Certainly a fence-sitter. Needs to come out on one side.

TLO, Lord B, Yorkie

But if they truly believe in what Dk and co are doing what is wrong with that?

Just because others don't agree with them doesn't make them wrong or sycophants just their opinion.

Maybe the ones who have got too close. The ones who agree even though they know a mistake has been made (maybe over ticketing allocation or something.)


Apart from Ian Hart. Which other ''faces'.' Are there any.

Didn't agree with the sacking of McGhee and thought the West Ham allocation was a minor error, but straining every sinew to become a 100% club sycophant again :thumbsup:

I don't get people who bust a gut to slag the club off or those that feel that they should constantly defend the club because of some higher moral purpose. I don't understand why people don't just give more balanced opinions that aren't so agenda lead, i.e 'I hate this person and that player for no reason' or 'look at me look at me I'm a super fan and your all shit fans'.

On a theme some people on here love it when things go wrong and they team keep losing - they just love it, i say love it.

Mind you, saying that most balanced posts often get ignored. Most people seem to want to side a certain way and argue that corner. Also with balanced views you can get both sides slagging you off for seemingly showing sympathies towards the other side, even though you may also be sharing some of their opinions. Also you run the risk of being acused of fence sitting even when you have put forward a perfectly rational argument that doesn't side step any issues.

Thats whats weird, certain people love slagging the team off which I find strange. Conversely some people will not hear a bad word said against certain players or staff who are their favorites even if that individual or individuals has made a mistake. Even if the criticism is constructive.

Name the guilty. And while we're at it, let's round up anyone that dares to sing "I'm Brighton till I die".

Some players do seem to be teflon, Kuipers and Oatway spring to mind.

If you say something out of line some people seem to get very upset.

I think certain people on here are just the type of people who just see no wrong in people such as Yorkie. I get the impression she is a fan who doesn't want to belive in anything bad being part of the club. While this may be slightly deluded I feel it is also commendable.
However it is those that love the cache of being a super fan, who think they have the moral high ground just by the virtue of defending everything and saying anyone who challenges them is a bad fan that get on my tits.

We just need Yorkie seconded now and she can apply for sycophant membership.

I think that is unfair, there are a lot of people on here who talk very sensibly. The trouble is they get bored of all the infighting so it is those posters who get involved regularly that seem to get noticed. Also a lot on here having a sense of humour seems to get you grief, people either don't take what you say seriously or become offended at what you say.
