Premiership clubs who sent letters in support of Falmer

[burrish-gull]

Pretty sure Chelsea FC were the only one who refused to send a letter of supporrt to Prescott at the time (correct me if I'm wrong). Some of us have long memories

Both Ferguson and Wenger sent personal letters I seem to remember

Chelski probably worried we would nick some of their loyal fanbase.

 

[burrish-gull]

They point blank refused, just ironic its them we've given the best part of the ground to and giving them a guard of honour, can't help but feel slightly let down by BHA over this, but money and prestige seem to have taken over.

Another reason why I am happy I sold my ticket.

Guard of Honour my arse.

What like you are now and will continue to be... pathetic excuse of a club....

I agree. Although it means waiting a bit longer for my Amex fix, I'm certainly not sad that I'm missing the Chelsea love in this afternoon.

It's Gus's mate rather than BHA.

Guys it's a great friendly to have, why the bitterness and spite. Good grief, if you aren't going stop moaning, if you are just enjoy our first senior game at the Amex today. I swear to God we have some of the most miserable supporters in the country. What is there not to like about today? Seeing the expansion in your own eyes, pie and pint, meeting back up with mates and fellow supporters and the European Champs as opposition. I'm going to be so depressed at the Amex today!!!

Palace are shit now with no crowds must be all your plastic fans going up the road to Chelsea. Build a new stadium and I'm sure they'll come back, oh just remembered your not building one

Sounds like hearsay, along with the 'fact' that Crawley refused to groundshare with us, or that Mark Lawrenson refused to support the campaign for Falmer stadium...

Seriously, what evidence do you have?

Seems chasing Belotti out of the directors box in 1996 has allowed a plastic Chelski fan to sit in my seat and who's club did'nt give a stuff about our plight, oh well I suppose that's what you call progress

Good for you. I hope you enjoy it, really I do.

Not for me though, the guard of honour is just too much.

 

[Thunder Bolt]

Maybe my memory is different but I thought the only club who didn't help was that Croydump lot or was that the flowers to Prescott?

Ask Insider pretty sure he'll give the answer!

I cannot remember whether they did or didn’t send a letter of support. But I know back in the day there was a c10 pages of such letters in an Albion match day programme.

Move on.

The club has.

Quite obviously
