Yes, it is okay. My comments were obviously tongue in cheek. I will relate a story from when we drew 1-1 with Saints with a Neil Maupay equaliser in the 98th minute. I was in the Giddy Bridge pub waiting for my Albion mates to turn up. The place had a fair number of Saints fans and one of them asked me where I lived. Bitterne, I answered - by the way I was wearing a Albion shirt. Why aren’t you a Saints then, was the question. I replied, I live in Southampton but I don’t come from here I’m a Sussex boy. He just didn’t get it and insisted that I should support Saints - cue face palm from his mates.
It was then I informed Mr. Thicky that I would catch the train from Southampton to Brighton on match days and that often I’d see Brighton based Saints fans board the train at Brighton to go to Southampton. Same difference I said. His head then exploded in sheer bewilderment at this juncture. His mates then put him back in his box for safekeeping.
