Took 35 fans to Brighton for last night's league game.
Ok, it's their 3rd visit to Withdean this season where the away end has a view of the pitch which is about as good as the view from one of Jupiter's moons.
But even so....
Some of you who frequent other message boards may find this information useful.

God knows what their fans will do if they ever go up where ticket prices will be higher then. In fact, their better off getting relegated if ticket prices are an issue.

Still, £22.50 for third division football is a fucking rip off....

That's less than what Droylsden took to the scum on Sat.....47 think it was.
5live are doing a thing from Whaddon Road next month......its when the festival is on, so combines both sports.
To get in you just e-mail 5live.....the thought did occur that a TEF party could be fun :twisted:

It's a pretty poor turnout, although I've stood amongst numbers not much more than that when we were half decent on some cold midweek evenings.
I don't get the Cheltenham bashing though, if it wasn't for them being non league for so long we'd probably have a few less fans. Can't think of too many more of the the old tradtional non league teams who have come up in the past 15 years who get more than 4000 fans other than Yeovil.
On the pricing issue, if I ever had to pay the prices fans currently fork out for Premiership games in the South, I'd probably become an armchair fan at best. I break into a sweat at the thought of the prices in the two main stands at the CG, let alone £30+
