I think someone has tried to explain why we are tinpot and Brighton are massive.
The slight difference is that we are a once-large-ish club that fell on hard times but have since come back, whereas they were a traditionally small club who suddenly acquired a lot of new fans with new scarves. And will always struggle to fill all those blue plastic seats because the traditional fan base simply isn't there.

Brighton Bingo for the thread you're quoting:

Tinpot
Mention of the pitch invasion
Exclamation of indifference
Link to Lady Sasima's song

How close are we?

I like the way they all think he doesn't know their history, when he specifically says they should remember their roots.

Personally I agree, I'd expect a club that's gone through so much with fans that fought so hard to keep it going might have a bit more class and show a slightly bigger degree of humbleness rather than being so up their own arses at their (very) recent success, largely achieved through a sugar daddy finally coming along.


We weren't like this in 2005/6 were we? We've got a bit more up ourselves in the last 10 years certainly, but nowhere near as bad as them.

To be fair, Kermie's tackle on Rosenior was pretty terrible.

Predicted this would be their opinion of him. Tbf to them the tackle was a shocker, premeditated, designed to maim. I was indeed surprised only a yellow was shown, but what their lot fail to recall is the crafty dig of the elbow into Kermogant's face from Rosenior 30 seconds or so beforehand. The classic retribution challenge.

Interesting they raise Richard Carpenter into the debate - now there was a man who deserved every bit of abuse he got for his challenge on Chris Casper.

It's not all sunshine and lollipops on North stand bedwetting chats today. Huddersfield to beat Newcastle next for the full Chernobyl meltdown especially if they don't win at Forest.

Their run in looks easy enough. Even for a club of annual bottlers surely failure is even beyond them now?

A very unexpected but welcome 3 points for Forest. Mind Brighton fans haven't taken it very well at all.

Don't tell me, it was the ref's fault, offside goal, handball on the build up, goal wrongly ruled out, your manager and fans haven't been lavishing praise on Brighton that they so richly deserve?

Oh and your ground is probably not a patch on the Am Ex either, and you (exception being Siforest living in beautiful Berkshire) live in a shitehole which can't hold a candle to Sussex, etc etc.

Am I close?
