Mods: have we run OP past the Not Nick Rhodes scanner? Username seems a tad KNOWING. And the earlydoors NEEDINESS seems somewhat familiar.

Hi everyone,

I just started living in Brighton since March 2016 and I’m following Brighton & Hove Albion since then. I love football but I don’t particularly support any football club since I moved to UK(which is 2008, I was living in Turkey before and I was a Galatasaray fan when I was a kid), and I found myself as a Brighton fan since I moved to this city

Anyway I couldn’t watch any games live in UK yet, and I thought Brighton games would be a perfect start. Then I bought a ticket to FA Cup 3rd Round game against Milton Keynes Dons. None of my friends are interested in football(I know, weird!!) so I’m going alone. After I purchased the ticket, a question came into my mind; Is it okay to go to a game alone? Actually this is a stupid, I never thought about this when I was buying the ticket, but then I read a guy in Celtic forum asking this question and people were advising him not to go alone, that it would be weird. Maybe Celtic games are different, more heated atmospheres etc. I don’t know.

Anyway this has been already a very long post. What do you think? Will I be the weird guy, or will Brighton people welcome me with their arms open?

1) Firstly, ignore some of the silly reponses you get to this. It's only because we get some rival fans trying to wind us up. You are most welcome.
2) There is nothing strange about going alone. Nothing to worry about. You may get to know some supporters over time.
3) This Saturday won't quite have the same atmosphere as other games but will be a good introduction.

Does it matter it that person is female?

Left, how many times do you need to be told it's the person your left. You only grab the nipples of the person on your right when the opposition have a goal disallowed.

I thought it was the left.

Thank you -- I am here all week.

I thought that the full reach-around to the left breast was reserved for last minute OGs from the opposition; normal practice is surely right hand tweaks right nipple, or for League Cup a faint brushing of the right nipple with the left hand?
