How many new fans do you know with Season Tickets?

[Brighton M]

Just out of interest, are we likely to see more old Albion fans coming back, or if the 18,000 is likely to be made up mainly of the usual contingent and 13,000 newbies who follow Chelsea etc.

(Note: I don't have a problem with new supporters)

For the sake of this poll, a new fan/JCL is a follower of another team who hasn't watched the Albion before now.

I know 1 - a West Ham fan who fancied watching regular football.

You?

 

[Brighton M]

Well i've cocked the poll up - no option for 0!

[Steve Foster]

I know of 7.

None of whom have had a season ticket in the past & between them went to no more than a handful of games in a season

 

[Monsieur Le Plonk]

6 mates of mine that have not previously been season ticket holders have shipped in a total of 11 season tickets. Let's just hope they all turn up.....

5 - A whole family, all Man U fans (although all born and bred in Brighton).

Oh, and another bloke who's wife bought him one as a birthday present but who used to have a ST at the Goldstone - does he count ?

 

[bomber130]

None but like me

 

[bomber130]

sorry hit return button in error. None but I do think alot have now come back given we have a home of our own. I for one used to get to as many games as possible when I was in the Air Force but after going to Withdean in shorts and t-shirt in blazing sun and by 3pm was chucking it down it put me right off im afraid.

 

[Was not Was]

None

 

[generation x]

3 Brighton based West Ham Fans. Also aware of a few Corporate 1901s who will have trouble working out which team is which. ' I went to the Goldstone a couple of times....' etc.

 

[Martinf]

Just to balance this out. I know of three. All are Albion through and through. All attended games at the Goldstone, Gills and Withers. I don't buy this thousands and thousands of new STHs who have had absolutely no association with the stripes before bollocks.
