[Albion] Make History

[attila]

MAKE HISTORY

From ‘home’ matches in Gillingham
To nights at Standard or Marseille
Or even Jeunesse Hautcharage
Or Ventspils in a force nine gale
From Withdean to Europa League
From Dave the Donkey to Mitoma
And Ali Mac and Caicedo
From Archer Out to AS Roma

It’s not the same as Hereford
Nothing will ever match that day
But three more points mean party time
So let’s make history today.
The greatest season of our lives.
The greatest team we’ve ever had.
For Roy and Sarah, Paul and Ed:
For those who aren’t here. For my dad.

Brilliant! As always.

Brilliant! As always.

Agree. Except for attempting to rhyme Marseille and gale.

'Teams like Brighton' is on life support.

Has someone died

 

[attila]

Yes. My dad died when I was ten, he gave me my love of football and I think of him at times like this, unsurprisingly. And quite a lot of the people who spent years of their lives in our battle to save BHAFC have died too, which is mentioned here. Of course, you know all this,because you’re a dedicated fan.

Strange comment. Want to take it back?

That's it... you and the occasion have got me close to blubbing now! I am thinking of all the friends and family, my father (who played for Brighton boys) and the anonymous hundreds and thousands of fans who have gone before and who would love to be at that match today!
