On fire
... the amount of time we have spent in the relegation zone.
I didn't enjoy any of it.

I understand you supported Birmingham City as a kid
Hopefully, that Kazenga moment this afternoon, when we climbed out of the bottom three, is the start of something good.
As a yoof.
As a kid, I followed Newport County.
My first game at the Goldstone was in 1972, so I've known a full spectrum of Albion highs and lows. And plenty of moments when we've turned a corner.

How about focus on the positive. There will be 28000/30000 for Fulham at the next home game and a fan who spent 200 Million on a ground to replace the Goldstone and a training ground.. Fabulous support by both Chairman and fans.
Im old fashioned like that, you dont choose a football club or ever choose one, you are born into it. You can watch other teams but a football club is like nationality, born with it. The Albion is not really about the bunch of jokers on the pitch, its much much more.
In principle, I agree. But what can you do when your parents move a hundred miles away from where you started following your club? Live matches are what nurtures true support and a move to Birmingham had the inevitable consequence of Saturday afternoons at Somerton Park being replaced by Saturday afternoons at St Andrew's. It was five years after I first moved to Brighton that I started going to the Goldstone and that was probably motivated as much by the fact that, by 1972, with my family no longer living in Birmingham, I no longer had a reason to be visiting Brum regularly. I wasn't going to give up live football, though.Im old fashioned like that, you dont choose a football club or ever choose one, you are born into it.

Yes, the advantages of supporting the Albion are there for all to see. To be fair to the post, I think it was not meant to be negative at all.

I understand you supported Birmingham City as a kid and so I haven't worked out why you are that worried? For those of us born into the Albion then we understand it comes with the territory. Brighton have always been a lower league club with a very large support that could rival most top flight sides if we ever got there. The problem at the Albion always has been the team. But Tony Bloom is doing his best so how about people who have not spent 200Million on the Albion give it a rest?
Me too. And County 'til I die.... I am Brighton 'till I die . .
