Are you for real ? How on earth could you even consider letting him follow Leicester, he should be a sky blue end of .................... Only my opinion though
Just buy the lad the new Cov shirt and he should be sorted, worked with me anyway.
It totally NLHWC!! I thought brighton had sold 20,000 Season Tickets?
My Uncle was born in Burton Upon Trent. The family team is Derby County. He was a Derby fan up until the age of around 7 (I think) when the family moved to Coventry, my gramps got a job teaching at the Butts. When he moved to Coventry, they became his team... and than God they did because he was the direct influence on my City supporting. He bought me my first ticket and my first Season Ticket.
I do not resent him for this. I am proud that after all those years of nearlys and dissapointments, we have a fan base strong enough to support a healthy forum such as this, able to provide the record away following at Old Trafford and carry on singing through relegation to the third tier.
I am a glory supporter. The glory of CCFC isn't in the trophy cabinet, its in the colours and the fans. It is a privalege to be able to pass that on to my daughter!!
Litterally years of effort and that's all I had to do??!!
haha, some funnies on here.
My little girl is 3 and not only have i got to persuade her to....sorry tell her, she supports the Sky Blues, but ive got to try and keep the bloody rugby away from her! Ive taught her the City song and Sky Blue Army chant, so im getting there, but she's a proper girly girl so probably wont be taking he up the Ricoh anytime soon.
The wife was telling us that when I was on the way back from the Bristol City game, she was telling her that we had lost....my daughter was like, 'oh dear, daddy is going to be sad' Then i had her asking me why we lost when i was taking her to bed....probably a delay tactic and was aimed at getting me in a rant about SISU for half an hour!
ive got her a knock off Barca top with Messi on the back, she's got the deep MMMMMEEESSSSSSSIIIIII chant down to a tee!
At what age would you have to pay for your kid to go the match anyway?
So, id say yeah, take your lad to the match and try and get him to follow the Sky Blues. Or threaten to put his board up.
I had my honeymoon in Worthing!! I did an open mic night there... can't remember the name of the pub... but I said that was the reason for my visit from the stage... everyone laughed!! I never understood why!! It's a lovely little town!! A little dead at night... but that's what Brighton's for isn't it?
Hi Dan!! If she's a JSB she's free until the age of 7!!
Mines a proper Disney Princess too but she does love shouting "UNBELIEVABLE TEKKEEEERRRS"
Well, we both love Brighton and we spent all of our money on the wedding so we went down to there for a few days, then just looked around for nice local hotels and, bam there was one in Worthing... I can't remember what the hotel was called now... it was only August!! The open mic was in a bar called Orange or someting. We did notice, walking around after we checked in that there were more mobility scooters than cars and the pier theatre had countless productions of "Oh, What A Lovely War" and Daniel O'Donnell tributes. It was a nice stone beach though, the locals were friendly enough.
Yeah, Brighton's a smashing little city-quirky as you'd expect but its got its own independent appeal which makes it different to most other places in the South East. More to the point, in Brighton itself, everyone's Seagulls mad-there's Albion Kebabs, Albion Scaffolding, Albion Barbers, Albion Bakers etc; the club's a real part of the community and everyone buys into it.
That's not always been the case, has it?
You see, we get touted as a community asset, yet there's really not as much as you might expect in Coventry, is there! I can't help but think the kids of Coventry would buy into the sky blues more if there was that sense of community or that presence withing the City.
The Amex has given it all a new lease of life. I've a real respect for Brighton fans when you consider the things the club's been through since the Goldstone got knocked down-travelling to Gillingham to home games, then spending years at the god awful Withdean. It is different though when comparing with CCFC as Cov don't have a whole county to themselves to draw support from (Crawley being new kids on the block); which is where clubs like Norwich really benefit. A few buildings're painted sky blue but aside from that, the club doesn't really have much presence in town.
