Looking for international Albion fans

[Jo Wadsworth]

I'm the web editor at The Argus, and I would really appreciate your help with a piece we're doing ahead of Saturday's vital game. We are looking for Albion fans from around the globe to show just how much support the team will have.

If you support Albion and live abroad, or if you know someone who does, it would be great if you could email me at jo.wadsworth@theargus.co.uk, or leave a comment on this story so I can get in touch.

We are particularly looking for fans who can take pictures of themselves raising the roof, so we can plot their locations on a map and include the pictures on that.

will we have to wear a mask?

 

[Easy 10]

Naah, I wouldn't worry.
He'll be with me in block D.

Maybe the players will repeat the infamous Ring-a-Roses goal celebration...

Atishoo! Atishoo!
Match Abandoned!

Tom, you're a star! Thanks loads for this. I'll post a link if we get enough fans for what we're planning - this thread will hopefully help out a lot.

Aye-up, Tom's pulled

I'll contribute.

What do I have to do?

I am thinking OWUSU art can be created from this

I'm quite surprised there hasn't yet been a SLADE art thread! Especially with picture you have as an avatar, Brett.

Jo - there is the 'Flying Squad' who meet up in the UK for the Albion's last game of the season, every season. Already in the UK for this years are Albion fans from Malaysia and Canada.

Could you not spell Azerbaijan, Bozza?

And, by the way, are you going to turn up this year?

Thanks Bozza and Nige - that sounds really interesting. I'll get a reporter to get in touch with the hotel!

Tyrone - just email me at jo.wadsworth@theargus.co.uk - I'm just after pictures of fans "Raising the Roof" (i.e. putting both hands in the air, as in our campaign) and brief details of how long you've been a Seagulls fan, why you support them, and any messages of support for the team ahead of Saturday's game.

 

[Digweeds Trousers]

Jo - if it's any use to you I'm coming from Swaffham on Saturday and would love to do an interview about the journey if you're interested - pm me if so.

I can speak over the phone if better - you can call me at 8.15am tomorrow....or 95 to 10....or 360 past 12...........

Hey Jo, I think it would be a far more interesting story if you paid for a guy to fly over from Canada, supply him with a free ticket for the game, and then ask him how it felt to be at a game that he never expected to make. Now THAT would make a great story. You could even give it a "Jim'll Fix It" feel by putting him up in a fancy hotel and supplying all-you-can-eat fish and chips.

Come to think of it, I know a bloke who might be interested. . . :yahoo:

My uncle is flying in from Mexico for the game. Really looking forward to seeing him.

Is he bringing some oinkment with him ?

I've emailed Jo this picture.

Taken at Tauranga harbour with Mount Maunganui in the background with my 3 month old daughter Emily. I tried getting her to hold her arm up but she wasn't having a bar of it!
