NickG Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 four threads on first page of their forum on Adkins. More than on Poyet? Can't see why they don't enjoy their great season - first is the achievement, not beating just us. Compliment suppose http://northstandchat.com/forumdisplay.php?20-The-Big-Board Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalek2003 Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 The vast majority of BHA are just enjoying bragging rights and i don't blame them. With their stadium and league position they are riding the crest of a wave . It's the plastic fans that annoy me not the fans of clubs like Brighton Huddersfield or Bournemouth. Football is about banter, without a bit of rivalry it would be fairly pointless ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, and btw, there are also 4 threads about Brighton on this forum's front page. Now come on, keep up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That doesnt mean that we cant call them c*nts when they crop up on here tho. Ive asked this before and had no answer yet, how many of this forum's posters post on other clubs fansites? I know adriansfc was on the brighton site the other day, and that seemed fair enough to me, but we do seem to get a steady stream of wums on here.

Saint Charlie Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 To think Adkins dared to say he wanted to win the league. In his last interview on Saints Player he was very complimentary about Brighton. Not sure what their fans really expected him to say, 'Well with 30 games to go I would settle for anything below Brighton. They have beaten us 0-0 tonight and are a fantastic team who should be in the Champions League. I wish I managed them.' Total overreaction.

A lot of our lot seem to cry at any sort of banter and take the slightest little thing as a slight, like constantly having a pop at Andy Towsend because he doesn't mention he played for us everytime he goes on the telly.

beardy Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 He could have said "Yes, I expect them to be challenging for the title with us." when asked "do you see Brighton as your main rivals?" Instead he chose "If they can keep up with us." Do you think ANY set of fans would let that pass, given what has happened since? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could have said "Brighton will walk to the title and win it by 15 points" then everyone would have been slamming him for giving up before christmas.

trousers Posted 2 April, 2011 Share Posted 2 April, 2011 I think we should start 3 more threads about Brighton's threads about us. That way the mutual obsession will be equal, and on a par with the Bournemouth obsession in February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
