[Albion] Foreign “Brighton fans” on Twitter, Instagram etc….

[Garyoldfan]

Now I’m not racist (I talk to a black guy at work and he seems ok), BUT I do get wound up by our new fans from far afield slagging some of our players off when they’ve never been to a game and only “support” us because of how well we’re doing.

I know the ‘live and let live’ crowd will hate this post but I think you should have to openly support Brighton 5 years before making a comment on the internet. It will be tough to regulate but we need a way

I think the only people that should be allowed on the Internet should be those that can create valid HTML by hand.

Reply of The Day here, early doors . What a pathetic "look at me" opening post.

The plastic overseas fans of the so called big 6 are even more annoying. Chelsea “fans” especially seem to comment on every single post the club make with some nonsense about how they are coming for this player, or how we are a small club.

They couldn’t find Stamford Bridge if they were dropped off on the Fulham Road.

There some absolute plums supporting us on Twitter though, you're not wrong there.

Given the opening clause, I think some of you have leapt straight into the net.

Yes, this was the serious comment I was going to make. Idiots like Mod and Pys who couldn't find London on a map.

I doubt that is even a joke, (many a true word said in jest and all that)
I think you maybe.

And to prove my point, we have many "new" fans from all over the world - Not one certain ethnic background, so why single one out.

Your a baby boomer aren't you, you sound like my ignorant dad.

Right'O

Having said that, I could have been reeled in hook line and sinker,

I assumed it was another @crodonilson style parody account.

Maybe, but two OPs this week aiming criticism at foreign fans. Boo.

I’m trying to think whether I ‘openly support Brighton’ as I would quite like to continue commenting on the club. I certainly don’t hide my support if it comes up in conversation. On the other hand I don’t go to the pub in stripey shorts carrying a 30 feet long flag adorned with a picture of Tony Bloom….

I think 12 years until you can post

I am not surprised if you live in Birkenhead.

“Improving our global brand” .
It’s not the ones coming over here I have the issue with, They have my blessing. It’s the ‘carro saltadores’ that get my goat.

 

[Oh_aye]

Couldn't stop laughing at that first line. (I'm assuming it's a lovely bit of satire!).

I often find the output of NFF (new foreign fans) is at worst inane.

'GO MY CAPTAIN DANKY'

'MY BEST TEAM HEART SEAGALS. PURE POWER! GO!'

Usually from accounts from sub saharan africa. I honestly think they just like the Prem. And link Into whatever team is hot shit.

So we should just be happy that we are the current hot shìt. And not in the bad skidmarky way.
