Apparently we have been offered the option of some trees to put in each corner of the ground as some people miss the vista of Withdean. These will be named by poplar vote.
Away end is ahead with weeping willow, although geographically it's the beech end.
Poll to follow.
Marching on together to the end of time, life and the universe and touch the fencing you march no more. Best away support this year and now possibly this.
Can't you think of a better double act since the Krankies
Best day of my life in sport was the journey up in 1983 on a wave of blue and white at every station. Ask a Blue and they would take the Carling Cup memory over relegation, as we had to take (minus cup). This site is lit up with hope and expectation and even the Toon are posting with support...
Strange away today. Dr Browns and a brilliant warm up and then .......
Worst away singing for a long time. Sitting upper and as usual above us gave it there all. Below us... why why why ...... to come so far yet give so little......
Brighton Hove Albion away away away.
Apart from great moments in our past, Robbie Reinelt, Stuart Storer (still love the commentary on you tube) and Will Buckley first game at the Amex, do great players need a defining moment to be called a 'great'? Maradona 1986, Pele missing an open goal 1970 etc, Bobby Moore's tackle same year...
To the tune of Glory Glory..... Which is a borrowed song from everybody.
When I left the Goldstone it was 1994
My last time down the Shoreham Road
It broke me to my core
But we all sang the praises of the lads we love so much
As we were walking home.
No Chorus
Little did we know it then but...
Looked at the best (in my opinion) four 'owned' songs in English football. West Ham, Leeds, Birmingham and Liverpool. All good and heard Leeds only too close for most of the game recently. But as we know, we have a song ourselves, usually only starts when it finishes. Ready for hell on this but...

We have flags, we have the best support, we can stand and we can f..king sing for 90 minutes.
Keep watching till the end and thank god for the fans at the end.
Sums up what we are all about. New to this site but please remember and realise why...
On the underground and so as not to scare passengers, potential disaster is hidden by pretty innocuous tannoy announcements from and to the LUL staff. But just watched a doc about the sinking of the ferry Estonia and found that they used a coded message to the crew to abandon ship and save...
To lighten pretty dark conversation in recent weeks on the chat, I give you old school humour. After January we can make our own humour again. Be good if we could keep this going until then.
My wife and I were fighting like hammer and tongs.
She won, she had the hammer.
My wife phoned me...
Does anybody know why we could smoke behind the stands on Saturday? A luxury the police and stewards seemed happy to accommodate. Usually its through the turnstiles and that's it.
Just a thought. You get 10 loyalty points as an away supporter no matter where you go. How can you have a blanket amount if you travel to Portsmouth, home in time for beers at 8, Bristol City at 10 and Middlesboro, sorry luv the bars closed?
Have a friend coming down for the Leeds game in the aways. Hopefully getting tickets on general release on Monday for the lower west. If not, does Dicks Bar stay open during the game?
Two brave heroes went to Hartlepool away last season. On arrival our apparent rendition of smalltown boy and an erasure medley alerted our first friendly local that we're obviously from Brighton. I'm not sure how many pubs they have there but it took a long time for said local (at 11.30 and just...
I was in the North Stand for Spurs and good effort from everybody and please don't worry about lyrics or who sang it first. We're the left we're the right...more than good enough and boys at the back kept it going...
When it came to we're the north stand..........again good effort...a gentle...
