They way we've played all season and in particular the debacle last home game, season ticket holders only. 5000.

I will there wet, cold and waiting to be entertained.

I'm not a season ticket holder due to working for the NHS and I tend to go to mostly away games. The main reason I didn't go as I need every penny this month for obvious reasons. I've chosen to go to the LDV instead next week.

bit of a worry when we are hopefully getting a 20000 seater stadium

the albion dont make it easy for fans to get last minute tickets but surely they could do more to advertise the fact that there are likely to be tickets available to buy on the day from the club shop or by phone

Price, bad results, weather, Christmas. Take your pick it was clearly a combination of all four. I suspect that Port VAle will be a similar sized gate.

It's a shame the club could'nt have given some away free to local schools to fill up the empty seats - who knows they might decide they want to come back in the future ?

First game I've ever missed by taking into account the price of tickets and overall cost, especially having found out how much it is at Colchester for example. I believe therefore that I am a classic example proving the law of diminishing returns.

I know there are a few reasons for the low number there on Saturday, but it is still a poor figure. I don’t really think the number should be dropping below 6,000.

Er, more of a personal hygene problem maybe ?

W have lost 500-1000 fans this season. Lets be honest if an irregular fan went to the Bristol City game they wouldn't want tp go to an Albion game for another 5 years !.

We comprise the 4000 hard core fans on NSC and 3000 people would go even if we were in the Vauxhall conference but we will need to attract an extra 10000 fans when we get Falmer.

People pay £ 20 and want to be entertained.

This is how the debacle of the 2002/2003 pre season and the first three months of that campaign cost us so much more than First division status.

Presumably a lot of the empty seats on Saturday were paid for and were just no shows.

It was not possible to sell a spare on NSC last week and that hasn't happened before.
