Its great knowing that we have a few lads who can have a go who follow the Albion. That is what football is all about. Do you all honestly want all our supporters to paint our faces, wear replica shirts and applaud politely when the opposition score?

Speak for yourself
You will find that many hooly's are rather intelligent so its not about that is it.Probably because most on here can't fight so have to have a dig

...or chose not to.
I can think of plenty of things worth fighting for, just to get one over the supporters of another footy team isn't high on the list!

They use their rapier like wit in order to savage their opponents
It's more than that. It's tribal

What the people on here fail to grasp in their blinkered minds is that there is a whole culture surrounding football (clothing, music, and yes, fighting) which is as important as what goes on on the football pitch. I have lost count of the England aways (mostly friendlies admitidly) where I have travelled to another country and not bothered going to the game as I was having too much fun in the town centre.

i always note that there's a lot of "holier then thou" bull posted on here by a lot of people who simply sit at home and make judgements without having anything like all the facts at their disposal
i don't suppose it'll take much soul-searching, you all know who you are
and you’re all incredibly quick to pass these judgements aren’t you
who the hell do you think you are?
i have supported albion for years and go both home and away - as much as is possible - oh, and i was actually at the southend game too [i.e. not sitting listening at home and pontificating and whinging from afar]
i’ve seen it all too many times before but yesterday i became a a victim of it….
i did nothing wrong, had been nowhere near the seafront or any trouble and to be honest, i hadn't even said boo to a goose all day, but on leaving the ground i was manhandled and shoved into the "naughty group" by the police and we were then held, penned in, for a while and then "escorted" [publicly paraded] to the train station
and may i also just let you know that these police did everything they could to provoke reaction from this group of us
they were extremely sarcastic and rude - yes I’m a grown-up and yes i know that old chestnut "sticks and stones may break my bones" [unless however something is said to them, when of course, it’s suddenly an entirely different matter!]
the worse thing was their manhandling and repeated and continual shoving, this was entirely unnecessary
when i politely asked one of them to stop his continual shoving me in the back he snarled back “or what?” with menace, like the bully he was
on the day i was in a group of three men and two women who had, as usual, caused no trouble whatsoever but was i not quite so placid i might well have reacted and possibly retaliated to this totally over the top, patronising, heavy handed and overly aggressive treatment and in doing so become yet another casualty and a marked man and someone you could all hang draw and quarter from your laptops
i don't suppose you care a hoot for the humiliation we had to endure when being “escorted” to the station - all the people on the streets and in their cars seeing us paraded in such a fashion and staring, believing us to be "hooligans"
and what if my or any of my fellow ''marchers” employers saw us? although we were all totally innocent [and no-one was charged for anything btw] in a group surrounded by police? what assumptions might they make?
troublemakers need to be stopped and the police should indeed enforce our laws and endeavour to keep us all safe but let's keep it real and not also forget that this ridiculous charade is all part of the plan that helps the police perpetuate the trouble at football myth and justify their presence, behaviour and overtime
while i have to agree that there are indeed troublemaking idiots who go to football, the sad thing is that imo most of them are wearing uniforms with numbers on the shoulders
right then, back to the darkness i go
all the best

As long as people like Sooty the Thief continue to shout this message from the rooftops, people like Bobby Samosa will continue to be treated in the way that he complains about.

always 2 sides of a story
What an utter load of shit, if you really think that the culture of fighting is as important as what goes on the pitch then I really do wish a life time ban on the likes of you.
That is the complete OPPOSITE of what football is really all about. What a sad man you really are.

Come on!
Can't wait to see the reaction on here should Palace come down next season...

Apparently so! Is there a thread somewhere? Must be fantastic.
