I asked a fellow NSC user for a form.I don't see the problem as i'm not a current season ticket holder.I want to make sure i get a seat of my choice and where.

Oh and thanks to that poster.You know who you are.Infact two people offered me one.

Personally I wouldn't, people have sat and endured the withdean (many for far longer than I have) and in turn kept the club running and it does take the piss for other to jump in front of them and get the best seats (seats are not all the same and offer brilliant views before someone says it)

Doubt I would do it for non fans although all my + 3's are gone so can't really give a 100% answer.

Not as simple as that,I've probably been going to football alot longer then you but i just can't stomac Withdean.I respect people who have though as they are the lifeline.But i did my bit during the Archer years.
A lot of my good friends were regular Goldstone boys who don't go anymore due to Withers.

I'm after 3, all for myself + mates that spent the previous 3 seasons at Withdean as season ticket holders, but didn't get one this season for various reasons. Will be at Falmer regardless.... I hope

Then you can join the queue behind people who have been attending, would there be a problem with that? Just think that people who have sat there for 10 years (of which I'm not 1) deserve the best seats

I have had both an Arsenal fan and a Spurs fan in my local ask me so far. Not sure if they will come up with the spondulicks when it comes down to it though :shrug:

I will ONLY be allowing my friends who I KNOW have been regulars at Withers the chance of being one of my plus 3's.

I will NOT be letting anyone else who before now has shown little or no interest in the Albion to be one of mine. I reckon that MOST of the STHs have the same view.

To be honest when someone becomes a fan doesn't matter so long as we fill the Amex. I started at The Goldstone in 1967 and attended until I betrayed the Albion in 1979 when I joined the services; on returning to Horsham in 1992 I didn't pick them up again until 1999, from which point I've held a ST ... good fan or bad fan? Someone who starts last year, next year or the following year is still a fan.

I never understood this way of thinking personaly, no Withdean is not great but it's not really as bad as some people make out either. First and foremost supporting Brighton is much more important to me and I would have done this in preston park if needs be.
There have been some great times at Withdean that I would not trade for anything, some people have really missed out on this due to their own self imposed exile. at the end of the day though that's the individuals choice which is up to them.
As a result of going to witthers on a reqular basis I feel much more connected to the club and feel I have really earnt my seat at Falmer and that's important to me.
My spare form will go to people that have at least been requalr at Withdean.

I got a cousin who has been a few times when he's not to busy thinking he supports Arsenal, he loves jumping on the band wagon which I hate, not only won't he get my form I wouldn't even wnat to sit near him.
