Just been reading through some comments from last night's game and just thought I would put a quick post up.
The new stadium you guys have is amazing very impressed however there were a few few minor things that didn't help and they probably attributed to some of the points in the Leeds hooligan thread.
There was no staff attacked in the away end there was a bit of shouting from one bloke because he had been queuing 20 mins got to the front to be told he couldn't have a beer. Same happened to me fortunately my life doesn't revolve round having a beer so settled for a water but I understand the guys frustration. The staff were appallingly slow and unorganised in getting people served. I'd say it's the only thing at Elland road we trump you at; the staff can turn round a queue.
The transport situation after the game was absolutely appalling. I was on my own and not on the official coaches. I took one look at the train queue and decided against it. To the bloke who was complaining bout the Leeds fans pushing on to the train I can't say I blame them, up north we just pack on as many as we can and it will have been a long frustrating day for many with the problems with the trains from london. The fault with that problem lies with the transport provider. I can guarantee most Brighton fans would probably tried to have packed on as well.
Also don't allow the odd morons to cloud your vision of the fans overall. Your lot have your share of morons. Many in the west stand were gesticulating towards our lot and trying to rile us. Also walking back alone I am glad I had no colours on because I was surrounded by 1,000s of Brighton who were giving it some, to the point I decided it would be prudent to get a taxi.
Overall though the Brighton fans I met were great and have had good chats with them over the last day. Think the game was a fair result. We out played and out sung you in first half vice versa for second. Was surprised o
Poyet didn't give vincente more of a run out.
Cheers anyway
