How racist were albion fans in the 70's
- Thread starter Return of the Rev
- Start date
I'm sure it would be illegal now and might well have been then. However the Police (generalisation of course) were out and out racists back then and cared little for the law at football matches

The Police back then would just give you a clip round the ear and send you on your way

Not compared to London or some other places but deffo loads more than there was even 10 years ago. Time was that you rarely saw any black people in Brighton except the day trippers. Not so now. We don't have many black supporters though which is indicative that most of our support is drawn from the locals rather than incomers.
I was recently at Stamford bridge...there is a proper cross section of London faces there and a much more representative ethnic mix.

Remember it well..... Scuffling in the aisles after catching up with some mouthy Herbert's who dared to challenge our right to be a public nuisance........ silly behaviour, generally much regretted.

It just reads like something you really wished you had the bollocks to do, but didnt.

Are you referring to our 3-0 win which relegated them from Div 1 in 1982? If so all the racial abuse came from Palace that day.

What was the attendance ?
I have two Asian foster sisters and an asian foster brother, back in the Seventies I also had mates who were racist, it was just the way it was back then.
