Personally think the atmosphere has got worse because of some of the crap songs that are sang. Just as the atmosphere gets going a dull droaning song only sang by the HF. Noticed last night the Arthur singing a few of the older songs at the same time the Holmsdale were singing something else. In the final year of the Championship the atmosphere was brilliant has been on the decline ever since.
Blaming the announcer is the kind of thing you expect from Brighton fans.

Completely agree. The new announcer is terrible. The previous chap was so much better

Exactly.

On the whole, up until now, the fans have kept the faith and been surprisingly tolerant of what has been served up in the last year. However, last night we saw a feeble and spineless performance and it was not surprising that the team were jeered off at half-time.

At the end I came away feeling strangely dispassionate and detached. If we had fought and battled throughout that match I might have felt some emotion at the end but in reality I departde Selhurst with an empty "oh well" feeling. I mean, for heavens sake, we didn't even put Swansea under any pressure during the 5 minutes of added time allowing them to keep possession in our half.

That performance sucked. If a team fails to show passion and fervour then that team has no right to expect passion and fervour from the fans.

Exactly my feelings. At the end I remarked to my neighbour that I'm now so accustomed to losing (and deserving to lose) that I hardly care. Terrible thing to say after 60+ years of supporting them. I'm not upset, just numb.

I'm slightly concerned that this may, at best, sound like irony and, at worst, sarcasm.

Can you hear the Brighton sing? I can't hear a ******* thing!

The fans and the announcer are not to blame, the players are.
