Boot The Gays Outta Brighton

[GUNTER]

Are we really ready for more taunting from opposition fans next season. Once again, this ridiculous charade 'Pride' takes place next weekend (for people like Watford O to enjoy).

I think hetrosexuals should have a similar day, proud to be straight.

f*** off gays, we dont wanta be taunted any more!

 

[coach03]

Try and be a tad more tolerant and accept diversity. It's what makes Brighton great.
Never mind the taunting from the opposition, think of a quick retort (or better still, plan one). As we've been talking about chants there's an opportunity to have a go back and let them know how unoriginal they all are.
I can't think of one for the moment but I'm sure I will.

Wind up alert. Somebody's fishing.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

I live opposite the park. Last month it was (OK, cheap shot, but good line anyroads) 'Pikey In The Park' for the under-16 Burberried psycho youth of West Sussex on an awayday and the, ahem, over-16s who worship the strangely-eyebrowed junior rock gods that are Busted. Last weekend it was the Royal Institute For The Blind , with an appearance byKatie Price (aka Jordan) and her wee boy Harvey doing some kind of of bungey-rope thang. And next weekend it's Pride. They got the same rights as every other sector of the BN1 community, they do nobody any harm, they add a shitload of colour to the streets and they f*** up traffic- all of which count as good work so far as I'm concerned , and there'll be no doubt good /naff sets by the likes of Jimmy Somerville, Junior Senior, Soft Cell. It'll cost you nothing, it'll start at midday and be over by 4pm.

What's the worst that can happen?

Well apart from it clashing with the Oldham game, that is...

 

[Lush]

Lol at THPP. I will never forget two "heavily moustachioed guys" in an open-top sports car stuck in traffic going north - just as everyone came out of the football.

 

[Brovion]

But Gunter you ARE gay. These homophobic rants are fooling no one.

 

[Bozza]

Amusingly Pride was on the same day as my wedding, nearly two years ago.

I say amusingly, because after our reception in The Grand we went downstairs to the nightclub - still in full wedding regalia - my wife in her dress still. Whilst there, a lesbian tried to pull my wife. That woman likes a challenge - trying to convert a straight woman on her wedding day!

 

[aftershavedave]

funniest thing i've seen on pride day, and i kid you not, was an old lady asking a very tall , and bearded , nun directions to churchill square. she even called her "sister"

 

[CHAPPERS]

Pride is great fun.

Go to booze shop, buy pineapple breezers, buy bubble guns, go to park, sit down, get wasted.

 

[Marc]

I dont mind gays as long as they dont try and pull me!

I've always wanted a Straight Pride festival

 

[Lady Whistledown]

The alternative to living somewhere with a diverse community, relaxed atmosphere and broad range of entertainment like Brighton is to live in some hideous concrete void like Crawley where every bar is a dreary Wetherspoons chain pub full of 15 year old slappers and wannabe hard-men. All the locals act, speak and dress the same. And support Palace or Chelsea.

I know what I'd prefer (and it's not 10,000 13 year olds smoking and screeching while they push their 2 kids- by 2 different fathers-around the County Mall).

If the "gay" chants at games bother you, humour them, like Ipswich and Exeter fans do to the Country Bumpkins taunts, ie sing about tractor boys and Ambrosia.

I went to the promotion winning game at Plymouth in 2001, and their fans were singing the usual "does your boyfriend...etc" and various other songs about poofs. They shut up pretty quickly when a bunch of Albion fans shouted back "we're gay/ and we're beating you" and "two nil/ to the bunch of poofs". It was well worth the admission money to see the Argyle top boys lost for words.

Bang on. I'm all for more of this in the coming season

 

[Bozza]

Absolutely. Albion fans are, I believe, more imaginative than any other. The number of spontaneous songs that come about, is fantastic. We have been a little bit slow in bouncing some of the gay stuff back though.

We really do have the funniest, wittiest and loudest fans in the league, don't we.

Proud to be Brighton

 

[Artois]

Snap Bozza.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

but the question is, of course, will all you red blooded (are gay men not red blooded then?) heterosexual males out there be able to cope with that kind of ironic, self-mocking humour?

Being female, I don't care one bit, but I bet a few people will wince at singing "we're gay, and we're beating you".

 

[¤DãŃn¥ §êãGüLL¤]

The gays in Brighton seem to keep themselves to themselves really, most of them converge in Kemp Town and they stick to it, it's not like you get thousands of obviously gay people marching down every street in Brighton like most of these away fans seem to think. And if they think that, who gives a shit.

 

[Tom Bombadil]

I liked Cambridges fans a couple of seasons back, when instead of the usual does your boryfriend know you're here stuff they broke into a chorus of YMCA with all the arm movements.

 

[Lady Whistledown]

maybe we should beat them to it and sing YMCA instead then....?

We must be able to come up with some other suitably witty efforts.

 

[Artois]

Although we seem to think that every road in Liverpool has a car on bricks with it's tyres nicked, or fridge-freezers in every front garden in Pikey Gillingham.

And that's not the case either....... oh wait....
