Let's be honest, he will have definitely heard some racist abuse during his career, but I think he is exaggerating for effect. I have seen him play against us at least four times and yes I've heard him being abused for falling over, but I can honestly say I have never heard him being abused...
This doesn't make sense because a) Garry Nelson's Teacher wasn't trying to score any political points, and b) I can't think of anything representing the failure of politics more than the second world war where the ideologies of facism, communism and liberal democracy slugged it out.
I will...
Oh blimey, not all this old nonsense again. If you look at average attendances of Leagues 1 and 2 last season our 8,000 at Withdean would comfortably put us in mid-table. And of course if Withdean had a higher capacity our averages would have been a lot higher in the successful seasons (I can...
If it wasn't for your 20,000 posts I could almost believe you were Palace with your line about gaining 20k fans. Are you forgetting the previous 20 years of mismanagement, homelessness and decline where we lost 20k fans? Oh hang on that balances out in terms of decline and growth - what a...
Errr...because Potter has built his reputation on working with and improving the squad he has rather than big money transfers. The presumption is that some of our disappointing signings could come good with a different coach/system. And I presume he will be allowed to spend on a couple of new...

NS season ticket holders who don't sing their heads off every game relocating to ES and SS.
Reading that makes me realise that despite 40 years of watching matches I only really have a tenuous understanding of what is happening before my eyes. I can however just about spot an offside...
The poll needed a third option:
No the intent wasn't racism but he deserved to get sacked for arrogantly assuming everything he posts is funny and for being so feckin' stupid...
Maybe he didn't, but I find it astonishing that he didn't think for one second how it could be construed. It's a shame because the Windsors welcoming a mixed race woman into the family is probably the only positive thing I've ever thought about them. My advice to anyone in the public eye...
Agreed Triggaar, I am exactly the same as you and I know many the same. I would also throw in the having babies factor which meant I was not at liberty to go many matches, maybe 4 or 5 a season in the WIthdean years. Since the kids are grown-up I and my pals have got ourselves season tickets...
The owner has seriously misjudged this; his gable end was a landmark and now is a meaningless advert. Who knows how to start one of those on-line petitions to have it re-instated?
