Was he though? More likely standing on the balcony outside his parents house, behind the Chicken Run.

Is the amex too small?

Yes, I could clearly see that, and was both amazed and disappointed. Ok, fair enough, the good folk of 1901 are paying a lot of dosh and it is their right not to turn up, but it did seem very strange. Might it have been a block booking and a coach broke down, for example? If this sounds fanciful, then fair enough, but it seemed very odd how one block like that could be empty.
If they had a very simple webpage where you logged in with your fan number and said you weren't going so your seat could be resold it could work. Especially if there was some financial reward for doing so like you got £20 credit for shop or food.

Or just as likely spending all his time in the gents urinals behind the chicken run breathing in the emanating smell.

is your walletsaturday's gate of 29,469 was bigger than watford v hull, west brom v man city, c****** p***** v liverpool, and stoke v swansea this week.
So i think a capacity of 31,000 seems pretty spot on, and with everything else about the club, including the training facility, we're "premiership" ready!

Not seen such Bravery!
No, the Amex is just right, unless the North Stand can be expanded.
Would rather 31,000 packed in than everyone rattling around a larger stadium with areas shut off for certain games.

As the club had confirmed in March that season ticket prices were not going up if we went up, and as away ticket prices in the Prem are capped, so significantly LOWER than in this division, how 'premiership ready' does his wallet need to be?

Surely you've got the wrong man officer?

Christ you're a miserable dullard.
I'm not 'taken in' by what's on offer at the Amex, thanks. I am very much 'taken with' it. Different things.
Perfectly content with the value of the tickets I pay for, willingly. No sleight of hand. No 'taking in'.
Why are you even posting here, on a Brighton supporters' site?

Up the Albion!
not for me mate , I'LL WATCH IT DOWN THE PUB

Which pub though? Especially should that lot come to town again. I hear Polegate or the Volly in Lewes are their chosen RV points.
There will undoubtedly be increases in some areas - certainly one-off tickets (though there won't be many available). For most the costs will not significantly increase*. Ticket revenue is such a small part of a Prem club's income, that there is simply no need to piss off your fan-base with hikes.
Those that travel away will enjoy the REDUCTION in ticket prices.
*except that 4 less home games = a 'per match' increase

Glad to see you're not naive enough to be taken in by 2nd place in the championship, a goalkeeper who can put 60 yard balls on a sixpence, best defensive pairing in decades, an absolute Albion legend with the captain's armband, incredible selection of central midfielders, probably only matched by our wide player selection, putting 5 past one of the favourites, a manager who is admired by 90% of people in the game.
Glad to see you're not being taken in by any of that rubbish

Details, details. Sorry Rev forgot it was yours. ( What do you call an elevated garden with a fence around the edge?)
