Is he still local?
I sometimes find myself cursing those three ***** out of nowhere. The thought of the wretched cronies holding secret meetings, sneering at the fans, planning their daylight robbery and so on makes me mmmmmmmmad, sir.
I'd like to meet all three of them and ask them why they did what they did. I guess it was not all that uncommon that Chairmen of that era believed themselves to be far superior to the paying fan or certainly a few of them.

The crook may have got 25% of the eventual round-the-houses windfall £ gain,
but time and a preference for off-licences haven't been kind to his health. Hic, hic, hic!

Just to put some figures to him...
In depth news analysis and comment on the battle to build a stadium for Brighton Albion FC at
A month later, we revealed Albion had sold the Goldstone to developer Chartwell for £7.4 million. After research by chief reporter Paul Bracchi and Albion fan Paul Samrah, The Argus also revealed Archer’s controlling shareholding had cost only £56.25, while Greg Stanley’s minority share was £43.75, a total of £100.
Other money injected by Archer and Stanley had been loaned with no personal risk while the value of the ground exceeded the club’s debts.
In another front page exclusive The Argus revealed a £600,000 loan from the Stanley Trust had clocked up £131,250 interest against the club in less than three years while Stanley was due a further £250,000 as Albion had failed to pay the interest on time.

Right, bit of a difficult one here, how many of you if faced with the choice of making 7 million quid , or keeping open a small club that really doesnt mean anything to you would keep the small club open ?

THE GOLDSTONE
And yes Bof,he still lives in East Preston.
Personally I don't think I'd take over a club in the first place if they didn't mean a thing to me. But then I'm not a businessman.
Though I do agree with the sentiment. While football can't really be related to other businesses, if it was just a normal business in that situation, I'm sure most people would take the 7 million without thinking twice.

petty pedantry it might be but after paying liabilities we are taking £1.5 million here,loadsa money for us mere mortals but f*** all compared with the squillions they made out of selling the Focus/wickes empire for shit loads to complete mugs

Well, speaking for myself, I have morals and beliefs. At the age of 18, when I knew everything, money was the most important thing. I quickly matured and realised that money was not the be all and end all. It depends whether you are a sell out or not.
“If you want to feel rich, just count the things you have that money can't buy”
If I ever find myself in the position of making a huge wad of cash, at the cost of depriving thousands of a love/hobby/past time, then I would trust myself to make the right decision.
It might not have been illegal, but it was immoral. At what cost does an extra house or three, and a Bentley or two really mean to you?
To be a good businessman, you don't have to shit on anyone in your path.
What would you have done?

Don't forget that although I believe they sold the Goldstone for £7-8 million, it was only 12 months later it was 'sold' again for +£20 million. I don't doubt for a minute that those two cvnts, Archer & Stanley, had a slice of that pie too, somewhere along the line.

What annoys me is that they were already very wealthy men and the money they made from Albion was pretty small compared to their fortunes and was sheer greed.
Dick Knight had many knockers moaning about his apparent lack of investment yet he never claimed to have money. Stanley could have 'done a Bloom' if he really wanted to.
