Firstly Newcastle aren't as an attractive a match as a top Prem side. Secondly London's only about just over half the distance and thirdly the vast majority of Brighton fans don't give a toss about the Cups (there's thread after thread season after season saying that) so there is NO WAY we would take 6000 to anybody for an early-round midweek League Cup game. Probably not even if the tickets were free.We most likely would of took 5-6k to Chelsea/Arsenal/Spurs tonight not that impressive.
You think that it's painful to many on here that Leeds are a bigger club than Brighton? That's a bit weird.We wouldn't. That is why, despite how painful it is for many on here, they are a bigger club.
Not exactly far to travel though is it.
Leeds have a lot of support throughout the whole of the UK

How many did we take to Spurs a few years ago?
And there were a lot of people who couldn't get tickets as we sold out.It was 6,000.
We wouldn't. That is why, despite how painful it is for many on here, they are a bigger club.
Are people completely forgetting that we took 9,000 to Villa? Not far to go though eh

5000 to spurs, 6500 to Villa, 6000 to Liverpool.

Bollocks. It's a 200 mile round trip, in midweek to watch a football match in a Cup that no one cares about against a team who are at best a mid-ranking premiership side. Taking it all into account relatively speaking it IS a long way and yes I do get out a lot. Your original comment was wrong.
Worth pointing out, again, that those weren't mid-week games. Plus we did consider them to be 'big' games (quite right too, they were). We also took over 30,000 to Cardiff for a match against Bristol City - that's irrelevant too.
I know that. I wasn't making a direct comparison because anyone that does is foolish. Just the same that anyone who suggests Leeds are a bigger club than us just because of the support. They are a bigger club but that is because of their history.It wasn't midweek for a League Cup game though was it? That was for one of the biggest games in our history.
I'm genuinely pleased you'd do that midweek for a League Cup game. The depressing attitude of most is "Don't care, would rather get three points on Saturday"We'll have to disagree then because if we were playing at any club within an hour and a half of me in an evening game I would go and not consider it a long trip.
Still not midweek so still not the same. Also, as I pointed out, we (and I include the players) did consider a match at Anfield to be a big game and worth making special arrangements for. You may call Leeds fans deluded, but they don't consider a match against a team who have only one one trophy in over fifty years to be a 'big' game.liverpool was on a sunday though. I remember countless threads about people worrying about getting back as the trains were a nightmare
plus we could have sold more
