This season have been very poor, I think only Leeds have sold their whole allocation ?

Under 2000 Charlton yesterday. Thought they would of sold out.

The top away crowd always seems to be Leeds. Must prove something.

I suspect the go once as new attitude has kicked in.

Also a lot of fans have had a long way to travel this season

Before we criticise too much, how does the average away attendence at the Amex compare to our average away following this season?

I would think that a fair amount of potential away fans come on here before we play them and learn:

The atmosphere is crap.
We play negative sideways football.
The beer runs out.
The food runs out.
The transport is terrible.

And thnk twice.

Its alright, Wolves are back next season (if we don't go up!),they will fill it.Always remember them bringing a load to the Goldstone in the 80s and 90s.

But most of that simply isn't true. The atmosphere compares well (very well) to most away grounds I've visited.

The footie, well maybe.

Beer and food, an enormous success story for the Albion.

The transport, better than some places I've been with 5000 crowds.

The transport is very good given only one station is used, why people moan about it is beyond me

Miles from ANYWHERE. Expensive. Plastic/Soulless.

I probably wouldn't make a habit of coming here if I were an away fan.

Must be fishing. How many away games have you made this year? Every ground I visit makes me appreciate the Amex even more.

Leeds - but not the dirty bit

£33 - £6.70 for return train travel from h Heath . That's under £27, probably less than a lot of other championship clubs ?

The inclusive transport is irrelevant for most people travelling from outside the area. No real difference in cost of rail travel to HH or Brighton
Remove the free travel and make make match tickets more comparable to other away venues

I was a bad fan yesterday as I had to leave early :wrong:. I was on the bus turning into the Falmer Road as the third goal went in. The roar made me jump out my seat.

Whereas Husty's just a bellend who doesn't go to games.
