting a terrible battering and that sure isn't anything to celebrate.

Do you think so Rev? I agree that there would be hundreds milling around at the hot-spots for those matches, shouting, shoving, running about and swearing, but I still reckon that when it came down to it there was around 200-300 on each side who were really up for it, maybe another couple of...

There are elements of truth in "The Seagulleaters" account but he massively exaggerates the numbers, and gives the impression that these were all hardened hooligans. As a lot of people on here will know the vast majority of us young teenagers on both sides were only acting the hooligan but...

Totally agree...wise words.

That comment is probably on par with anything the "thick" Americans in the vid said..!

Errr...actually yes you can, and no it's not.

I agree entirely, it will be an exciting new landmark for the city and personally I'm very happy for the council to lend money to the project. I just hope I don't have to read yet another comment on here or the Argus saying "why don't they spend the money on re-building the West Pier". Where...

I agree that they are based in the most soulless part of London (well it's not really London is it? That swathe of Croydon/Norwood/Fornton'eath, etc is fecking horrible), and they are very irritating, and their ground is horrible, and their chav "mob" when they come to Brighton is pathetic, but...
