A local man has had an incredible stroke of luck after remembering he has always been a massive Brighton fan despite claims from his mates hasn’t given two shits for the last decade.
In an unbelievable turn of events, Ben Dwagon of Dean St, had the revelation at 4.26pm on Saturday just after Solly March scored to almost guarantee The Seagulls promotion to the top flight. Mr Dwagon immediately joined his friends in celebrating his teams success by going on the piss for three days. However sources close to Mr Dwagon have suggested he is a Chelsea fan and a quick scan of his Facebook revealed several unfunny pro Chelsea ‘footy banter’ memes. These are claims Mr Dwagon strenuously denies, ‘Its rubbish my Facebook was obviously hacked. I’m Albion til I die. SEEEEAAGULLLS’ he said.
‘Its disgusting when I hear people say I’m not a real Albion fan. I have been here through thick and thin, through the highs and the lows. There was the time they ran out of steak and ale pies in the 1901 lounge when I went in January. The time I had to stand all of the way back to Brighton on the train after a match in January. Then there was the match I saw about a month after Christmas and I missed a bloody goal and two red cards because I left early. I have had my fair share of it over the years but I stuck with Ray Houghton and the boys and it makes days like Saturday even more sweeter. SEEEEAGUULLS’ he beamed.
When asked if he remembered the dark days at Gillingham and The Withdean, he responded saying, ‘of course I do. I went with Dean to a match in January, he is a mate of mine, I remember it well. But lets not dwell on the past Leon Dunk and the boys have done a cracking job and I can’t wait to see Davey Cockwhale and the lads in the Prem. SEEEEAGUUULLS, can you get any tickets?’.
