[Albion] Reimburse Albion fans at Luton

[Psychobilly freakout]

So should we offer to pay double when we have an extremely good result?
It’s not about a ‘fan code of honour’ , it’s about being a grown up and taking the rough with the smooth.

I’d pay double if we beat Palace 5-0


just putting it out there.

If I wanted a decent result every time I'd watch Marvel films (except the one where they all die before coming back to life).

Football can be great because sometimes it's really shit.

Come on, people are just reacting to shock/stress, ridiculous to suggest that. Everyones entitled to their opinion, I said what the OP said earlier on the match thread, but since realise it is a bit daft, we all say stupid things when pissed off, but to suggest that is snobbery at it's finest and not looking at the bigger picture of our fans reactions tonight.

It's not snobbery from me.
This is just Albionlife.

Sure the parameters have changed but at our core this is us and if you don't understand that - well you know the rest!!!


Still at least we can bounce back on Saturday with our 1-1 game v palace.

Your a plumber, you screw up, you wipe some cash off the customers bill. This impacts ability to pay the mortgage if lucky enough to have one.
Fans in the scheme of things are paying customers to the club, it's commercial, all about the money. They've been delivered a shit service tonight. Here's a few beers lads, means sod all to me, it's small change.
I'd right a good review for a theatre if good and a bad review if bad, this is a bad review.
Maybe I'm looking at it too much from a finance angle. Wasted cash for those that went, but hey ho, my view and clearly not others.
Please no one else support my view point, I will take the arrows.
If only we all thought the same way in society.

Peace out....

No, keep your view, it's the whole point of a forum and I see where you are coming from and did agree earlier to realise that actually, we win some and lose some, sometimes, BADLY. Part of the product we pay for, but I wouldn't oppose the club reimbursing fans.

No, obviously. You’re not making any sense. I’m merely saying the players could, as many players of many other clubs have done so before now, because they’re multi millionnaires and it would be a nice gesture. If you’re too ‘grown up’ ( ) to accept then fair enough. I’m sure many others wouldn’t say no in the circumstances tonight. That is all.

It’s therapeutic as well, knowing we are still somewhat the same old Albion, always ready to surprise, elate and depress you all within sometimes 90 minutes never mind a season.

im still immensely impressed with how the season has gone, still in two cups ok in the league, with all our injuries and jaded players playing out of position or even playing when they are not first choice.

happy Albion fan here

I know it's Albionlife, it's why supporting us is such a rollercoaster and why my life is centred around BHA. I wouldn't change it for the world. 16+ years of this up and down fun, but to suggest that it means I am not an Albion fan for saying 'refund the fans', is bloody daft.

 

[Cotton Socks]

That reminds me of when we lost 7-0 at Huddersfield. The motorways home had roadworks with lots of junctions closed. It took over 6 hours to get home. It happens.

That must've been really adding insult to injury.

 

[Beanstalk]

I've seen clubs (well players) reimburse fans after woeful performance.
Tonight's game has been truly awful.
It would be a nice gesture if these millionaires were to reimburse those far more loyal than me the cost of their ticket and expenses.
An apology at the very least, they should be embarrassed.
The fans get behind the team week in week out, spending hard earned money, now to give something back!
Perhaps the bonding session should be somewhere the working man can afford next year.

Hahaha yes it was dreadful. I’d prefer an off night in this glorious patch than a season of mediocre dross.

Write off tonight and win on Saturday.

I think we won the next game, so maybe just maybe…..

A refund for tonight?

It's a pipe dream.

It's a pipe dream.

I’m just going to let the result washer over me.

We disagree - which obviously is fine.

I (and I'm sure you as well) would much rather have a response on Saturday over a token gesture tomorrow.

It'll probably take a while before this sink's in.

 

[Cotton Socks]

What a load of shite.
We’re Brighton and Hove Albion ffs, reality checks needed.

My Jnr said something along the lines of 'We should be beating teams like Luton'. I kicked him up the bum, told him not to be so disrespectful to Luton, sent him to bed with no dinner & he'll be getting another stern talking to in the morning!!

News at Ten breaking news just now:
"National Grid are to divert extra capacity to southern England tomorrow in response to an expected extra thousand more washer-dryers at home and in launderettes switching on."

Thanks. To be fair, going back to the Goldstone and Gillingam days, the thought never crossed my mind.
It is the crazy money it football, and fact working folk are struggling.
I guess I'm looking it into the context of affordability & don't accept the silly money these guys earn and there should be some giving back.
I've gone from the right to the left as I've got older and wiser.
Thanks for the comment.
