If you follow the WHC you'll note that I'm not even one of the fanboyus. I haven't even voted for it in any round. I made the link because as a Brighton fan, I empathised with the injustice the Badger has faced. To cheat the Badger out of victory is to uphold cheating, and to do that is to condone Barton and Mike Dean.

WHC X: The FINAL - Grasshopper Mouse Vs Honey Badger
- Thread starter Garry Nelson's Left Foot
- Start date
But voting for the clearly (pound for pound) HARDER Grasshopper mouse over the badger is nothing of the kind.
Ridiculous suggestion, frankly.
Oh ye of little comprehension. Let thine eyes see the truth for verily it stares you in the face. And the soothsayer spoke thus:
Now, More Than Ever, WE MUST SHOW OUR SUPPORT
18 Thumbs Up!
Well now we come to crunch and all our hopes and dreams loom large on the horizon. I read these pages and I sense fear and trepidation, nerves and neuroticism. We've been here before and oh my, have we been here before. And why shouldn't we cower? Every time we reach for glory, it slips coldly through our fingers and into the abyss.
So who else can possibly empathise with Us? In who can we find strength? Why, The People's Champion of course. He too has fought and failed, ever valiant, ever defiant and returned stronger. Not since the days of Jesus Christ, the LORD, have a band of followers so loyal been so disparaged. Plastic, fairweather, bandwagon-jumpers they cried, and yet here we all still stand. When Dale Stephens took the long walk on that fateful day, the Honey Badger cried our tears, knowing all too well corruption's remorseless sting, and he too swore, like Us, NEVER AGAIN.
No more crying into the bouquet. It is clear this year that a course has been set; Brighton will finally take its place in the Premier League, and the Badger will at last sit upon the WHC throne. If one thing is evident it is that the two are intrinsically linked; Brighton is the Badger and the Badger is Brighton. They are Yin and Yang, Kayal and Hemed and either both will triumph... or neither will.
We must do our bit and roar the boys on to glory, and roar on the Badger. A vote for any other name is a vote for what you sense would be a terminal downfall, a vote to give up upon and abandon our aspirations. Ask yourself, is glorious failure really what you desire? It is far easier to curse your luck than to curate it, and yet the boys and Badger plunder on. Naysayers know this- above all else, both DESERVE their moment in the sun. The Albion have risen from the ashes, and the Honey Badger is a F*CKMENTALIST OF THE HIGHEST ORDER. HONEY BADGER DON'T CARE.
But you should. Are you man, or Grasshopper Mouse? When that poll opens, remember one thing:
VOTE BADGER, VOTE BRIGHTON
There are many naysayers here but be strong my friends for they are the rodent devil's disciples and to follow their way will surely give pain, and anguish, and wailing, and gnashing of teeth, and famine, and drought, and pestilence and ultimately .............. another season in the Championship.

Another pathetic, straw-clutching, emotional black-mailer.
Like the rest clearly has no faith in the badger's actual worth, so need to resort to this bullshit.
Feeble.
How is [MENTION=10008]Giraffe's Son[/MENTION] doing? Haven't seen him post in a while

But we (Brighton) weren't cheated in the play-offs against you know who & Derby, so again. Intertwined? BULLSHITE!!!!.
Agreed. Badger voters 'Sun Always Shines on Sun Bear' and 'Ratelmania' are two of my favourite regular posters on here.
Interesting you say 'utterly pathetic behaviour', when the first person I heard raise the idea that the badger and the Albion's fortunes were linked was... YOU!
Now you discount it as a pathetic straw. Shameful.

Do you understand what Pound for Pound means? Just because it is smaller, doesn't mean it is pound for pound harder?
FakeNews
The mouse isn't harder pound for pound. In the videos I've seen of it taking on spiders and scorpions the mouse is twice the size of it's prey. The Honey Badger is much smaller than the viscous animals it takes on.

Literally the ONLY things the badger has ever had going for it is that it stands its ground despite being little. Its an argument that's rendered moot in a battle with another small(er) creature. A small(er) creature that defends a territory the size of Arkansas.

I have been made to jump by finding a mouse unexpectedly when i bought my first house many years ago.
As i have never been made to jump by a Honey Badger it has to be team Mouse.

How about the other rodents it kills that are much bigger? Oh, and the centipedes and snakes. The poisonous ones.
And just because scorpions and tarantulas are smaller, it doesn't make the mouse less hard for taking it on, when those it attacks are vicious, aggressive and deadly in themselves - and most importantly, normally make a meal out of other similar sized animals like the GM
Satan is among us.
Yes we were. Palace covered the changing room in shit and blamed it on us to motivate their players. That's against the rules of fair play. We were unlucky in the first leg against Derby, and suffered injuries to make us miss out in the second leg - the footballing gods are well aware of the WHC competition, and as long as our fans are happy to cheat in something as important as this, the football gods will punish us.
Go look at the names of the voters so far. All cheating thus far is pro-badger.
Its a typical badgerista / Team Trump trait. Claim cheating against you, to deflect from your own.
