Does anyone happen to know the total amount of games we played at Withdean?

I know for certain that I went to 301 matches there, as I document it (no, really I do!), but I know I missed around a dozen or so matches in our time there.
Maybe the History Man has the stats?

I would have thought there were more than 45 cup games in 12 years. League cup, FA cup, and LDV vans/Johnson’s Paint trophy thingy. Of course some of those were away, but 45 is less than 4 a season for three categories.

The Colin Hawkins match against Stockport sticks in the mind. :mad:

I think the most enjoyable game I saw was a 4-0 win over Blackpool, played on the August bank holiday. The weather was beautiful, Zamora was on fire and it was the start of another promotion season just after getting out of the basement in 2001. Fantastic time.

How many games did anyone get to for our 2 year hiatus at Gillingham?

I had a season ticket for the two seasons and did miss a few midweek games (bad fan) but reckon I got to 18 in the first season and 17 in the second season.

Yep did 100% including the cup games too...remember losing to millwall 1-5 or 6. Jamie Moralee opened the scoring. Loads of London Neanderthals in the main stand giving Keith Dublin serious racist stick with his friends and family sat near by. Only time I have ever experienced racist shit close up and it was disgusting,

Keith Dublin was still playing for us at Gillingham? Must have been his testimonial season!

The youtube footage of Bellotti running away is still remarkable. Game after game, incident after incident, these days the Police, BHCC H&S jobsworths and the EFL would throw the book at a club for that lot.

I think I went to them all, including an 'away' game versus Gillingham, the 1-5 against Millwall in the Freight-Rover Layand-Daf trophy (bitter) when Moralee scored, and the opening game where only the Rainham end was open to 'home' supporters. Living only 20 minutes or so drive away it would have been rude not to. It was the start of my serious bit of actual supporting, 30 years after I went to my first game. Met [MENTION=6886]Bozza[/MENTION] [MENTION=459]Bwian[/MENTION] [MENTION=944]Inkerman[/MENTION] [MENTION=189]Wozza[/MENTION] @papa lazaru @manx gull and numerous others for the first time (in The Cricketers). Emotional

Pretty much all of them for me as well. Lived in Essex at the time so a short jaunt across the Thames
