I weasn't "analysing" anything either, merely pointing out that to understand the Brighton/Palarse rivallry, or any other great footballing derbies in this country, Liverpool/Everton, Rangers/Celtic etc. etc. it helps to be here and to actually live the intensity of it. Nothing more than that.
Well as has been said, it depends how we classify the word legend really l guess.
I would also say, that maybe football, and society in general, has changed a great deal in the last quarter of a century, many people had things called morals back then.
