It's a demonstration of the amount of pleasure I'm getting from it that I went and found it without the search function

It ranks right up there, alongside "Better Luck Next Year Brighton" at Cardiff!

 

[London Calling]

who really knows how many we will get?

At the moment our Season tickets cost as much as the Leeds South stand.

Sunderstand sell tickets cheaper than us.

Their area is no greater in population than us but look at their Prem attendances and nor are a lot of Prem sides eg Bolton, Blackburn.

A lot will depend on our ticket prices and how attractgive we are compared to similar products i.e Palace and other Prem sides in London.

With Arsenal holding 60,000 how many people from Brighton or Sussex travel up there to watch top flight footie?

Basically we don't know.

When I were a lad I regulary watched us getting 25,000 and aboce in the old third division, including 30,000 plus on lots of occasions.

So we do have the catchment. And I reckon footie is more attractive now than those dark days in the late 70's and 80's when we had lower gates in the First than the above ....basically because you risked a good kicking evertime you went to a match.

If you showed a hint of modesty I would cheer a great club back to the top.

As it stands enjoy joining the ranks of teams who don't own their own ground.
