I think you've misunderstood me. I am GENUINELY pleased that kids, even if it's only a few thousand, are turning away from Sky and watching their local team. No sarcasm, or irony. It's why we've got our poster campaign, and also why attendances IN GENERAL outside the top flight are dropping as people turn away from the grass roots of our game.

Obviously I'd rather they weren't watching you lot, but one can't be picky. And of course we have a lot of floating supporters, and unless we go up, we need to pull something out of the bag to bring them back.

Massive success that poster campaign eh? You shifted nearly 9000 season tickets I hear.

Ha ha ha...gonna silence us (too!) then are ya? You really haven't got a clue. Still, your two-bob team & support will find out soon enough.

Shit On The P***ce. :wave:

We will see soon wont we, some of your posters seem to think you make a decent noise, i hope so.

On another subject can anyone tell me anything helpful about parking on the 27th please ?

Answers alluding to caravans, parking at beachy head (right near the front), not affording a car etc and or getting my arse kicked on the way to the ground please keep to yourself, it would just be too boring.

Thanks

So our fans are plastic, yours are floaters. I can see why yours are called that.

The funny thing is, Selhurst was built closer to the 1800's. Sadly for you, yours is brand new...And f***ing wonky. What's that all about?

If you were not such a stupid pikey, you would know why it is this shape. Also the Amex won an international award for design, when did Palace ever win an award?

So your fantastic new shiny stadium that always sells out and is the best thing ever in the world ever..

..Is still smaller than our shitty, wooden seated, falling apart, half filled stadium.

You do try hard, bless ya's.

Here's an idea: Why not just piss off & go pleasure yourself - whilst wildly fantasizing about your shitty, wooden seated, falling apart, half filled stadium? Then you can tell all your Nerdy Nigel chums all about it on BBS or the other one. Our loss will, I'm sure, be very much their gain. :thumbsup:

Not sure how it works for away fans but one of the park and rides is your best option. Home fans need travel vouchers to use these but away fans might just need to show their ticket. Definitely have to arrive early though as they fill up quick

What I don't understand about this whole argument is...

Yes, our attendances are dwindling, but yours were shit at the Withdean too, and before you say the capacity was low, you can't forget that you weren't even selling out most games!

If we got a new ground, our attendances too would rise dramatically, whether that be through floating supporters or plastics, I don't particularly care, so you can't say that you have better support just because this season, in the circumtances, you're getting bigger attendances than us.

Before you lot complain about not going to the Withdean because it was a shit ground, what sort of excuse is that? You sing 'Albion till I die', then you decide not to watch your beloved team play because the grounds got a racing track around it?

So all I'm saying is, yes, I wish that our attendances were better, but I don't really understand why you're making such a big deal over it. Ultimately, we're similarly sized clubs with similar numbers of hardcore support, floating support and, potentially for us at least, new found support.

So, as I understand it, we've sold our allocation of 2,500 and you've sold 9k - who has got the other 10k? Oh I know, it must all those Man Ure, Chelski, Spurs and Arsenal fans who live in and around Brightscum.

Well i'm afraid I am such a 'stupid pikey' (Or actually am I a nerdy Nigel? I think you lot need to sort this out becuase we're getting conflicting personas here and it's all very confusing) so please can you enlighten me as to why your award winning mega super duper stadium is wonky. Thank you.

We certainly will see.

Regarding parking, if I were you I'd either do the Park & Ride off Lewes Rd; find a spot close to the No.25 Bus Route &, errrr, get the bus up & back; or find out where your own support are intending to gather en-masse (Brighton Rail St?) & go up to the ground with them (& possibly a Police escort).
