Little things that you might do at the amex.
I never stand and clap the team out unless they have won the previous game
I always walk the length of the esu and look over each end from the disabled area
My first comments after kick off is always"blue to blue"
What silly little things are you in the habit of doing
Tablets not working then?

Yeah, of course. That is my PRE match routine. POST match involves much of the same, and when I say much I mean the drinking part.

Stupid IDIOT
I always GOOSE [MENTION=38]Beach Hut[/MENTION] in the train QUEUE afterwards if we WIN
It is strange, but only in that I can never have a pint before the match and not have a have a half time wee. You must have some sort of megabladder!

When I enter the NS through the turnstile at the western end, I always use the turnstile at the left end of the bank of four. I once used a different one and we lost.
When I go through the vomitory, entrance F, to get to my seat, I always turn right to go up the stairs. I once turned left and we lost (not the same game as above, either).
Maple syrup, must be on the table before the waffles, before the waffles .............

When you are a proper fan you put up with the bad bits unlike the happy go lucky band wagoners!
Are you there tomorrow night [MENTION=12196]tinycowboy[/MENTION] ?
Could do with some of that Indiepop Three-goal magic.

Your support is not that great
Turn to my son and say "superb from Jimmy Case!" during the goal clips on the big screen.
Stand up throughout half time fruitlessly pressing "Retry" on my Sky Sports iPhone app.
Gaze around the stadium and remind myself that I never, ever believed Brighton would play in a ground like this, and fill it. Still haven't got used to that feeling.

No concrete habits for us. Normally use the ESL entrance at the North end, as that's where we sit, but we'll use the closer South one if its cold or raining. Buy some hot chocolate for the kids. Sometimes a pie, but rarely. Must get one tomorrow. SuPERB from Jimmy Case! Stoooooooorerrrrrr. Its the stuff of dreams!
Always sing GOSBTS. Never clap along. Start clapping when Greer gets past the end of the opposition line, and runs directly towards us.
Tut loudly, when we need to stand up for the same annoying woman who ALWAYS arrives four minutes into the match.
Never miss a MINUTE of action, hwoever much I need a pee. Sometimes a serious injury for an opposition player, is handy, and much appreciated in that respect! I'm paranoid, that if I leave my seat for 30 seconds, I will miss the BEST goal, ever seen. EVER. And that it is guaranteed to be the only goal of the game. In fact, on that, a few around us, got back to their seats 5 minutes into the second half on Monday, missing BOTH goals in the game.
Unless Reading slip up, tomoorow will be our very last match in the seats we've had since the stadium opened (getting priced out of the FS), so new neighbours and new rituals to discover next year, in the SWC.

Oh dear. Are the club still refusing to grant you superfan status so that all the JCLs will then know how much better a fan you are than them? Things were so much easier when we had 8,000 fans and we all knew each other by sight. Nowadays, you're just one fan amongst 30,000 and the majority just do not give you the attention you crave. What a cross to bear.

Always go into Dick's bar and, with my pint in hand, read the second to last verse of Attila's superb "Goldstone Ghosts".
As I come to the end of that verse, I raise my glass and say along with the poem, "We were there".
Still can't believe we have the Amex after that interminable wait.
