I actually have no dog in this fight, as I have a foot in West and East Sussex camps having grown up in mid Sussex on either side of the county border. However, Chichester always was a Portsmouth area. The cut off seemed to be LA: Albion, Bognor: Pompey.

I'd gladly assume we are making great strides to take that bit of Sussex back of course, as we are brilliant and Portsmouth are division 3 shite. Forever.
But what about Barnham and Ford

Long time ago but Celtic won the European Cup with all the team born within 30 miles of Parkhead
Or something like that

Chelsea have loads. Mount, Chalobah, LC, Gallagher, James, more I'm sure. Everton-Coady, Davies, Simms. Arsenal must have loads. United always have loads. Same with West Ham..Liverpool always have loads that get at least some minutes over a season. Villa too. It's really not that unusual.

Were they born in the same borough though! Personally growing up in Shoreham and a decade in Brighton, I feel the greater Brighton conurbation is the true heart of BHA, the rest is all big eared boys on the farms and city commuters just making the most of a top team.

Yes, as we all know West is as important, if not more important, than the East of the County :)
Historically Brighton & Hove were in East Sussex
Now if people from West Sussex want to come and support our football team,that's great
As long as you can swear on oath,you have never been to Fratton Park,other than to watch the Albion

I think you need anger management therapy for your feelings towards The Twats :wink:

Mason Mount isn't from any London borough, as he was born in Portsmouth. Nor Chalobah who is from Sierra Leone.

Concentrate on the Sussex bit rather than the East or West. Don't fall for the divide and rule.

None of us will be druv - Louis MacNeice
