According to The Seagulls! book. They insisted on giving the Nazi salute when they arrived at Hove Station, at the Civic reception and before kick off.

Losing 3-2 ought to have been a sign that the salute wasn't very talismanic. They should have thought of the haka, which does better for the Maoris and All-Blacks

Who KNOWS how WWII would have turned out if they'd have done that!?

True, it's got no tits

You fool. That's not a Nazi salute. They're just practising their offside trap.

I once stayed in Wuppertal for a week. There's a plaque.

A penguin at the local zoo followed me around, but we didn't exchange addresses

There's an overhead railway, which is uber kool
