If the news broke that Tony Bloom and Chris Hughton were having an affair.

bleed blue and white- so nothing

 

[OzMike]

Nothing I'm afraid.

Hehe, I would pretend to be for that and be a closet supporter.

 

[goldstone]

Foreign owners, particularly arab or oriental.

 

[Perfidious Albion]

I voted ' foreign takeover' . I deplore the foreign money and becoming a rich man or corporation's tax write off. .... However, would it be permanent? I doubt really. I guess The Albion are in my blood.

 

[maglers]

Neil Warnock being appointed manager.

 

[Jim Van Winkle]

Nothing I'm afraid.

Not even the unveiling of Ron Atkinson as manager with Garth Crooks, Joey Barton and Andy Townsend as first team coaches.

 

[Simontheseagull]

Becoming a club like Arsenal.

Lots of empty seats at The Library today against Stoke. Fans can't be bothered to turn up. Team can't be bothered to turn up. Am looking for something else to watch on TV.

Queen goal music?

 

[Triggaaar]

No poll option for 'nothing'

 

[Shooting Star]

I'm not ashamed to say that there are certain scenarios which would cause me to consciously drift from the Albion. I've supported Brighton all my life, been up and down the country, had season tickets at Withdean etc. Albion is in my blood and is who I am. However, if we were to become a perennial mid-table Premier League team, with foreign owners who didn't have any connection to the club and were sponsored by a Chinese betting firm, my love would start to dim. Ironically, what will keep my passion burning is a few relegations, a few hardships, a few joys, a few sorrows. Just like the old days.

Queen goal music?

Could come close to tipping the balance.

Would be a bit miffed, but won't change.

 

[seagull_special]

The only thing that would make me turn my back would be Pardew as manager. In all seriousness if our fans had turned their back on us in our darkest hour we would be f*****d. Once a supporter always a supporter.

 

[Spicy]

Til death us do part

Exactly. Ridiculous poll as there no option for this or for "I am blue and white striped all the way through like Brighton rock".

 

[HastingsSeagull]

Not much.

I expect if they totally dropped out the 4 pro leagues (maybe 6) I'd likely support Hastings instead and keep merely 'following' Brighton (as it's sort of the opposite right now).

But that's about it really.
