I took my mate to the 1901 game I went to, he's a die hard Gooner of over 50 years. Anyway, he said the fish and chips at the Emirates costs £13. I think catering at away grounds may get a right beating on here.
Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
How would promotion change our club long term?

Not off me it won't, I had a burger at Maine Rd in 1989 and possibly a pie or something at Barnet in the late 90,s other than that in 40 years of going to the match, caterers haven't had a penny off me (Except for Beer at The Amex)

I guess the good thing about Arsenal, and Tottenham, you're not far from Green Lanes and proper Cypriot food at very low prices (I sound like an advert!
)

And further that there are conditions in contracts to cover the eventuality of relegation - eg. your contracted salary will reduce to Y from X but we will allow you to leave for the appropriate offer etc. !

Do I recall that there is some issue to improve them if in the PL ?

Be nice if they served that in 1901 too...I'd probably buy one.
Every pundit will suddenly have an opinion on your team; how it plays, how it should play, which players "aren't that kind of lad", which players "have that in their locker". All based on nothing but a cursory glance at the team sheet and a gut feeling. Research is unmanly, I guess? You'll be called plucky, brave, honest, unless you start very well and then you're a "breath of fresh air, shaking things up".
Opposition fans will either patronise you or if they're one of a raft of mediocre parochial sides with nowt to play for after December, they'll try and stir some kind of faux rivalry with you (Swansea are good for this).
Some teams riches put them so far ahead of you that they'll turn up, not play particularly well and just steam roller you. Man United look like this is their schtick at the minute. Other teams are genuinely a joy to watch live. I know we did the double over them last season, but I managed to catch Spurs a couple of times outside those fixtures and, honestly, they were electric. Liverpool and Man City play some lovely stuff too. But there's few things better than derailing a "big" clubs push for Europe/title. We've done it a couple of times, but last year was hilarious. Here we are, a terrible side, populated by has beens, never was and never will bes already relegated for the second time in 7yrs. Spurs are playing great football, full of exciting young players, going for 2nd place and finishing above Arsenal for the first time in... well I don't know how long. And we go ahead and smash them 5-1
Think every Geordie will be happy to see Hughton get promoted and few would begrudge him the title.
Nice post - thanks!
It's posts like these that mean that I don't vote for an away end on NSC...

Seriously?? If we hold on to the current management and back room staff as well as the wonderful Mr Bloom I can see BHA becoming a top club. Everything is geared up for this so lets see. Biggest change? Surprising the f**k out of the bedwetters and finishing top 6.

So wrong. Tell them you have a ticket and are picking it up at the stadium and to meet you there an hour before KO. Turn off your phone and go have a beer with your Brighton mates in the concourse. Job done.
