Of course! Honestly, this Premier League thing just keeps giving. There keeps being an extra "bonus" that I hadn't previously thought about. Whether it's that our players are suddenly included in Fantasy Football, or the sudden interest in a Premier league sticker album, and now games being covered on 5 Live - listening to Brighton games while driving in my car! Ruddy marvellous.

Sweet :) I probably should have clarified that I meant the BBC Sussex coverage. Past few phones I have owned have had FM radio built in but my new phone doesn't. Just wondering whether I will need to sign up to Seagulls World or not.

Yeah, I thought you did. I'm not Sussex-based though, and you can't listen across the Internet because Seagulls World have a monopoly over that. So, I only get radio coverage if 5 Live ever appear interested. next season, that could happen a lot more, as we are either being moved to a live slot when we are the only game on, or it's probably about a 1 in 3 shot at 3pm on most Saturdays.

Big one for me is the fact that 100% of our games will be streamed live, so will be able to watch every single away game, should you do such things...

My daughter lives in Fratton.
If there hasn't been a stream on the web, she has listened to it on the BBC Sussex channel on Freeview.

Ok I get you're not going to like that I am an AFCB supporter but thought I'd share some of the pleasant surprises you get for being at the top table.

- MOTD, obviously
- Extended match highlights on Sky, that night and on demand.
- Free local radio commentary every match from the club website (This is new for us this coming season, hope you get the same deal).
- Goals on Sunday
- Decent reports in national rags


Not so pleasant surprises
- Maximum 3,000 away tickets, even Old Trafford
- Games moved with a few weeks notice to Monday night, Sunday lunctime, etc. No way of booking advanced travel and accomodation without risking the game being moved.
- Being patronised by people from Surrey that are life long United, Arsenal, Liverpool, ... fans
- Big clubs complaining about fixture congestion and injuries, whilst having a squad of 25 internationals, as being the reason you beat them.
- Everyone thinks you have bought or cheated your way to a decent league finish because you are only little and can't have done it any other way (Sorry, couldn't help myself).


Overall though it is bloomin' marvelous. Enjoy next season.
