There were certainly a lot - I wonder what the 'real' attendance was?

What really gets me is why so many people leave early when 2-2 with 5 minutes extra time - baffling

Silly old bat
We have a lot of fans who live some distance away who cannot make mid week or evening games. It's also half term when some families will have been away on holiday. They've still paid for their season tickets but not actually gone to the match.

Let people parking the two large estates next to the ground and it wouldnt happen. Force people to stand in a line to then get a bus to another part of Brighton to then get to their car and people will leave early. The punter is always right. Dont blame them at all.

I know it's there own choice but I could not believe the amount of people leaving early... 2-2 with 5 minutes added time and a game which actually looks like we could score at any time..

I reckon there was a good 4k who missed CMS' second half goal

What really gets me is that people shit themselves on a 25k attendance, actually it doesn't get me, makes me laugh... we won't fill our stadium until we are in the 'promised land'. 21k was perfect for us as we stand, expansion will be brilliant when we are ready.

I started to make my way from my seat towards the exit, just as the board went up for added time. This is the same process I go through every evening game in order to actually make it home.

Before anyone trots out the 'wouldn't leave a film before the end' or 'wouldn't finish a book before the last chapter' bollocks, I'm sure people would do either of those things if failure to do so meant not getting home!

Obviously If you need to leave early to catch the last train home thats understandable but I just don't get how and why anyone would want to leave early in a game like tonights just to get home 30 minutes earlier..

Agreed. If I lived in Brighton or the surrounding area, there is no way that I would be leaving early.
