Terrible to hear. I'm sure PB will be all over this to ensure the idiot is never seen at any Brighton game in the future.

Most thugs are just bullies. Think it is time that more fans take responsibility and with cameras take pictures of these thugs and get them banned. Much nicer when you can walk to the ground and have a chat with an opposition fan rather than dodging punches. Unfortunately, there are still plenty morons about.

Happened at a Friday night game at the Amex against Leeds the season you won promotion. Just as we got on a train at Brighton station for the Amex, a group of Brighton fans punched a young Leeds fan about 15 years old in the face. Other Leeds fans went to his aid but there was no more punches thrown. The Brighton guy who hit him was big - with a full beard and wore a full-length black leather coat. During the game one of our groups other half went to the ladies and didn't return so after the game we searched everywhere for her and waited for someone to check the ladies so we were one of the last out of the ground. As we walked past the away end to walk towards the station, we recognised the same big fella with his small gang picking off Leeds fans on their own. We went to the stewards who stepped in but a few minutes later the same group were at it again.

I walked past the enraged, red-faced, spitting mass of (mostly middle aged) Leeds fans in the Amex coach park a few years ago after another defeat for your lot……..one tried to break through the police line that was separating them from the BHA fans - women, kids, pensioners included - exiting the ground, and was told to back off or face arrest. That prompted him to take a few paces back and take a run-up to try to break through to get at anyone within range.

Hope they get the culprits.....horrible to hear, even worse when our fans are acting in a brainless way.


Sorry I will edit that its bad violence caused by any fan

The total dickhead cowards who did this, are not Brighton fans.
If they were they would never do something that would tarnish the reputation of our community club, nor potentially bring into disrepute or cause fines.
Besides which no normal human with 1 ounce of intelligence or empathy punches an innocent fellow human for no reason other than the shirt he's wearing.

I hope this results in a banning order and very public outing of the knuckledragger/s who in no way represent the eclectic mix of real and human Albion fans.

This is some no true scotsman rubbish.

We have some idiotic fans just like any club and no doubt they will bleed Albion just as you do.

Yes exactly. On the day they did it they were paying customers.

Hope the idiots are banned for life.

( On the subject of Leeds fans, having travelled back to London with them a few times they are up there with the worst. Not quite as bad as Everton though )

I agree with you.

Yeah they say they’re Albion to the core, but they have a pathetic interest on match-days in hoping to coward’s punch strangers. The type that obsess with away fans, invaders coming to their manor.

Pathetic.

Yep, unfortunately football still has its share of morons:-

I hope they catch the criminals involved and they are given lifetime bans. No place for thuggery at the Albion.

town full of eejits
after the Arsenal home game the season before last , the one we won 2-1 , we were walking back up to get picked up at the bus stop by our "saturday driver" we had walked up a rather slippery , muddy hill with some low treated pine log traffic barriers at the top there were 4 of us and behind us was a group of about 5 or 6 rather large blokes , no colours on display ......as we got to the top of the hill and stepped over the barrier one of them shouted out for directions to the station , it was then we realised they were the "away" lot and as they got closer you could see that a couple of them were either full of lager or sniff or probably both , the local lads i was with were keen to be at the pick up spot at the right time so the driver wouldn't have to wait , i stopped briefly and said the station was back the other way , the lead guy got to the top of the slope and then took a massive swing at me , which i ducked , he slipped over and slid back down the hill taking 2 of his mates with him ....comedy gold , i just stood there taking the piss for about 20 seconds then decided to catch up with the others who had seen the commotion but not the lead up .........by the time we got back to Worthing i had taken of 5 Arsenal thugs single handedly and was the toast of the town that evening ......funny how things can get twisted in translation.

Sad to see.

What goes through the solitary braincell of someone who decides to punch an innocent Watford fan?

I hope it’s reported and cctv is examined to identify the coward.

Cocaine?

Pretty shitty hitting scarfers, very cowardly, one thing I would say is there were many “lads” down in town yesterday from all over the country, the perp might not have been an Albion fan, the incident happed in West Street btw not the Amex!

That puts a completely different light on it. Might not even been about football.

Absolutely right.

Did anything happen to thug who pushed Uwe Hunenmeier when his momentum carried him into the Leeds stand?

So in fairness it also shouldn’t be described as “Trouble at the game” either, I saw a group of lads in West Ham shirts in West Street in the morning on a stag do as one example of other fans being in town, well I assume a stag do as one had an L plate on his front and back.

So to sum up, there was no trouble at the game. The incident was in the city. All taken from 1 Watford fans tweet.
