My son's always been keen to wear his replica shirt when out and about, usually surrounded by WHU, Spurs and Arsenal shirts among his peers.

But he hasn't yet used his MyAlbion picnic blanket, as he thought it was a towel - kids, eh, what do they know!

I do have a Brighton sticker on the back window of my car but it's tinted, so you can barely see it!
I wear an Albion shirt whenever I watch matches in the pub.
I have a couple of long-sleeved training tops which I wear for winter running or post-run in the pub.
Also, a good collection of Albion "toques"* on rotation throughout the winter.
In the house, I have a few mugs and a couple of framed prints.

Living in Yorkshire close to the two massives can be a little stressful when showing the colours. I had a BHA plate and sticker in the window. They kindly smashed the window and damaged the plate. Now my car has no obvious insignia.
When I am out and about in Donny I can often be seen wearing a Brighton sweat top or tee shirt. Also a badged cap or hat occasionally. Same with my son. When he has a kick about with some friends he is always in Brighton kit.
Mainly Donny fans are always happy to chat an tend to admire the Albion. As for Leeds and Sheffield Wednesday fans the arrogance drips from their tongues. Some Leeds fans offered to take me and the lad to a Leeds v Brighton game. We accepted the lift,but had to put up with superiority complexes. I did chip in with ',You know Brighton are quite good and I think we might win' . 'Nonsense' they said adding 'It must be a privilege to play mighty Leeds.'
After we duly won ,I was amazed they let us back in the car. The journey home was in silence. We never saw them again.

In the summer 1983 I was lucky enough to attend the Bobby Charlton Soccer School. All the boys wore their replica kits and as you can imagine there were countless Man United shirts but also a lot of Liverpool, Everton and even quite a few Man City kits and some Arsenal ones. And among them all there was one kid in a Brighton and Hove Albion kit! 😁
