Brighton Fan here to help if u have any questions

Quoted from ska face

Might be a quirk of the swear filter on here, which changes “búgger” to sodomist.

I thought it all seemed a bit over the top!

Yeah, that’s exactly what it is. Our slightly bizarre swear filter which rather than blanking out naughty words, attempts to turn them into less offensive alternatives, except in this instance, it’s done the opposite.

It’s a bit of a blunt instrument with often weird (though not usually offensive) effects, to be honest. Probably time to turn it off or at least change it so that it just stars words out instead.

Indeed. If we didn’t like you, we’d tell you to intercourse off, you fornicator.

Best to use Irish expletives I find - I particularly like feckarse (as an expression I mean...)

Do you know whats funny, I saw an article a few years back saying that in terms of adults who stated they were gay/lesbian, it was about 13.2% in Brighton & Hove and in the same article Manchester were just behind at 13.1%, but when we played Man Utd they're all singing about Brighton fans being gay, You literally couldn't make it up  

When I was a student at Sussex Uni about 25 years ago I remember signing a petition to allow the controversial building of the AMEX in Falmer. Does this mean I get a complimentary ticket for the match? If it wasn't for people like me you might still be at The Withdean.

Nah we'd have just built it somewhere else (there were a couple of other options) but thanks for signing though

Funnily enough, 10 years or so ago I took my wife for a weekend in Manchester for her birthday. I know Manchester fairly well these days but didn’t at the time, and booked a hotel called Velvet on Canal Street.

Lovely hotel, but it was only in the evening in the hotel bar that it dawned on me that we were literally the only straight couple in there and we were, in fact, bang in the heart of Manchester’s gay district.

Ended up having probably the gayest night out I’ve ever had, but also one of the best me and the missus have had together as a couple. Different vibe altogether.

You won’t hear any homophobic nonsense from us (we don’t have a chant filter, fortunately). Not that we would anyway, but we’ll be to busy singing “c'est sera sera”. Hopefully…

That’s mental!
