[Football] Morgan speaks about his deep connection with BHA

[Triggaaar]

"I remember watching them as a teenager when they came up from the ....errr.....errrr.... lower division."

Proper football man our Piers.

'They went from the, er, er, lower division, next division, next division, first dividion'

Why not? its nice to be liked. I loved it when Frank Lampard said that everyone loves Brighton.

He's not alone. I have seen comments on NSC from other fans forums talking about us in terms of 'breath of fresh air' etc. The TB #dynasty approach is infectious and the whole set up at BHA is exhibiting the symptoms. Team spirit, humility, pragmatic planning, squad development etc etc etc etc. We are doing what a lot of clubs could only dream of, being a real football club, not a show pony 'asset' for a business oriented board or corporate raider chairman, sorry 'investor'.

It's nice to be liked but that is not what Morgan is doing. He is trying to claim some sort of vicarious credit for living more or less next door to the Amex and supporting the team (as his second club) during their rise through the "lower divisions". CJTC

 

[LamieRobertson]

Agree with all of the above except with one small addition of the word 'that' coming between 'disagree' and 'Piers'.

Oxygen thieving *****tain. Palace would be the perfect team for him.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

I'm sorry Arsenal, but you're welcome to keep him.

Probably used to sit in the North Stand at the goldstone and watch Peter Ward .

I think its fair enough to believe that Piers (aged 52) as a teenager, living in Newick, went with his mates to watch the Albion a few times in that 1977-84 period going through the divisions/Div 1 but doesn't necessarily remember it as well as some NSC veterans.

Slagging off Arsenal performance with no real credit to us
Don't want that **** anywhere near us to be honest. Soon as we have a bad spell he'll be all over twitter saying CH needs to go, players are useless etc

He must have at least one NSC account already then.

Just like Tony Blair .

 

[BUTTERBALL]

I know he lived in Horsted Keynes for a while, he was best friends with an ex-colleagues husband in the mid 90's.

decribes a number of the faces that have reappeared at the Amex in recent years and were otherwise occupied on Saturdays between 1984 and 2011.

He was right about Arsenal though, two thirds of the players are useless, and the manager needs to go.

My wife was at school with him. A total drip and nose picker. Hated sport

 

[happypig]

The village of Newick rang, they need their idiot back...

Unsurprising as he still knows absolutely sod all about football or cricket!

 

[Brovion]

I didn't even know he came from Sussex, let alone that he claimed us as his 2nd team. He kept that quiet all those years when we were shit; he doesn't deserve to have Sussex citizenship.

Come back Mike Ward, all is forgiven!

Hmm interesting, I must've been at school with your wife.
