[Football] BBC- Your club's most memorable final day?

[Deleted member 37369]

Not wishing to downplay a fellow Brighton fans opinions but I may suggest that another game where we stared into the abyss might have been slightly more memorable than last week...

He might have understood the question to be "Premier League memorable day" but still

Stuart is our bus driver on Seagull Travel ... a lovely chap. After getting us to the Amex he takes his seat in the North stand. I think it's understandable given the wave we're currently riding that he's gone for the 'now' rather than the game you (and no doubt many others) would have gone for. When you put the two side by side ... they are both pretty incredible.

Stuart needs a history lesson.

I bet he doesn't even know the colour of the boathouse.

 

[A1X]

I’m a JCL around these parts, one of the lost generation, but even I know that’s utter bollox

 

[Bedsex]

An extreme case of recency bias

 

[Deleted member 37369]

It would probably be close to 100% - just about everyone, apart from Stuart.

Bloody JCLs

Stuart is far from being a JCL. Clicking on the link below his comment, there's a bit more ... including ...

"What can I say? History in the making. The club have come so, so far since those dark last days of the Goldstone and fighting for survival in English football and fighting for a new ground."

Moron. A JCL moron. That’s all there is to it!

Anything but Hereford is simply the wrong answer. Maybe he didn’t understand the question?

Except you can’t put them side by side….other than that!

As I stated above - Stuart is not a JCL!

And he is most certainly not a moron! Once again, so may on here feeling they have to show how outraged they are that someone has a different opinion to them by throwing around childish insults.

It was a comment off the back of an amazing achievement ... caught up in the moment of what's just happened. It's on a BBC website for goodness sake ... hardly serious stuff!!

OK ... you are, of course, entitled to your opinion ... as is Stuart. No need to be insulting!

I don't know Stuart but he's entitled to his opinion without getting insulted on here.

Thank you ... that's the point I've been trying to make. Have a different view ... obviously ... but why is the default on here to then just throw playground insults.

Because unfortunately there are some posters who if you disagree with them their default is insults or to try and get you banned. The same posters who will preach 'tolerance' but they will only tolerate you if you agree with them.

Moron or not, it's just wrong to begin with, purely because it wasn't the final day!

Classic exam scenario fail: 'Always read the question'...

If it was 'What was the best/most memorable/most important game of this season?', he might have a point. I'm not even necessarily having a pop at him, I'd partly blame the person who put the article together, as they should've spotted it didn't fit and asked him to answer the actual question.

But then, who cares anyway, really?

 

[Peter Grummit]

Not the final day. I'm certainly not sorry to see them drop out of the PL, and its not Hereford, but apart from that...

Stuart's had a 'mare I'm afraid. Rule #1: read the question.

No offence intended. My comment was supposed to be lighthearted. As you suggest, the article is just a bit of fluff to fill a space on their website, not a definitive survey to inform the official history of the club. There's no reason for people to form a mob and go after Stuart with flaming torches.

If you're reading this, sorry Stuart. You got a load of stick for not picking the obvious response. Don't get down about it though, apply to go on Pointless. There's a coveted trophy and a weekend City break in those skills.

 

[nwgull]

I Googled this guy as I thought he must be a fan in his 20s or early 30s at most, in which case you could forgive his choice. However from the photos he looks to be in his 50s, so no excuse!

 

[Eric the meek]

Is this a private pile-in, or can anyone join in?

My opinion is that Stuart didn't mean any harm, was thrilled by this season's events, and I'm not at all sure this thread should have even been started.

 

[Simster]

Anyway, that day - I think we just pipped Reading didn't we? I can only imagine how upset their fans must've been to find we'd scored a last minute winner thus depriving them of a play off place. If only someone somewhere had captured the moment at Reading.

For the love of God, can someone PLEASE tap it in?

Thank you ...

Sometimes the 'obvious' answer for some isn't the same for everyone. Let's not forget, the club has many young supporters that weren't even a thought in their parents heads (or trousers ) when Hereford happened. These young people aren't JCLs and we shouldn't expect them to rate an event that happened before they were born over something they were able to experience first hand themselves.
