Who cares I dont, if they had a brand new stadium obviously they would get 20k crowds also.
Who care's its a bit of banter, its the first time that many Albion fans have been able to throw anything back in the face of the gutter crawling scum, we have had to put up with their infantile, illiterate drivel for years, so relax chill out and let those that want to have there fun.
Let the baiting continue

NO El Pres is simply stating facts in light of a large number of Albion fans embarrassing themselves.
They could hardly return last season could they, they wouldn't have fitted into the stadium.Oh yes You are right "Old Brighton Fans Returning to the club" THE SEASON YOU MOVE INTO A NEW STADIUM
You're either fishing, or you're a child who isn't aware of the successful efforts our fans made to save this club.
What's this 2 point gap you talk of? Must be a different team.
We did sell out the Withdean.
You have £15m offers on the table? The only way you could know that is if you were one of the owners. f*** me, it shows how shit Palace are that one of the multi million pound owners chooses to spend his time on a rivals forum.
They don't. It's because of attendances that we always knew Man City could be a big club, and we know Newcastle could do it too. It affects whether our clubs have the money to buy/keep players etc. It's very important for the future of clubs.
Your fans seem obsessed with coming here to claim that our fans are plastic, then you're surprised there's a discussion on attendances. When we didn't have our own ground, so our attendances were low, your fans think it's fine to talk about attendances. But now that we have more fans at games than you, suddenly it's weird to discuss it. If crowd size didn't matter, why are your owners trying so hard to get fans in with kids for a pound etc?
Most Palace fans would like a new ground, and most would like crowds of 20,000. If that happens, all your arguments about plastic fans will suddenly disappear, although they will be more appropriate to your club, because as things stand you have a proper football ground (one that I'd have loved to have for the past 14 years) which your fans can't be bothered to go to.
If Palace win the carling cup, they will, quite rightly, lord it over us. The fact that they haven't won anything as big ever before will be irrelevant. The fact that we haven't had a ground for 14 years, and had an owner intent on destroying our club before that, makes our attendances for the last 20 years fairly irrelevant. As it is, we currently have very good support, and as long as Palace keep claiming it's plastic, we'll keep pointing out it's miles better than their support.

Your 'facts' maybe... not mine buddy.
Sorry mate not mine either. Palace fans have been rubbing our noses in it from every possible angle for years. That's changing now.
WTF? So I guess we shouldn't talk about football results either, because the <lardy da voice>natural ebb and flow of football dictates there will be times in both our clubs history where one will</lardy da voice> beat the other.
Regardless of these threads, if Palace finish above us, we'll be pissed off. If we finish above them, they'll be pissed off. And I wouldn't have it any other way.

I’m sorry but how many times have we averaged over 10,000 in the last 20 years? How many times have we finished above Palace in the same period? These are not points that sit particularly comfortably with me, especially given where I reside but the facts are they have had better attendances than us and placed higher in the leagues than us for an awful long time, playing the attendance card when we have been stuck in footballing wilderness for such a long time is just embarrassing and makes us look desperate.

I think you may have missed my point.
Which was? If it was sarcasm, it was far too subtle.

f*** off and die you inbred ****
What a lovely turn of phrase! Do some of you not realise that this board is a medium in which we may articulate our thoughts about our club. Why are such posts alowed to appear and by so doing advertise the fact we have inbred idiots in our number.

No it makes YOU feel embarrassed and it makes YOU feel we are desperate. What was the capacity in the final years of the Goldstone? Then 2 years at Gillingham and a 90%+ full Withdean stadium for ten years? If that embarrasses you, all well and good, that is your prerogative. But I do not have to, and will not subscribe to your point of view or the Palarse apologist El Pres, simple as that really.

a bit like making a thread out of it , are you really that bothered ?

That’s not my point though, I understand our circumstances restricted our crowds I’m not f*&king stupid. My point is playing the attendance card to Palace is a little rich when (for a whole host of reasons) they have had higher attendances than us, it just makes us look like twats tbh.
You are entitled to your opinion of course, but I just wish fans like yourself conducted themselves with a bit more class. You opinions stir up memories of a family I used to know, never had a pot to piss in, then came into some money and took upon themselves to lord it over people they knew in the area, seemingly forgetting where they had come from, I think this is a fair analogy in this instance.
