[Albion] The most unpleasant Brighton & Hove Albion fan

[Ratso2005]

This morning, looking for #BHAFC news on 'X' (yeah, I know) I stumbled across the most unpleasant fan account I've seen.

I don't really want to name it here. He currently only has 29 followers (up from 27 earlier, and that is 29 more than he deserves), but I realise that if I don't it makes this post fairly useless, so it's a quandary.

Claims to be a supporter since the late 80s, but is now expat (and also hates the UK).

He despises (in no particular order): Almost every other Brighton fan, Lewis Dunk, Kaoru Mitoma, Bart Verbruggen, Joel Veltman, Facu Buonanotte Pascal Gross, Tariq Lamptey, Julio Enciso (hard to tell if he likes any of the players tbh), Paul Barber, Tony Bloom, the club's PR admin...

Is this account known here?
Is he really an Albion supporter?

I found it genuinely rather depressing, and feel tainted after reading it.

But I had that 'couldn't look away' social media car crash thing going on, which I usually don't find too hard to extricate myself from. As a content/trigger warning, he is also happy to use ableist and other slurs.

I know there can be some negativity on here, but this is next next level.
Blech.

X link ?

Why would you want to boost them? Better to leave it alone.

Probably this

Now, just ignore the palace troll

X link ?

As I said, I don't really want to give him that, but I also realise that my post is lacking without it. I'm not sure. I was hoping that people would know who I was talking about, but also I'm hoping that no-one knows about him.

Completely worthless thread in that case

Palace.

Could be! But seems very full time with it. A lot of effort going in just to be a pointless arsehole to less than 30 people.

I know, it's Twitter.

Well, you said it.

 

[fly high]

Can't you just copy & paste his text?

 

[Ratso2005]

See above. I initially put it in, then took it out.

I agree the thread is a bit worthless. I guess I just needed to vent after reading so much nasty stuff about Bloom and the lads.

I could, but there's reams of it!

Is it that fake hooligan account? (profile pic of a bloke wearing a gillet and no other top on a train)

I believe it’s a parody account if it is

No, nothing like that.

Ok, the name to search is 'don hurzeler'.

WUM with 29 followers

You're probably right about the WUM bit, but there were a few bits in there that made me question it, such as praise for the manager.

 

[Greg Bobkin]

Ah well, whatever. Probably not a real person anyway, let alone a fan, but who really gives a shit even if they are?

Block/Mute and you'll never see their pixels again.

Oh yes, already done.
