Passionate Fans

[FalmerforAll!**]

I have always wished that the Albion could bring out scarves like Liverpool whenever we heard the club anthem.Some may say it's stupid but you have to admit,whenever you see the Kop and singing You'll Never Walk Alone it makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up.I know it seems a little farfetched but it just makes me wonder.Still,I'm sure the new Kop end at Withdean will give it their best!

Sitting in the kop when its in full flight, is without doubt one of the best football experiances one can have !!

Standing in the Kop would've been infinately better.

Somke may say it's stupid

Are you our new Russion billionaire investor? You've let it slip there...

 

[Herne Hill Seagull]

Seconded, Easy. Anyone who went to Anfield for the Cup game in '91 will remember what it looked and sounded like when people still stood on it. Absolutely awesome.

As one who has stood in the Kop I agree. The atmosphere in there was fantastic. They have totally ruined it by making it all-seater. Try finding a Liverpool fan who will disagree with seating after Hillsborough and that's another matter though.

When the Albion were there in the cup in the 90's I seem to remember the red hordes going rather quiet. That Mickey Small goal was amazing, I thought I was gonna have a heart attack.

[Brighton till i die]

they ruined Anfield and every other ground when they got rid of terracing - f***ing wankers!

I do indeed. It took my breath away.
I actually remember it very clearly. The Kop was full, and the first time I saw it, it was kind of "framed" in the distance by the concrete tunnel as I walked up the steps from beneath the stand to take my seat. Once I emerged from the steps, and saw the whole of Anfield for the first time, it was simply awesome.

The only thing that has surpassed it for me was that same moment I walked out into the Millennium Stadium. A real shivers-up-the-spine moment.

 

[Lokki 7]

Seconded, Easy. Anyone who went to Anfield for the Cup game in '91 will remember what it looked and sounded like when people still stood on it. Absolutely awesome.

As I remember it, it was us who were awesome that day, not the mickey mousers.

They're only waving their scarves about to proove they're not nicking hubcaps.

We were indeed Lokki, but the roar they let out just before they kicked off the second half, kicking towards the Kop, remains the loudest thing I've ever heard at a football match.

 

[1066gull]

i take my scarf nearly every match (apart from if its warm) and try to hold it up with pride with sussex by the sea

I've always thought Marching on Together would go nicely at Falmer!*Cue the words 'shut' and 'up'*.But whenever Leeds sing it,it sounds so incredible with the echo.Also at the Shearer testimonial, when the Newcastle fans started waving their scarves around their heads,it looked utterly incredible.A man can dream.....

If you don't mind me asking, did you ever go to the goldstone?

Nope

Re: Re: Passionate Fans

We will!Considering we have all the students around us,I think we'll get a decent atmosphere going round there.Me and other NSC member Sir Danny Cullip are going to be buying a big flag for the occassion of our new seats their!

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Nope

Ah, right. I'm sure I remember many a scarf waving and holding aloft moment on the north stand. Obviously didn't have quite the same effect as the kop, but hey ho.
