Stadium
Rating:
Brunton Park has not changed much in the last 10
years. An old school terrace behind one goal
with an excellent three-triangled roof, a large
seated effort along one side which is split
between home and away fans, an unused terrace
behind one of the goals and the main stand
consisting of seating areas at the rear and a
terrace at the front. 7/10 |
 |
Food
Rating:
Lubcricated penis style hotodgs and a range of
other goods on sale in order to help sober
oneself up. 7/10 |
 |
Entertainment:
Nothing on offer. 0/10 |
 |
Friendliness
of Locals:
Very hospitable, both in the town centre, at the
stadium and on the way home. Some fans were even
more pessimistic about their side than the Crocs
on Tour team are about the Albion, which made
for a refreshing prospective. 8/10 |
 |
Standard
of Local Females:
A number of attractive females spotted in the
town centre, although there was a distinct lack
of top drawer flange at the stadium. 6/10 |
 |
Steward
Rating:
Excellent. They allowed
McCarthy and Jenkins to enter the playing area
in order to access the unused terrace to hang
the flag, and even wished fans a safe journey
home on exit of the stadium. 9/10 |
 |
Flag
Attention:
Due to a cock up before departure, the new Crocs
on Tour flag has to wait until the next away
game for its debut as McCarthy mistakenly bought
the flag of his six-a-side football team, the
Hamsters, instead. This lead to unprecedented
attention, as people questioned what on earth a
flag with seven hamsters drawn on it had to do
with the Albion. 9/10 |
 |
Match
Report:
Brighton picked up their second win of the
season to leapfrog into 15th spot in the league
with a 2-0 victory away at Carlisle. In truth,
both teams were extremely poor, but the Albion
faithful would come away heartened with a first
victory on the road courtersy of two goals from
the in-form Nicky Forster, a number of fine
saves from Michel Kuipers and some superb
rearguard defensive play. |

Thought
of the Day:
If you were to perform anal sex with the South
African athlete who has recently been revealed
as being a hermaphrodite, would it mean you were
infact homosexual? |
