Sounds like you're going soft...or just getting old!Withdean South Stand in poncho’s to the lounge was a big leap
Hopefully he swerved them okay, sounds like there was a weight advantage.
1991 ? Isn't that when Palace was first formed ?

Or 1661, according to Palace themselves.

Were the northerners arrested? We must be the softest club in the land to allow away fans to swing punches at our own in our stands. Surely being an away fan in a home stand is enough to eject ‘em never mind starting a fight. Hope they’re in a cell tonight, with Big Hilda for company…
Isn’t it part of the uniquely DK/TB thing of being the friendliest club in the land to away fans?

Yep. I’ve done my time in the NS at the Goldstone in rain and snow, Gillingham, Withdean and scrambling through a solid mass of people for half time drinks and toilets at the Amex.Nor do I, lots of long time Brighton fans, not all corporate hanger-ons.
We sit with fans that also did 83 cup final, Hereford, Gillingham, Withdean etc….

I’m done.
I901 lounges for me from now on where I can go to the loo and sit down with a drink in the warm without the long queues.
You take your drinks with you into the loo? Noooooooooooooo….

It’s very nice in our lounge and can confirm it’s not mainly corporate types, it’s fans like me who treated ourselves after sitting in the wet at Withdean. It’s actually not a lot more expensive than best seats in the west when you take into account free car parking and programme. Now if we could get Sodexo to employ staff that know that Harvey’s beer is different to Harvey’s Bristol cream, then it would be perfect.
Unless you’re a horse.

I use the Focus Lounge if they are available but they are all much the same - I was paying around £80 for good seats in the W anyway or having to use the disability seats more and more over the past 12 months so as you say, for the additional easy access issues, the upgrade (for me) it’s worth it. I do miss the noise and buzz though that you don’t get in the lounge seats - a big part of that aspect of the match experience has gone for me now. I used to be rather more focal than I feel I can be in the 1901 but maybe that’s just me?

Hey we are all different, and it's whatever floats your boat as far as l'm concerned.
And as for being different, that's true of Brighton more than anywhere else!

I saw a bloke once take a pint into the loo and try to balance it on top of the urinal's....
