*on tenterhooks*

I don’t have time to read a 10 page reply

I went once this season and twice last season but I was at both York City home games in that one season way back when, so can I have a smartie please?

The club is now giving out "digital trophies" to fans, as per https://www.brightonandhovealbion.com/news/3532647/your-season-in-numbers-explained

basically you are a better fan if you are able to attend all honme and away matches. The blurb says : "Which Seagull trophy you receive will be based on your match attendance and dedication to Albion throughout the 2022/23 Premier League season, giving you the ultimate bragging rights to share on Twitter!"

• Diamond Seagull: Attended 35+ Premier League matches throughout 2022/23
• Gold Seagull: Attended 25+ Premier League matches throughout 2022/23
• Silver Seagull: Attended 15+ Premier League matches throughout 2022/23
• Bronze Seagull: Attended 5+ Premier League matches throughout 2022/23

I dont like this, its one thing showing you your stats but to rank fans in this way is a bit naff. Lots of people are dedicated fans but simply cant afford to attend all matches. Id say a fan attending 10 matvches who lives 150 miles away is as dedicated or more so than one (like me) living a mile and a half from the stadium

Im sure before long there will be cries of Oh I am a diamond Seagull I should get preference over a mere Silver Seagul for Euro tickets

All a bit "tin pot" to me

I wouldnt worry about it. Its just a bit of marketing.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Why is it based on Premier League only?

I sincerely hope that those who went to Stoke and Middlesborough receive a suitable award regardless of Prem games attended

 

[BNthree]

Great to see I’m a better fan than most. You plebs should try harder.

 

[Jeremiah]

I'm f***ing platinum. I attended everything. Twice.

That's only because you always get thrown out at half time !

 

[Psychobilly freakout]

Not a mention about going to Gillingham?

I try and forget about it to be honest.

 

[Ike and Tina Burner]

Why do they not count cup games exactly?

 

[Nitram]

Blimey I’ve just worked out that I travelled an average of 183 miles to each of the away games I attended.

Don’t know if I should come clean and say I didn’t see all the passes and missed an occasional goal due to over consumption and toilet breaks. I might have my status demoted!

That's me,... 11 matches living 190 miles from the Amex.

Meh - I travelled an average of 10,500 miles to each of the away games I attended last season.

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

I'm not even bronze

• Tin Seagull

 

[Krafty]

What is the reasoning for this?

Is it something to do with ticket sales, etc?

 

[Muzzman]

Silver Seagull…

… makes me sound 80 years old, do I get any concessions?

 

[doogie004]

Did everyone else have their trophy hand-delivered by Paul Barber earlier today as well?

Poor soul Bloom
Delivered mine

 

[Nitram]

Meh - I travelled an average of 10,500 miles to each of the away games I attended last season.

And there was me worrying about getting a knock on the door from Greta, I’m feeling better now.

 

[doogie004]

This will be the new system for awarding Europa league tickets for away matches

 

[One Teddy Maybank]

Inaccurate for us…..

 

[Rookie]

Are people genuinely upset about a imaginary trophy via an email?!?

 

[zefarelly]

I hate this shit.

none of us are fans, we're customers of an increasingly corporate business.
