[Albion] Glory fans in the East Stand

[Chicken Run]

How many of the people moaning about this about this weren't at the Palace cup game though? That's what I'd be feeling more embarrassed about.

I was there, I got Andros Townsends shirt!

This made me chuckle on that thread.

Next week - signs saying “Hazard can I have your house?”

Note to [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION].... Suggest a new field under usernames on NSC: "Team(s) supported".

Just so we know where we are, like.

(Actually, maybe "Kids support:" too?)

“Difficult day of football being a Chelsea fan and Brighton season ticket holder !!”

It’s nice for them when the club shows their teams games on Sky before 3 pm kick offs. First time I heard cheers when Chelsea/ManU or whoever scored on tv I was a little surprised but on reflection that’s what makes Premiership soccerball so thrilling. It would be quite a nice gesture if the club were to lay on beers from West London, Liverpool or Manchester in the home ends for these kind of grand occasions. Free half and half scarves in the club shop would really make a statement as well.

I think that is some of the most disgusting footage I ever seen.

Utter tripe.

In due respect, i went in the old North and it was often very quiet. Perhaps you are older than me and remember the 70's glory days but i remember it in the mid 80's.

And notice I said louder. The old North always sung a fair bit but often there were only a few hundred joining in.

You don't go anymore?

Thought you might have mentioned it in your near 21,000 posts?

Is this the highest post count for a member that doesn't support the Albion and has never once discussed the game of football?

Just curious?

Any Palace digging us out over this just show them the Cantona Kung fu kick... few Man Utd logos in the home end that night.

I suppose the saving grace is that it stopped our captain, Dunk, getting the shirt. His family live in Coldean, but are all Chelsea fans.

Having an away end could be confusing for some

Agreed, I’m ****ing livid over it ffs what a bunch of melts !

 

[neilbard]

Seriously? At the end, so called Brighton fans jizzing themselves over Eden Hazard, makes me feel sick. The father of the kid who got his shirt should be banned for that

Perhaps he wanted it to wipe his arse hole with.

First time I saw it I was pretty disgusted - but after reading some stuff on this thread I thought I'd take another look at video.
I've been lucky in my lifetime to see some pretty amazing footballers (albeit some like Maradona, Lineker, Van Basten and Gullit when I was very young). If a genuinely world class footballer had given me his shirt, even as an adult I think I'd be pretty damn chuffed. And if they did it for my son, I'd be totally made up.

Yesterday was one of the finest performances I've seen on a pitch by any player live. In 30 years of watching the game.

I don't think it's worth attacking the dad/son. And I'd have applauded if I'd seen that in front of me too.

Still no

clinches the argument against a NSC away end. It would require split personalities in many.

 

[Dave the OAP]

Agreed

But irrespective of who his dad supports, why shouldn't his son support someone different? There is no law to say that if your Ada supports a team you should also support that one. He may be a kid that likes Chelsea as a lot of kids do and also likes brighton...but hazard is his playing hero...as when I grew up, Georgie best was my hero...I wasn't a manu fan, but that didn't matter ...

I'm old school, I don't like it very much either, but before any further accusations are made I think that the perpetrators involved should be found and hauled up in front of the NSC discipline committee (any suggestions) to find out exactly what the situation was and who they support.
If they were all Brighton fans then they should all be sentenced to a week in the company of HB&B.
They won't do it again.

He can support whomever he chooses but home fans go in the home end and away fans go in the away end. If you're an away fan in the home end then you should show some respect to the home fans around you and keep schtum. That lad's dad didn't.

These aren't new-fangled rules. They are very well-established and long-standing.

Just seen this on Twitter, brilliant.

What would be great is if every proper Albion-supporting kid came to the next game with a sign like this. Any Albion player would do.
Redress the balance for the embarrassing tinpotness of yesterday
