The club will have to sell someone soon......

 

[Trigger]

Or lower prices to get bums on seats...

 

[Robot Chicken]

...no, probably the first option. How can they lower prices too far when all the season ticket holders have already paid?

 

[mona]

But you can't expect our loyal fans to turn up at Withdean as there is no atmosphere, the STHs are boring old farts, away trips are more of a laugh, it was better last season when we were boring but losing to better teams and the girlfriend wants to go shopping anyway.

 

[CHAPPERS]

I went! I went!








(I also left with half an hour left as it was cold)

Yes, you can, otherwise you can't call them loyal fans. Besides which, the whole point of more fans coming along is to create or enhance that atmosphere. So by not coming because 'there's no atmosphere' is a kind of self-fulfilling prophecy.

the STHs are boring old farts...

Eejit.

...it was better last season when we were boring but losing to better teams...

Really? I thought it was the glory-hunters - sorry, moaners - on here who though last seasonwas utter cack and wouldn't come.

...and the girlfriend wants to go shopping anyway.

Change your girlfriend. Since when did anyone's girlfriend wanting to go shopping ever prove reason enough to miss the Albion? Or do you have an excessively large thumb-print on your head? Dreadfully pathetic excuse.

It must be a Monday morning. I was attempting irony.

would attendance be better if it was in the day? kids stand was not full and lots of people prob thought weather is gonna be crap cant be bothered or maybe cos x factor was on? i go rain shine whatever

 

[Barrel of Fun]

At the moment we are in danger of a self fulfilling prophecy. The club can only do so much to fill the stands without offending the season ticket holders.

Shouts that we do not need a stadium as we can't fill Withdean look to be rather accurate at this rate.

Will the prices come down, if/when we get Falmer? I very much doubt it.

Quite a drop over the last few years....

 

[Robot Chicken]

...if they were so loyal then they'd turn up in all weathers as the fans know full well the club needs the money.

 

[The Large One]

Oh bugger.

 

[BIRCHYBOY27]

i know they should turn up in all weathers as i said i would if it was a force 10 gale was among us i would still go, i cant understand why people wont go it upsets me for instance out of my mates who go me and one other went one was going shopping with his bird one was going out for a friends 30th and one said to cold they annoy me sometimes cos it will be much colder at wham but they will go i want to clone myself and all of me can go

 

[Commander]

Oh bugger.

It's early Monday morning, so we'll let you off.

Tickets are too expensive but the price reductions for the two FA Cup games didn't result in bigger crowds.
It is important that we get a big crowd on Boxing Day. Of course the excuse for this one will be, " would have made it if the kick off was 1.00 but I always drink bottles of sherry with my gran in the afternoon."

 

[SJ's Love Monkey]

Palace got their lowest league crowd of the season Saturday, just under 17,000 but there are many factors, obviously the ticket prices are way too high, time of year and the shit being served up on the pitch doesn't help!!!

 

[BIRCHYBOY27]

no excuses go to the game!!!! support the boys they are playing well at the mo so get behind the team im going to cardiff on boxing day to go to my gfriend parents for a couple of days ive said we go after the game shes not happy but im not gonna budge

 

[Scoffers]

Well, Dick Knight is supposed to be a Marketing Genius, so why can't he figure it out !!!

 

[mejonaNO12 aka riskit]

the atmosphere would be better if alot of the people who claim they dont go because of the atmosphere, actually went
