Nah its a pre-season friendly, and most of the away supporters are from brighton and hove will probably be drinking in the pubs with there brighton mates before and after the game, I don't think there is a high risk of trouble!

Doubt there will be any trouble- out of those 4000 I guess half will be kids and most live within Brighton area.

Tickets were only avaiable to Chelsea fans with a certain level of points just like our tickets so only season ticket holders or regular travellers got tickets. I'm meeting a Chelsea fan from work who is one of these rare Chelsea fans who actually attends games!

I assumed tickets went to anyone interested. Well- enjoy the match and hope we win.
So you can only be an away season ticket holder if you don't live in Brighton?
Well they can only have about 4,000 away season ticket holders in total. Do you think it's likely that they all live in brighton??

Home tickets, however, were on sale to anyone. Expect plenty of Chelsea amongst the Home support.

Port Vale or Crawley in the FA cup. Whichever was last. they were both given the entire east stand. Portsmouth had quite a few in the north stand for a cup game, which I think was the same season as the Crawley game.
Before that, Chelsea had the whole of the east stand for a game in the eighties.

Absolutely no chance of that. On average away fans are younger, oikier and been drinking more. And we have given them the best part of the ground to make noise.

Having viewed last seasons games from various points of the ground, meaning moving around a lot around the ground during some games. More noise comes from the Upper west than any part including the north.
I assume you are in the north and being in the centre of noise from there you don't have a good perspective of the noise being generated from other parts.
The bit your in always appears louder because its right in you earholes!!

75% of Brighton supporters don't live in Brighton.
I have mentioned this more than once.

I appreciate what you have said, however I'm not trying to turn this into a contest about who is the loudest. All I'm saying is that I never really heard much from the WSU other than a few renditions of AAALLBBIIIOOOON and we're the West Stand. Even when we were quiet in the North there was very little coming from WSU, I'm not saying they weren't making noise but we just couldn't hear it which would suggest it doesn't have the best acoustics.

This. However there will be a few fans in our stands with tickets bought by Brighton supporting mates.
There will, of course, be Brighton Season Ticket Holders who still have Chelsea as their first team (not many granted).

I've got two tickets and my mate coming with me is a Chelsea fan and goes to see them regularly. He has been down to the Amex a couple of times last year and rates the way we play. Today is a friendly and apart from there always a couple of bell ends, hardly a recipe for aggro! Looking forward to it! Come on you blue & whites! (stripes!)

The 4,000 in WSU will be uberfans who travel to all the away games and got first dibs , coming back from Albion games in the north if there happens to be any Chelsea fans on the same train as us they are well behaved. I suspect there will be Chelsea fans scattered elsewhere in the ground who know somebody on the database buying a £30 ticket on their behalf.
