On a more serious note.
What if the loyalists can't get a seat at Falmer because the new fans buy all the best tickets?
Ther'll be trouble then I tell ee' look at all the shit we had about West Ham tickets going to the part timers and bandwagoners...
All the bonhommie will go then.

Im thinking about forming a 'new fans alliance' - maybe use my corporate contacts to buy out most of the North Stand tickets for my mates Tarquin and Charles and campaign for goal music and foam supporters hands......

Apologies !
Anyway, back to the original question....dont think there is anything wrong with asking it and I'm sure we all welcome all 'new' fans. Imagine the influx is due to a genuine belief that things are looking good for a change. Better football, stadium on the way, godsend of a chairman - who wouldnt want to get involved !

Don't wait for me!
I've been to 3 or 4 albion matches a season for the past 5 years. I was a Premiership club armchair supporter for 25 years but I finally made the permanent switch to a Seagull last season and am loving it. Better late than never.

Indeed.
I have fielded all the comments about being an Albion supporter...especially here in Essex...usually a mixture of amusement and homophobia but also some respect for passionate support at our lowly level.
The most common theme has actually been interest, my little lad goes to little kickers on Saturday mornings in his little Albion strip among all the West Ham and Spurs kits.
The amount of other Dads who have come up to us and chatted about the Albion, how we're doing, how the stadiums going etc. etc....well, its really amazing.
We're well liked you know, people remember that we were once a serious force in the game...and we will be again no doubt. The only real pricks I meet up here are the Chelsea ones..thankfully in a massive minority in these parts...what utter f***ing knobs they are. Ignorant twats, all on the bandwagon with no tradition and no respect.
I'm called "Brighton Nick" in my local pub and have lots of good banter with the happy hammers therein.
I love the Albion. I really really love the Albion.

Not a new supporter and been popping into the Withdean from time to time, but now got a season ticket for obvious reasons. I had promised myself never to go to a home game until we had a home of our own one more, following the closure of the Goldstone, but felt I was cutting my nose off to spite my face. Previously followed the Albion on many away ventures, but now its time to put the feet under the Withdean carpet for the first and last time.
I am new to NSC though and I decided to subscribe following a chat with colleagues on Saturday after the MK Dons game. Seems a good way of keeping up to date with things and off gassing when it seems appropriate.

I so happe to be moving back to the UK in summer 2011 so I'll definately be getting to a lot more games (won't be living in sussex though, so no ST).
I was wondering if people might get the impression I'm one of these glory-hunter falmer fans if I tell them I've started going to a lot more matches next season.
I was involved in some of the Falmer campaigning (albeit from far away at times
) and have supported the Albion for many, many years, so its just a coincidence that I'll be at more games last year 
A very nice one may I add (padded seats? )

I would'nt think anyone will notice tbh.
On that glorious first day at Falmer, it'll be a new beginning for everyone.
This thread has garnered more PM's to me from newbies and old timers than anything else I have ever posted (8 so far) all of them just wanting to be mates.
Pretty touching.
No more Newbie baiting from me.
