I fail to understand the logic behind the comments of Ron Wood (Letters, May 8), which appears to relate the position of the Albion to the number of spectators.
I am under the impression that winning matches is the important issue, which the Albion appear to be almost incapable of.
It was apparent from the start of the 2002/3 season that the Albion were out of their depth.
Even when they played at the old Goldstone ground the attendance seldom exceeded 5,000.
As a schoolboy, I was a regular spectator of the first eleven and second. Historically, Brighton and Hove Albion have never been more than third-division material.
