Tom Gorringe has said "watch this space" with regards to the GOSBTS clip the club posted on Instagram. Full version on its way then

You say that but it was amazing how quickly the 'You're shitting yourself' chant was picked up around the ground on Monday.
Could be interesting next season with another "Albion" in the division. Will the "Albiooooooon" chant go all around the ground?
Well, I've always thought we should alter the chant to "Brighton n ove, Albion" rather than repeating "Albion" ... in the same way WBA sing " West Bromwich, Albion"

I just watched the first half back for the first time. The sound is incredible, you can't really tell what it will sound like on TV but you can barely hear the commentary. When the Amex rocks, it rocks.
This. Can only speak for the Emirates and the Bridge where I have watched a few games but they are no better than the Amex on a normal day, and decidedly worse at times.
Glad it's just not me!

Standing in the North.
Hopefully everyone gets the idea after Monday.

Was just speaking to a sw fan other than saying that first half was relentless and how were we not 4 up... He said the atmosphere was best 'away' game they had been too. The roof was raised Every corner, throw in and chance.
Hopefully everyone now has a taste for it now and feels more comfortable being vocal (and knows some words). We do have some 'new' fans (have to with 30k of seats) and I think there is a nervousness from some in case they make a mistake etc.
Good to see the north stand singing as one unit too, rather than competing against itself as happens sometimes.
More standing does help too (energises people).
I think the the "Na Na Na....we all follow Bha' will continue to grow and be a 'thing' (and dare I say would work well if there is a drum!)
Brighton has some great live bands and Djs, maybe get them in the ground a few time before ko? (Might interfere with warm ups)
That noise won't happen every game, but now we have a benchmark of what we can do it will be easier to put the call out
"let's make it like Sheffield Wednesday" (anyone suggest a #)?

Seriously? I was in the WSU south end and it was loud as anything coming up from the WSL and the North.
I'm WSU between the halfway line and the North penalty box in the very front row. I genuinely have no recollection of this song other than reading about it on here.
Yes, seriously. Never heard it. WSU G/H block.

This is indicative of how LOUD the combined atmosphere is at The Amex. Noise that is really loud in one part of the ground is drowned out by something equally loud going on elsewhere - the song in question was never audible in WSU North end.
When in unison the effect is incredible. We must not underestimate what we have got. Was it the best atmosphere EVER on Sky TV for a domestic club game....?!
I think we are just realising that the present Uncle Tony got us for Christmas a few years ago is even better than we thought...

A different kind of pasty
Same block, about 5 rows from the back, and I didn't hear it either
Perhaps it is because we were all too busy belting out the right words to Sussex by the sea?

Didn't pick this up In WSL (N end) either.
