[Albion] So who had a Spud next to them?

[monty uk]

There was a scandinavian tourist next to us. A Brighton tourist. He absolutely loved it

Edit: I think he was Scandinavian. He could have been from Grimsby. [MENTION=37530]monty uk[/MENTION] can confirm.

He was Swiss. Clearly loves football so that's fine with me and had a clear preference for us. He's going to Newcastle tomorrow. Doubt it'll be a anywhere near as good.

Chatted to a Spurs ST holder, who lives near Winchester, earlier in the week. One who spent thousands going to Madrid last year. He didn't plan to go today. Just as well really. Commented that Spurs are 'vulnerable'. Which could be the understatement of the year.

A blatant Spurs fan in front of me, never seen him before, begrudgingly clapped each of our goals. Whenever a ‘big’ team comes to town this seat is occupied by an away fan, and it’s quite enjoyable to goad them. Today, at 3-0, I loudly said to my mate next to me “we should sing you’re not a big club anymore, but in reality they never have been’ the blokes face was a picture

 

[B-right-on]

Sure there was 2 along from us. When the 3rd went in they barged past us as miserable as f*** and never came back.

 

[BN41Albion]

None around where I was !

 

[Sussexscots]

Nope, in fact, the bit of the East Upper I'm in was, if anything, more animated and excited than usual.

Long may that continue.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

He was Swiss. Clearly loves football so that's fine with me and had a clear preference for us. He's going to Newcastle tomorrow. Doubt it'll be a anywhere near as good.

He was absolutely gasping at some of our play. It made me smile. And he had badged teamwear on. What's not to like

Never more so than when there was a clear "We're the East Side, we're the east side..." response to the North in the second half. Happy days.

 

[Sirnormangall]

No obvious Spurs fans in my part of the east stand - probably too embarrassed to reveal themselves

 

[RM-Taylor]

Disappointing that when Connolly scored his first goal and ran towards the SW corner you can clearly see 3, maybe 4 Spurs fans in the front row just sat there motionless whilst everyone else went mental celebrating.

 

[Juan Albion]

Saw a few wearing colours amongst our fans on TV. Shocking.

 

[Vankleek Hill Seagull]

My aunt did but that was her husband, my uncle. Her Brighton, him Spurs. I think she enjoyed her day more than him.

 

[The Birdman]

We had spurs fans with us yesterday but they respected our stand as we all have friends and family who support other teams.
How many Brighton fans have sat with friends at away games and not in the away section.

 

[Sorrel]

I did, as my father is a Spurs fan who hadn't seen them play live for years (but has plenty of stories of White Hart Lane in the 1950s).

 

[The Maharajah of Sydney]

Thought this Swedish bird lost it a bit.

 

[rabbitmaddie]

Had a dad and four year old, with spurs painted on his forehead, next to us in 1901. Asked son at half time if he was enjoying game. He smiled brighlty, dad grunted. Dad dragged son off at 80 mins - “can’t watch anymore of this”.

 

[Pondicherry]

Outside the West stand an hour before kick off. Two Koreans (I presume) in Spurs shirts, flags, bags and hat. BHA club official is with them. "We have a slight problem here, your tickets are for seats with the Brighton fans".

 

[Chicken Run]

Lots of Spurs in 1901 (most weeks)

The short tubby Harvey’s lounge steward is a Spurs fan [emoji23]

Are you in the WSU?
I noticed one near me, never seen him before but wasn't going mad when we scored, but did clap.

We saw them post match. Part of a mob of 100’s waiting by the Spuds coach, looking for autographs and to scream adoration at their amazingly successful team.
