I only go there sometimes after home games. I signed the petition because it's exactly the kind of traditional pub that is being decimated. What's your point?

how do we know the future plan, is this info from them or based on other refurbs? my recollection is awkward layout, not sure it would work for a sports bar. i wonder if the community have enquired about buying the freehold?

Up the Albion!
Blimey, if Knocky gets sold off then this happens to the Battle, I fear for us this season.
I have never been in there as I drink in Newhaven or Lewes, but I've heard this pub is very popular with Albion fans.
Reading the opening post this sounds like a decent pub, and I hate sports bars.
I see there is also a thread running to " Save Fletching School ' im not a pupil there but I'm going to sign the petition.
I can tell you. Middle management who haven't done a day's f****** hard work in their life, have a degree in marketing or some b*****x like that
and, worst of all, believe that they understand what people want, when in fact it is the polar opposite. See it all the time - and they are the ones who
walk away at the end, blame someone else or move onto another more highly job to do the same ****.
His point is trolling as it normally is....

I was thinking the same, main reason I don't go there is it's always rammed

Fed up with trains. Sick of the rain.
Signed. Plenty of places with telly nearby. The Battle has always been a decent traditional pub, is usually busy with people enjoying beer and food and chatter.
And yes, that should matter.

Signed and shared ,a top Pub.
I don’t feel you need to; it’s the principle I’m against.

Enterprise will look to give new lease at a higher rent,. that is probably not sustainable, based on the previous success of the pub.

Only been the once as it was part of a FHM recommended pub crawl, I believe it was described as a classic.
Trying to remember the rest as there were at least 12 on the route.
Think 2nd pub was the Caxton arms (I think) opposite the old private shop.
Browns was on the list and was described as “full of young men in untucked Ralph Lauren shirts” (craw was in the early 2,000’s)

Not me. I've drunk in their twice in my life. Still signed though cos' the battle is as a proper old school Btn pub which does not need a 're-brand. It's up there with The Albert, a Brighton institution that does not need 'saving'.
What is your point anyway?
This and have signed. Love pubs like this.

There's a paper petition behind the bar now, tho you might have to ask the landlady to produce it. Almost like she doesn't wish to impose, bless.
