If the Boro fans are so nice then why are 95% of them patronising goons on here who can't wait to gloat or pat us on the head ?
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
Will the fans support be the difference between success and failure this season?

Not really but you keep thinking that.
Seems all my negative dribble turns into main stream views after about 4 years,been to 8 games over the past two seasons and had a southern counties game to attend Saturday,i am a Brighton fan but not a lover of modern football and the money involved so happy to pick my games when mates rates applies.The amex seems to have more fans interested in how much beer/food they can stuff down and how early they can leave each game! I have suggested well meant views on whats wrong and how to improve certain things,having said that the current board are doing a fantastic job with so many things but that does not mean a few things could not be improved,pretending all aspects are wonderful won't help tbo.
Which ever way this season pans out its been a fantastic season lets hope it has the dream end
Your club needs you! Get behind the lads over the next few games
Whilst there may certainly be an interesting debate to be had about how the Amex atmosphere can be improved (because there is always room for improvement) there are ways of going about that discussion.
Your trademark snidey sniping at the club and the fans is not the way to do it on NSC - not at the moment. I will have absolutely no hesitation in stopping you posting for as long as is required if you continue. The same applies to a few other well known posters who like to post in a similar vein.
When a lot of Albion fans are feeling short-changed by events in Middlesbrough, and we have queue of Boro, Burnley and Palace fans lining up to take cheap shots, we could do without someone who is supposedly one of our own doing the same. Please stop.
its fact though, success will always bring fans back or create new ones
i am old enough to remember when Chelsea never used to get more than 10k
SWFC have always maintained a good following even when we was at our lowest, but guess what were on our way back

Because the internet attacts goons. The actual REAL people I spoke to were perfectly nice.
I'm not going to tar them all with the same brush just because a few keyboard warriors have lost the use of their eyesight in failing to see that Stephens tackle wasn't even a foul let alone a sending off.

Nope.
21k against Huddersfield, less than 24k against Leeds...you have to admit that is poor!
Our support has been relatively constant for the last 5 years - good seasons and bad seasons. Our support doesn't suddenly increase significantly for a play-off fixture.
There seems to be the suggestion that your attendance will be significantly higher than your average on Friday night. We've all been to Hillsborough and seen the swathes of empty seats.
2015/16
BHAFC - 25,583
SWFC - 22,641
2014/15
BHAFC - 25,649
SWFC 21,997
2013/14
BHAFC - 27,110
SWFC - 21,273
poor based on what ? why as this turned into a attendance debate ?
Thunder Bolt
Silly old bat
A quick check on your official website
Att 18706 in Sept against Fulham
Att 19252 in Dec against Derby
Att 19529 in Dec against Wolves
That's just for starters and remember those teams are nearer to you than us, so you can't blame fewer away fans.
I wasn't turning it into an attendance debate. You said: "friday you will see the 12th man and how it can lift the players
"Having visited Hillsborough and seen the tumbleweeds blow through the stands, I was just curious why you expected the loud following you were suggesting you'd have. I understand now, as you've said that a lot of people are now coming because you are doing well. Thanks for helping me understand.
based on poor away following just like yourselves
you would think tbh we have had no help from refs either at home or away
