It’s bloody annoying when people call it Chi and when they use LA for Littlehampton.

Just use the real names FFS.

Is this all you have to worry about? :smile:

I think it's good TBH, especially LA, I think that's funny, many people call Newhaven " shit hole " :down:

Not sure I agree. Have lived in Chi all my life and the dividing lines used to be LA/Brighton, Bognor/Pompey. Bognor def Brighton now and Chi fairly split. As you say, AITC very strong in the area and consequently most kids in the Chi area are Brighton.

Two caveats: still a lot of London and Man U ‘fans’ around and perhaps the demise of Pompey and renaissance of BHA fans locally at least partly a reflection of the relative success/collapse of the two clubs rather than a permanent change?

Good comment.

I used to say that when I was at uni in Pompey.

:sick:

I hope that’s all you caught whilst mingling with the great unwashed.

2nd half and still 0-0. Chichester playing OK but will be fatigued towards the end.

A very brave effort for an hour there by Chichester I thought. A Sussex derby in the league at The Pilot Field away to Hastings United next up for Chichester City. An Albion free Saturday means I'll be there to applaud our Sussex FA Cup heroes. :clap2:

Their Ladies team also lost today in the Women's FA Cup 6-0 to Ipswich Town.

I wonder how many Chichester fans will travel to Hastings ???

Littlehampton used to be the dividing line and to be fair it still probably is.
However there are loads of Albion in Bognor and Chi.
The Pompey lot are less proud to show their colours these days so are not seen as much in public.
If they made it back to the Championship things might change.

They were in good voice all the match, looked a fun day for them. I feel a bit guilty not going but I had to watch my kids play.
I will have to get down to Oaklands to watch them soon.

I hope they spend the money wisely!

I know they lost 5-1 today and had a bye in the previous round but who did they beat to become Sussex FA Cup heroes?

There's a bandwagon to jump on in every FA Cup run and this one is no different. I unashamedly went to Middlesbrough in 2013, for example.

I wonder how many Chichester fans will travel to Hastings ???

**** all, but they'll get a pat on the back at the bar and 'Sussex by the sea' will ring out as they walk out to play, closer to the Kent border than they normally play just by Hampshire. Nobody says 'Play up Pompey' and talks in a bumpkin accent this side of the county, I can tell you.

Never liked them since they stopped Southwick winning the County League title in 1979/80.... Last game decider, 0-0 at Old Barn Lane, with Southwick missing a penalty.
