Brighton factually.....
I wish I did 'know it'. But nevertheless.

Off topic and Chelsea, I do recall at a game about 93 or something away at somewhere dismal like port vale, some bloke declaring this was enough and he was "sick of this shit" and he was going to watch Chelsea from then on in...

At the time I was disgusted, but could also understand the frustration...


I wonder if that bloke has been brought back into the fold ?

We do also seem to have a slight connection with Chelsea with the older boys why is that ?

I had no idea of any connection. Perhaps they just took us under their wing, although we were a better side than them from 79-83. Perhaps we're just a lovely club!

I bunked off school to go to Forest away when we lost 2-1 in the league cup, that was a fun day!
