We copied Millwall fans.

*Millwall fans consider them from Surrey, therefore all posh and called Nigel.

Why, oh why, oh why can't you JCL's just have your own forum - haven't you heard this one is for proper fans.

I didn't know were the term Nigel came from, and by the look of the answers on here, nobody else does either.

My first Brighton Match was in December 1967. Does that make me a JCL. If we stuck with people who were everpresent during the Gillingham years, there wouldn't be much point in having the AMEX, would there.

It's because this site bans the words F*****gSarfLundinC***s. Nigel's is far more measured. W*****s! TNBA TTF

 

[Seagull on the wing]

Called Nigels cos' we is polite......aren't we SE20 ?.....bless.

I love how they also call us "weeds", let's face it their not any 'harder' than brighton fans, but because some of them wear all black and scarves over their mouths they think that they're some kind of firm

It's short for 'seaweed', a play on 'seagulls'.

So it's a pathetic attempt at an insult, top work from croydons finest

I'd say it's marginally better than "the scum" wouldn't you ?

TBH they can call us what they like, but I've now been told by 3 palace fans that us calling them pikeys makes no sense and is actually racist and at least scum makes sense

The scum is a term used by Brighton fans about Palace fans

I know and as far as I'm concerned every palace fan I've spoken to apart from a couple live up to that name, they call us scum as well as several vile expletives I've seen aimed at dads with their kids such as "you f*****g homo c*** i hope you die of aids"

Calling them pikeys isn't racist as we're not making reference to travellers but chavs.

Well they do have a large number of fans who look like trainspotters

I know i tried explaining that to them but apparently it is an insult to the Irish, even though I've never seen a brighton fan call a palace fan an irish pikey,

Talking of train spotters, what's happened to Major ?
