Fulham fan in peace.

I'm doing some writing on a football based project, and I want to make reference to the famous fans united game in 1997. Can anyone tell me any or all of the following:

- What your average attendance was that season for 'normal' matches?
- What was your attendance for the Fans United game?
- Were there any clubs whose fans were notable in their support of the concept? I read somewhere that some Eintracht Franfurt fans turned up. Was there representation from any clubs who traditionally regard Brighton as the enemy (or who you traditionally regard in that way)?
- If anyone has any quotes from non-Brighton fans who turned up about their motivation, that would be the icing on the cake!

Many thanks for any help you can give on this. Best of luck for the rest of the season.
