Yes, I was just thinking the exact same thing. Probably best to just drop this whole subject and never raise it again until the stadium is done. If FPC and Lewes start worrying about these sorts of possible plans, theyd probably ramp up their efforts and delay things further. In fact, Ive...

I could never admit to that. Probably the biggest factor is I've been gone from Brighton for over 10 years and the geography got mixed up. Next someone will chime in and tell me theres a 40,000 seat staduim in Newhaven!

How are you getting it on TV in Seattle? Is it on Fox Soccer Channel?

Let's just get the bloody bull dozers out there fast -- hopefully that will shut them up. :thumbsup:

Thanks!

I stand corrected. And I certainly won't make excuses such as, I was in a typing frenzy and typed "West" instead of "East". Lucky bastards too. They got to replace The Dell with a 32,000 seat staduim in the city centre. And its a UEFA 4-Star job. PLUS, theyve hosted these games (from Wiki)...

ok - ta.

Where did you get this info from? The reason I asked my original question is that south of London and west of Portsmouth there are no really European class staduims. Its such a large and important geographical area -- and very close to France -- that Im thinking it could be used in important...

A complete and utter TWAT Roy Keane walked out on his own country in the 2002 world cup. Why should anyone be surprised by him quitting Sunderland? He's a quitter, a loser, and I for one am glad I dont have to listen to his shit anymore during the premier league highlights show.:clap2:

I used to knick all kids of stuff from the woolies on Blatch Road. Got caught once too: they took us home to talk to our parents about it but that was about it. Well, I was only 10!

I completely understand. My dad never took me. Well, he did once but left me there! Anyway, several of us neighbourhood kids local to the Goldstone would get together and bunk in behind the South stand area. But, being in the North stand was golden (of course). Especially during the late...

Archer's got a wiki page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Archer_(businessman)

Nice. Thanks. That will work. Christ, still gotta put up with Withdean for a while :tosser:

Boozing logistics? What about the logistical concerns regarding boozing before the game? At the Goldstone one could (I was too you at the time) have a few bevs in several pubs in walking distance (I can count 5 without trying). How are we going to do that at Falmer? I think I only went there...

Oh right, ta. I'm not familiar with that area. Never strayed too far from Hove. And since then Ive been over 'ere in the colonies.

Yes, you are right--of course Falmer station. But its still no Goldstone with a main train station, and a multitude of bus routes. Interestingly, I found this on Univ Susses site: Q: Will Falmer station be redeveloped to cope with all the fans arriving by train? A: The plans involve a number...

Hi there, I was wondering if during the planning process any consideration was given to future expansion of the stadium at Falmer. E.g. to become a EUFA Elite stadium and host big games, the main criteria is 30,000 seats. Just wondering if the architects had built in some easy upgrade options...

Ha ha! I love it! My mum was always complaining at being pinned into the house (we live within spitting distance of Hove station) for 20 Saturdays each year! Along with all the graffiti along our street, piss smell everwhere (especially around the steps over the railway bridge and down to the...

I suppose with the digging cermony coming up at Falmer I have this on my mind: What I guess I'm trying to straighten out is if there is a definitive answer to these questions: Lets forget about Archer et. all. and try and focus on realistic choices. 1. Would it have been viable to stay at...

Were the bogs ever upgraded? The last game I saw there in the late 80's the bogs were still basically 4 walls with a trough around it and no roof. Not that that was a problem, but honestly the whole place was becoming a bit of a dump. Of course, I miss it too. Walked past there every day on...
