You want it both ways. You want us to boycott Withdean
Boycott the Withdean - North Stand Chat
and attend games there to show that we are 'real' fans!
Hmm... good point

If you buy a ticket at Withdean the club get the money. If you buy an away ticket the opposition get the money.

I doubt very much whether all the actual season ticket holders went themselves. A lot never, ever go away, irrespective of the game and allow family, friends and acquaintances to use their tickets.
This always happens when BHA get a big game and I would make a rough guesstimate that there were no more than 2,500 season ticket holders at Villa Park.
What is it with some people's insistence on continually sniping at the Withdean STH's?
Are we saying that the majority of fans who can afford to go to every match are single or retired, with no or very little bills to pay etc etc?......cause if we are, then I am must be classed as a glory hunter, even though i have followed Brighton for 30years and in my single days I travelled all over England. But now however I have different priorites and now spend my money on my house, food and family......sorry but that is how live is im afraid, any money left over can then go into entertainment.But at the mo there isn't alot.
So, am I fan , Glory hunter or just plain old normal ?.....(I would love to go to every game home and away and come back to my cardboard box..........erm no thanks)
Funny, I read it more as a swipe at those who went to Villa. There was so much utter utter rubbish written on here that the fans at Villa would all be glory-hunters, plastics, would wonder where Zamora was, wouldn't know what division we were in, didn't go to Withdean, etc etc. Whereas in fact there were only about 7000 (unlike at Cardiff) and as you had to be an STH or a member to go I reckon the percentage of 'glory hunters' who hadn't been since Cardiff was miniscule. And as this thread has demonstrated a vast number of the Villa attendees also go to Withdean on at least a semi-regular basis.What an absolute load of horseshit. What is it with some people's insistence on continually sniping at the Withdean STH's?
couldnt go to villa.
had to turn down millwall ticket as hangover from hell. ticket paid for though.
my ticket £23.50 my sons in family section £4.50 took his mate both under 16 £13.50 rip off 80th minute before a decent shot on target at home ,if my village team played that poorly they would get slated in club house after first and last home game of season for me .at these prices when people are scraping by on low wage the club should be doing more to look after everyone
No, you don't have to go to Withdean to be a real fan, but be aware that you contribute exactly f*** ALL by not going. Your choice of course - perhaps we're all just mugs. But you also don't then moan when we don't sign better players or improve the facilities - where do you think Div 3 club funds come from?
If you buy a ticket at Withdean the club get the money. If you buy an away ticket the opposition get the money.
The reason some people get pissed off with fans who refuse to go to Withdean is that all boycotting Withdean does is hurt the club. Seems an odd thing for a "fan" to do.
