    Nearly 29,000 at Brighton yesterday, around 26500 at Leeds v Derby

    Yes, it is down to lack of success on the pitch over the generations. Brighton have a huge support despite the players on the pitch and not (unlike many clubs) because of the players. If we ever did get a half decent side that finished top half of the top flight then that would be interesting...

    Nearly 29,000 at Brighton yesterday, around 26500 at Leeds v Derby

    Bu did get over 30,000 in the third division and in the second division and take very large away following to many places, including over 3000 to places like Chesterfield. El P really, have a look at attendances of all clubs in the 1980's. Newcastle getting 9500 for Oxford at home, Arsenal down...

    Nearly 29,000 at Brighton yesterday, around 26500 at Leeds v Derby

    Could be! I think its because the team has pretty much always been rubbish and so we are off their radar. Its also a great press cliche that uses up some air time to talk about the football hotbed of Sunderland or the giants that are Leeds. Its more an inconvenient fact that Brighton have a big...

    Point is that if it were any other club but Brighton, say Sunderland or Leeds for example who managed to pull a 29000 crowd for a Championship relegation scrap in November then the press would be on and on and on and on about what wonderful loyal fans they have. But as its Brighton, well as...

    Instead of saying things you know are untrue, why don't you celebrate the albions support. 29000 for a championship relegation scrap, and icy gull calls that fickle! God knows what he would call other clubs! Really el p open your eyes, if only we had a team to match the support. I know it hurts...

    Nearly 29,000 at Brighton yesterday, around 26500 at Leeds v Derby

    If Leeds had got 29000 for a championship relegation scrap then how many times do you think the press would have mentioned it? As usual the press have ignored it as it happened at the Albion. Northern bias or just more evidence that the press dont understand the Albion because we have never been...

    Run along, there is nothing nuts about celebrating our fabulous support, now this is about the Albion, not your shower of plastic drum bangers.

    You may not be old enough to remember the last time the Albion were on its feet. The Albion were the 11th best supported club in the country in the 70s, hooliganism of the 80s, crowds dropped everywhere and it was not until a few seasons ago when the "civil war" Archer legacy at the Albion had...

    Not sure how old you are but have you heard of the small issue of brighton in the lower leagues,losing the ground, protests, boycotts, pitch invasions, playing 140 miles away from home, when palace are swanning around in the top flight ect ect. It must be terrible to have to try and think up...

    But the "biggest game of the day" according to the BBC with two "giants" was of course Leeds. Much bigger club Leeds and Derby, its just they get smaller crowds despite being higher in the table :bowdown::bowdown: to the Albion faithful.
