I started following the Albion when I met my partner (so no not single) this was during the withdean years with Falmer in sight. So I wasn't around for the Goldstone but I have done my homework on the club and I am well aware of the legend that is Peter Ward.
not sure what a JCL is though ?
A Gal is another name for a girl as in (me and my Gal ) song and the phrase 'what a Gal' I added the extra L to have the same letters as seagull .... I thought it was quite good and never thought it would need such an explanation
Just interested in what other people think the criteria is to be an Albion fan .... Do you need to be born and bred in Brighton and Hove or is it enough that you love Brighton visit as often as you can and support the club at matches where possible buy merchandise and follow the live commentry...
I have stood on a balcony at The Grand early morning on match day with a cup of tea, the seagulls in full morning song, Palace Pier on my left West Pier on my right in my opinion that view takes some beating.
there is a report in The Argus about rebuilding the West Pier, I am in 2 minds about this as I think it looks beautiful as it is and I think I would miss it.
