Best ever away fans at Withdean

[Ringmer Seagull]

In the spirit of carrying on the Withean retrospective on here, which group of away fans have most impressed you at Withdean ?. I missed the FC United game which might be a candidate but I`ll kick off with two suggestions:

Oldham a couple of seasons ago. Came down in large numbers , sang their hearts out and not a single homophobic chant.

Swansea in their championship year. Packed out the away end and made lots of noise.

 

[Brighton M]

FCUM might be a candidate? Definite winners for me.

Other than that, Coventry for me are probably the biggest surprise in terms of volume, although Leeds and Stoke are loud.

Yes, might be a candidate because , as I said, I missed the game (and hence cannot comment). Agree with the other three, Stoke in particular (Delilah at full volume really is very impressive)

FC United hands down, continous noise.

 

[The Merry Prankster]

FCUM by several miles.

 

[Return of the Rev]

stoke city!

 

[SirElliotBennett]

Defently FCUM. When Swansea came it was the last game of the season and they lifted the trophy so it was expected they would bring a lot.

 

[Fef]

FCUM by several miles.

and then some. Withdean was rocking that night.

 

[Lindfield by the Pond]

I remember Barnet in the fog. Couldn't see them, but they had brilliant rendition of twist and shout!

 

[pottert]

Fcum deffo

 

[fire&skill]

Yep - they were still singing as we walked up towards Dyke Road

 

[seagullondon]

I remember Millwall making a lot of noise with there "noone likes us we dont care, we are millwall blah blah" had it in my head for days after the game

 

[Half Man Half Biscuit]

Gold: FCUM for this game.

Silver: Stoke City

 

[Spider]

and then some. Withdean was rocking that night.

that night? FCUM that afternoon were definetely the best by a long long way.

I seem to remember Norwich in the first Championship season being very noisy. In general I think the away fans were noisier when they were in the family stand (for obvious reasons).

Leeds fans after this game - BBC SPORT | Football | League One | Brighton 0-1 Leeds

is the loudest I have heard the away end.

 

[NMH]

FCUM

Happy, tuneful, energetic and spirited. The stewards even applauded them at the end after the incongruous 'Category C' rating treatment

 

[Cornish seagull!]

Ive only been to 2 games but FCUM were one of them. They went for 90 mins and on what ive seen and heard they deserve the gold

 

[Sir Norman Gull]

Definitely FCUM-a young lad in front of me said to his dad ' Daddy I want to be in that end!'

 

[Jam The Man]

Stoke City

 

[Dave the OAP]

I think we all wanted to go and be in the away end that game.

FCUM were quite brilliant and we have never come close to that sort of support
