Does Brighton have a football hooligan firm

[Dolph Ins]

The Bosun was Albion’s hooligan firm ,

I remember walking past the Bosun with my Dad back in the early 70's with very drunk skinheads falling in or out of the place. Frightening for a young chap.

I remember when we played Arsenal in the FA cup at the Goldstone...89, 88? Niall Quin header won it for them.

Any road. Later that night I was in the Laines drinking with some other Albion in the black lion when someone outside threw a dartboard through the window, we all look out and see a mob of arsenal wilding down the street waving for sale signs about. About ten of our lads came out and started calling them back...and back they came. Ugly scenes followed. It's offing
All over middle street and surrounds when suddenly the arsenal lads decide to leg it...you'll never guess why...there were a trio of trannies in full drag who appeared and started laying into them too. It was the most bizarre thing I'd ever seen.

 

[Questions]

You ruined it with Laines though.

Armed with ‘For Sale’ signs ?
Were they Estate Agents from Islington ?

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Very harsh
Do you really get offended by men fighting men?
It will be a very very very sad day if the football hooly's disappear from football in the future....Something very special about our hooly culture,something to be proud of in this country being an Englishman and long may it continue.

I don't care if some think its pathetic...Its not pathetic its brilliant

Worth a bounce.

Is it brilliant, though? Or is it pathetic?

A very difficult question.

Or is it?

Punctuation, though. Spaces after commas, and that. Necessary?

If you're proper English then yes, yes it is necessary.

I'm eternally proud of being English when I see a group of blokes fighting over their allegiances to 22 men who kick a bag of air around a patch of grass. Makes yer proud it does.

Having lived for bit over 60 years, I don't think that any of my 5 most frightening experiences have involved a group of teenagers, egged on by a few 40 year olds at a football match, and certainly not at the Goldstone, Selhurst or the Den in the 70s/80s v Palace, Millwall, Chelsea, Spurs etc

If you were a teenager it was exciting, but not once you'd grown up. Sorry

No need to be sorry.

You slag.

Reading this in a public space that made me snort-laugh like the kind of person I hate. Thank you.
