Is there anyone who doesn't think Brighton fans are a bunch of arrogant, witless bed wetters?

Anyway

Heart says Sheffield Utd, Barnsley, Accrington,

Head says Hull, Walsall, Pompey

I know quite a few from when I lived down there and they are generally OK. However, online they are collectively like you describe but that could probably be said for a lot of fans.

I can understand them having e-beef with Palace and to a lesser extent, us, after all, we consistently got the jump on them for a decade but they seem to like making enemies with everyone.

Fair enough, we and every other forum has its muppets but generally, away fans don't come on here trying to stir up shit, you don't tend to see Reading fans on other forums stirring up shit and generally we have a reasonable grasp of where we stand in the grand scheme of things and don't suffer from small man syndrome.

Would like to see
Hull (one less long away trip)
Walsall (local to me)
Accrington (near miss on the final day)
win through.

That forum is absolutely fantastic reading. I am particularly grateful as it is 7:20 am and I'm in a foul mood so it's cheering me right up.

They really hate Brighton. One poster saying something like "They have some really angry and bitter fans"... and "For some it seems football started in 2012 when they moved into their shiny new stadium".




So apparently Sheffield Wednesday are a big bigger than Brighton AND HOVE (Sheffield Wednesday like empahasising this for some reason). Brighton are NOT a "tiny club". We are.

bobby1413 We should invite some of the Owls over, it would be a hoot.

Championship - anyone but Brighton. I'd like to see Sheffield Wednesday go up. Would laugh my head off if Derby don't get through too.

League One - Would like Millwall as it's a good day out.

League Two - Again don't mind too much. Would be cool to see Accrington go up or Wimbledon.

This.

Have Mk Dons and Wimbledon been in the same division? I don't think they have, so for that alone a Wimbledon victory would be great.

Think Portsmiff need at least one more season down-at-heel in Div 4 as penance for their previous financial misdemeaners.....other than that...nice old-age ground and blooding a few youngsters these days....always fun at The Rifle too!

Wish list:

Prem; Sheff W ...always a nailed on 6-0 win against Premier opposition should we meet them in the cup....
Chump; Barnsley...6 points for us
Div 1; Accy.....smallest crowds to ever grace the third division
Div 2; FGR...anyone but Cleethorpes

Wednesday goal wrongly ruled out for offside about two weeks after it went in.

Wonder if the Brighton fans will continue their crusade against the corrupt FA.
