Love the suggestion, was amazing on Saturday when the East started (apart from the goal).
yeah agree. I was soo busy singing and watching the crowds i missed their first goal!

Pure Gold Moshe. Lets do it on Saturday! "East East Stand 3 way chant, East Stand 3 way chant"
We're the East Stand, We're the East Stand, We're the East Stand Brighton Boys
We're the NORTH STAND, We're the NORTH STAND, We're the NORTH STAND Brighton Boys
WERE THE WEST STAND, WERE THE WEST STAND, WERE THE WEST STAND BRIGHTON BOYS
We're the East Stand, We're the East Stand, We're the East Stand Brighton Boys
etc, etc, etc
Eventually, WE ARE BRIGHTON, SUPER BRIGHTON, WE ARE BRIGHTON FROM THE SOUTH
My 4 year old sons favorite song at the moment is sussex by the sea He still loves peppa pig as wellWhen I came in from work tonight my 4 year old son greeted me with an excited chorus of "We're the West, We're the West, We're the West Stand Brighton Voice!" (10 out of 10 for effort..)... we then had to take it in turns standing on different sofas and having a sing-off between "the West", "the North" and "the East"...
he is so up for this I'm happy for it to be done as many times as anyone likes on Saturday
(he also told me tonight that his nursery school teacher said there should be 4 parts to the song - so I had to explain to him about the away fans being in the South Stand... sorry for the post but any Dads/Mums will understand my delight in all this - it only seems 5 minutes ago that Peppa Pig was the extent of his interest in anything beyond milk and biscuits...)
cheers GM and well done with your effort on this - when we get this working i'm fairly sure it will be both unique to The AMEX (until copied...!) and very, very good...
the two potential teething problems will be 1) that the East are slow on the uptake and an "Aaaal-bi-on" chant comes back, and/or 2) that the North reply to the West and mess the 3 way bit up before it gets going... but no reason why these shouldn't get ironed out with a little practice
As long as the 3 way chant bit is clear I for 1 will be responding with we're the east stand.
Not sure this has been asked but how many circuits we doing before the 'we are brighton'.
If we could get the transition right this is gonna be awesome
Always thought this would be the problem getting the east stand to sing. It is just normally sung between the west and northI'm in the East Stand and have been trying to get the crowd singing this, even to the extent against Blackpool, I was standing up on my own singing "I'm the East Stand" as nobody else joined in! Anyway, Blackpool and Sunderland games many more joined in at times, so starting to get good.
I'm well up for "we are Brighton" at the end but I think it will be very difficult to coordinate. I think we have to stick to a number, say 3 x " we are the X stand" each and then everyone "we are Brighton". Adding this at the end would be absolutely awesome.

The East have been slow to get going but I'm sure this could really fly... the Family Stand will definitely love it.Always thought this would be the problem getting the east stand to sing. It is just normally sung between the west and north
As everyone likes to SING "we're the xxxxx Stand, we're the xxxxx Stand, we're the xxxxx Stand Brighton Boys" It needs to be done at least 5 times, as it each time more people join in, after 5 times it starts to reduce. Therefore lets agree all 3 stands do it 5 times
While I agree more people join in the longer it goes on.
Bearing in mind it's 3 stands singing, I think 15 verses might be a little too much.
Would 3 times each not be enough, before the ' we are Brighton'
Dont shoot me. Just my opinion
Too much organising going on (5 rounds, 3 rounds...) I feel.
Chill, let it happen naturally, when the 3 way Chant dies, come in with 'We are Brighton'
