That was the only highlight of my evening Das
The highlight of my evening was making kick off after escaping from the coach and walking a mile.

Skint years RIP
It was so bloody cold that night. Brrrrrr
Last night was great turn out. Just a shame we don't have much to get excited about when watching team.
Amex suffered from turgid football last year and this year a real lack of belief in what is happening on the pitch.

The concourse in WSU does get very hot on a sunny afternoon, though

amazing? not sure about amazing. it was decent but that's because there were 4000 of us at a cup game in London. I've been in better following BHA and some of the 'small town in Arsenal' bollocks was utterly cringe. not a great range of songs either and no edge whatsoever.
I'd say amazing is closer to 0-0 away at Burnley on a freezing Tuesday night last season where around 350 of us sang constantly throughout the entire dreadful match with a host of different new and old songs.

So some 'planks' were singing a shite but relatively non offensive song about our local rivals (I've supported this club since 77 so don't tell me they're not) and were told to shut up, Why was that? Couldn't you hear what the players were saying?

The term 'hero' is often overused, however.......
I left home at 2PM yesterday and got home at 1.15 this morning, I honestly didn't think the coach would take so long.

As much as I admire our match choir, some of these geographically related chants require a 'could do better' marking.

The 'dirty Northern barstewards' to the Reading faithful was a touch iffy too.

They are totally pony, small town in Villa was my personal 'favourite'. However it'll be a cold day in hell before I "cringe" at what others sing (the Munich air crash song that a couple of ale cans started singing at Lords when Sussex played Lancs was a bit FFS, but hey, I wasn't singing it)
Just going back to the "small town" song, its usually attention seeking as it gets a response, pissed up we sing it at Peacehaven away matches, I.e Burgess Hill, Lewes, Newhaven....and the near bit is always 'Brighton', it always gets a "wot are yoo den?" response.
everything's funny when you're pissed!

I don't travel to many away matches, but was at the Birmingham City game you refer to. It was very cringeworthy. I'm guessing that the next match I attend, Norwich City, will see Ipswich references.
Twas a shame to hear about the Munich chants. Cricket used to be just as fun as football, without all the aggressive goading. I'm guessing that crass references aimed at Manchester United supporters would affect more of those from Sussex than Lancashire....
As regards non-league football, my local team Whitehawk, is ripe for such chants. Although the proposed change to Brighton & Hove City may pollute that. Doubtless a teenage wag would regard them as a 'small town in Albion'.....

Don't get me wrong it wasn't a massive deal, they sung a couple of lines, a couple of Mancs gave them a bit of verbal as well as some Sussex telling them to shut up and that was the end of it, they made themselves look stupid no one else

That might be correct if the year was 485AD
