Anyone else get a bit emotional during the sit-in?

[Safeway]

Don't know if it was the solidarity felt between the fans, players and board, the desperate nature of the situation, or just the alcohol, but I'll freely admit to welling more than once during today's protest. A couple of times I heard my voice crack while shouting 'we want Falmer' and more than a couple of tears had to be wiped away.

Certainly was powerful stuff. Haven't been like that since Dick Knight spoke on the balcony of Hove Town Hall after winning Division 3.

Can't begin to put into words all the feelings swirling around today, but suffice to say I am so f***ing PROUD to be Brighton and I'm so f***ing PROUD of everyone else that fights for the cause.

We did it with Archer, we did it getting back to Brighton and we'll do it again.

We WILL get Falmer. We HAVE to.

I didn't cry but it was emotional.

I didn't hear that much as I used my whistle all the way through

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

This story WILL have a happy ending. Far too many good good people involved for it not to. KTF.

Got a few goose bumps listening to it all on SCR.

[Bobby's Gull]

I did listening to you all. It was one of those surreal moments you kno? You ALL sounded BRILLIANT.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

And when the police seemed to be about to arrest Guy Butters, Danny Cullip and Kerry Mayo for invading the pitch, I just went speechless with anticipation.

 

[fatboy]

I agree Safeway.

 

[MRRF 10]

i also agree, and i also used my whistle, but only before the game, half time, and in the sit in, although i was standing

 

[dwayne]

Valder at match shocker!!

Thought the sit in was ok, reckon it would have been a lot more spectacular at, say, the QPR game where we had more people.

The stewards were an absolute disgrace

 

[Jordan_SEAGULLS_Harris]

I was getting very emotional, and had to stop singing on a few occasions just to make sure tears didn't follow!!!

 

[albiongirl]

Yes it was emotional and I had tears well up in my eyes it was hard not too. I agree the stewards were a disgrace but I had to laugh as one tried to stop Charlie but he just pushed him out of the way

 

[chemical brother]

Yeah, man it was emotional. I ain't cried at a match since Paul Watson scored in the final game of the division 2 season at Port Vale, but that was close dudes. Respect to everyone who made it happen.

actually i thought very highly of the stewards. despite malcolm the jobsworth that tried to stop the players joining us, we had a chat with a couple on the way out - they were doing it for free as wycombe can't afford to pay them over time, and they wished us the best of luck

 

[Trotster]

Yep - i got a little sad but put it down to teh bottle of vino b efore the game!!!
