People want to watch winners not young boys!
The crowds are probably a thounsand shy on the goldstone due to withdean.
Great the club are marketing themselves but the best form of marketing in football is a winning team that signs winners for players!

I agree totally and said the same thing earlier in this thread. They can market the club until the holes in their bums heal over-if the product is crap, people will stay away and a crowd of 6226 confirms that.

Therein lies the problem. This was meant to help the atmosphere, not BE the atmosphere. Withdean still wouldn't sing.eastlondonseagull said:

The major problem is that the majority of our support cant here our singing section sing, because their efforts are lost into the atmosphere as there is no roof.
If they were behind the goal (where the family stand is) the south stand would be able to hear them as they would be singing in there direction and people would join in. I can hear the family section in block E but not our singing section!
The reason the away fans seem loud is because their voices are coming towards us not away.
Would people in the singing section give up their view from the south stand? Probably not, so lets face it withdean is shit to get a big atmos going.
Oh and it would help if there was something to shout about on the pitch!!!

This is a very good point. There's been a lot of hand-wringing over the fact that if the club sell tickets cheaply, it pisses off season ticket holders who have already paid circa £22. However, if you actually USE SEASON TICKETS HOLDERS to sell the tickets, and reward them, the problem is solved.
I wrote to the club a few weeks ago with a few suggestions, one of which was as follows:
Season Ticket Holders are incentivised to buy additional tickets (for friends/family, etc) to all home games. These tickets would cost (say) fifteen quid, BUT for each ticket bought the club would give (say) a ten pound discount off the cost of renewing your season ticket. So, if someone bought 10 tickets for mates, etc, over the remainder of the season, they would have earned the right to renew their season ticket for 07/08 at a discount of £100.
There are numerous variations of the above. However, if (say) Beach Hut was able to sell 100 tickets that would surely entitle him to at least one free Season Ticket for next season.

I think I sold around 350 tickets last season for £6 or £12 with an agreed offer with the club.
Not even bothered to contact me this season to see if I would like to do this again.
At times like this you have to question what value commercial people add to this club when we are 2500 odd fans.

Rattles. Big old wooden rattles. Painted blue & white. Then we could twirl AND make some noise. Preferably while wearing cloth caps

Sorry to be a downer, I took two clients on a hospitality day out, got them scarves etc, one was an ex Goldstone STH and one a Millwall fan who entered into the spirit of things by donning the blue and white scarf. Started the day with little urchins trying to scratch cars in the Withdean Car Park with useless stewards looking on doing nothing (nice bit of crowd control lads). Took our seats in the NS nearish to the Millwall fans and sorry to say they out sung us easily throughout most of the game.
Whats the point of a scarf day if it ends at 15:02 ??
