I'm not sticking up for what the complete cunts on our board have said, because tbh, they're wrong. I've already stated why people are annoyed. The main problem is NSC has the biggest Wanker:User ratio of any website on the internet. But to claim we will get 6000/7000 at Falmer is stupid. How many would Stoke bring in if they were forced to spend two seasons playing home games in Leeds followed by 10 years at the worst ground in English football? Lots of fans have refused to go to Withdean again, if you look at our away attendaces, they are some of the best in our league. The first few years at Falmer will be sells out, nearly every game. Our seaon tickets are selling like crazy, we've sold all of the boxes. We'd get 6000+ in 10 years time even if we were in the conference... I know our fans are acting like c*nts, but please think before you type... You only got that many at the Goldstone (just checked - the last time your attendance hit 5 figures was 26 years ago !) - Falmer will be a good move if, and only if, you are successful on the pitch. I'd put big money on us averaging 15,000+ over the next 5/10 years. We have a f*ck load of potential and sadly, some of our fans have let it get to their heads.

Glad to see a few have shown a bit of common on the Brighton site. A few years ago, when Brighton were at Stoke in the Championships (Think we won 3-0) my lad was the mascot. ALL of the Brighton fans we met that day were superb and Falmer remained a dream for them. Im delighted for all of them that there dream has come to and look forward to us welcoming them at the Britannia. Its a good draw for us as we are at home but they are a very good side on the up and I know that we should give them the utmost repect. It should actually be a very good cup tie (despite what our 'Easies' and their 'pansies' seem to think )

3 of them were bigish teams (Birmingham, Villa, Everton)
Which leaves Bolton,Wigan,Stoke. Out of those three teams you are the best. We would have had a very slim chance against the other two, against you (our bogey team) those chances are even slimmer than slim.
BIRMINGHAM bigger team? on what basis?? crowds ? History ? away followings?? do me a favour pal. They got 16k yesterday and Coventry took 6k. They also got 22k against their biggest rivals Aston Villa the other week.
I know we are not a massive club but to be lumped with Wigan is bollocks and shows you know fuck all about the game.

It couldnt be much better for a prem team with cup aspirations. As for us? We may well be in for a bit of a surprise as Brighton pass the ball around a static midfield of Delap Diao and Whead. Lets hope for a set piece or two

Bigger stadium = more tickets for us. 3. We haven't played them for ages, we have played you in the not to distant past. Be a new ground for most of our fans. Nothing more, nothing less. Calm the fuck down.

Do Brum have a bigger stadium? If they do, it's too bloody big for them, against Villa the crowd they got was 23,000 - for a derby against Villa!!! Pathetic!
