1901 Club priority for away/cup games

[Horsham Gull]

Fc Hove of Brighton

Maybe these folk are like me? I'm a new fan who wants to be part of this new Albion adventure. I say new, I did go to the Spurs, West Ham and Villa cup games but you get my drift. If the club want to fill 22500 seats they need to attract new faces like me....which they seem to be doing.

there's about 15 games left at withdean... get yourself along to some of those and then i might take you seriously.

let me get this straight, so in the past 6 year you have been to 3 games, and contributed exactly £ nothing towards the survival of the club. new fans are always welcome, but please at least have some understanding of the struggle and commitment shown by us loyalist over the past 15 years to keep the club alive.

don't get me wrong its great to see the club moving in the right direction, unfortunately those who can't dish the dosh don't matter anymore, that's the way i see it

ORDAINED fans will be able to apply to God for tickets, surely?

Wont Hiney be allocating the tickets as his nominated deputy ?

I for one was fuming on my 1901 presentation when it was said that the 'ruffian fans' would be in the North Stand and they will be 'happy with a few beers and pies catering wise' when compared to the corporate catering.

Did they actually say that? Total disgrace if they did.

just ordainary fans now

Yep I 100% assure you it was said. My Dad was pretty annoyed about it - classist bollocks. That's why I have a bitter taste about SOME of the 1901 stuff - not the likes of Giraffe and HB&B BTW.

Bit of a PR disaster if the non-1901 are referred to as 'ruffians'.

Although a ruffian is a rowdy person, so perhaps a backhanded complement.

Have heard the same thing from several sources. I thought I might at last get away from the bloody dog burgers but apparently not.

Disagree Woz (if that was a serious comment) - some have yes. I for one was fuming on my 1901 presentation when it was said that the 'ruffian fans' would be in the North Stand and they will be 'happy with a few beers and pies catering wise' when compared to the corporate catering. Those 'ruffians' are the ones who kept this club running throught the gloomy years.

I didn't recognise any faces on the tour and it seemed to be business people who weren't current fans.

When i kicked up a fuss about lack of social facilities for us ordainary fans i got pelters! "they will have bars on the concourse and hot food!" Well you got what you wanted second class status for ordainary fans,thats how you are percieved unless you can wad in for the 1914-1918 club! get back in your trenches boys!

Les - it's a fishing trip. Pork Knuckle Dragger is a fake account.

At least we can eat dog burgers under cover! we never had it so good! stop complaining! The folks in the big house have been very kind,lets bless them some more

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Not too late to start a campaign for an Uncle Sams franchise for the ruffian fans? No reason it has to be dog burgers when it could be Sussex finest

That's football now for you bert!

And if you use the Club Wembley example even they've been screwed over for the Champions League final because UEFA know they can make money out the prime seats by flogging them themselves.

Good to see you back BTW.

I share some of your reservations, I bought the 1901 club seats for the better view, the car park space and for somewhere warm for my elderly father to go at half time. He deserves a bit of comfort. But I have little time for a lot of corporate bollocks. The club shouldn't allow corporates to have greater priority than STHs in my view, and I am disappointed for others that they are given over even more of thebetter seats to potentially non current STHs.

 

[poidy]

I really dont want to go in for all this 1901 bollocks but i feel its my only option at the minute. Im not an exsisting season ticket holder and i dont wanna be umongst the free for all when they go on general sale. That will be a nightmare. Also hearing that 1901 have first priority at away games is slightly worrying.

I feel im getting pushed into a corner here

thats the way i see it too, it's not right, i cant afford a season ticket let alone the Prawn Sandwich Club, why the f*** should they get priororty for Big Games, if you asked the majority of the PS Club i doubt they even could name half the team, again looks like money fucks, its Bollocks.
