Having indoctrinated my own children into a love of the Albion. Phase 2 begins tomorrow with my son's best friend joining us for a trip to mecca...can't be many born outside Brighton and Sussex, without a Albion supporting parent, that support the stripes?

Met a guy at Millwall away this season, who had come along with his son all the way from Holland.

He'd never lived in Brighton but started supporting us due to Queen (who he was a massive fan of) releasing the song Brighton Rock.

Possibly the most obscure reason for someone supporting us.

I have a mate from Bangladesh who arrived in 1983 he and his brother flipped a coin to decide which of the FA cup finalists to support...he has followed Brighton ever since, has never been anywhere near the town and has no other connection to us.
