[Albion] Recognition.

[smudge]

In Las Palmas, Gran Canaria today. Went for a run at lunch time along the prom. I had an Albion training top on.
Coming towards me were a large group of schoolkids, being escorted by a teacher. I'd estimate around 20-30 of them, aged 11-12 maybe.
As I get closer, one of them starts shouting, "Hey, Brighton, Vamos!" Then all the others joined in as I ran past, shouting Brighton, Brighton!

We've come a long way.

Excellent! At least they didn’t come out with the ages old “You’ll never make the station” ditty.

We have indeed It also helps of course that we have signed a fair few players over recent years from La Liga, I imagine that quite a number of Spanish footie fans would be well aware of us by now.

I was in Florida over Christmas, and in a couple of the theme parks, I was wearing BHA related malarkey, but quite restrained/less obvious, yet still had people commenting - non-Brits mainly! The first US voice I heard singing "Seagulls!" took me back a little!

In Los Gigantes Saturday, young lad with Albion shirt and No 10 Rutter on back ... about to give him a 'Seeeeegulls' but his Ma took him off into a bar

I had a work meeting in Berlin recently, when I checked in to the hotel, showing the passport to the receptionist, he looks at it and sees my birthplace as Brighton and says “you’re a Seagulls supporter, Yes?” That has never been said to me on my travels before.

I was at universal about 5 years ago, saw a lad in an Albion top and sang very loudly “aye aye Ashley Barnes”, the kid shat himself. I apologise if he was a relative of anyone on here.
