Let me guess. The ones against show no real understanding of the facts about the proposals and are based purely on information gathered from reading anti-Falmer opinions or make ridiculous suggestions for alternative sites

I know of this great site in the city that as not yet been mentioned. Its on Shorham Road, we will need to knock down a Toys R Us and a few other shops first but cant see that being a problem.

Or just spread the rumour that a new inland state-of-the-art pier is to be built on the site with lottery money. A mysterious fire may then ensue.

A letters page is NOT REPORTING.
The clue is in the title. They're readers' LETTERS. The page reflects those readers who WRITE LETTERS.

AFA Simmons in Hove mentions that Prescott has rejected Falmer, and that the site of The Goldstone Ground is not in the city. True, Falmer isn't in the city, but the stadium site is.
Whoever he/she is (and these diatribes are spectularly close to those of Perseus - who, as we know also doesn't want the stadium at Falmer; if he did he would keep his festering gob shut), he/she clearly doesn't want the stadium in Brighton & Hove. He/she lists Shoreham, Pende, Upper Beeding. What a f***ing moron. It's got to be within the city of Brighton & Hove.
FFS Prescott has approved Falmer. We just have to prove that there is nowhere else. Can it be made clearer?
And if I see one more person who says it should be at Waterhall, I will go and stab someone. THERE IS NO PROSPECT OF A RAILWAY STATION BEING BUILT THERE. NONE.
Aaaaarrrrggghhh!!!
And relax.

Ranting old farts, most of them.
I liked the one which accused all of us, the council AND the Argus of behaving like petulant children.
What, because the Argus (local news for local people), shock, horror, expresses an opinion on an important local issue?

Dwayne told me to tell you that he thinks Waterhall is ideal & Falmer is shite.
You can find him either in China Whites VIP area with Fern Cotton or halfway up Kylie's chimney.

Today's bunch are particularly crackpot especially Mr Barnes who implies that we will be knocking down a whole bunch of listed buildings in order to build our stadium

He is picking up on what Collyer said. Collyer really can't have been paying a great deal of attention at the Inquiry. f*** knows why he mentioned these buildings, and the ones in Stanmer Park.

Is the Falmer stadium site in the city of Brighton and Hove but the village not? Just need to know for sure.

Correct. I think the border is the Falmer Road, but I could be wrong. This is why Brighton & Hove City Council gave planning permission, not Lewes DC or anyone else. Even BHA wouldn't have made such a boo-boo as to try and put the club in Lewes...

Do you know where I might find this officially. I'm writing a letter and don't want to make a prick of myself (not more than usual anyway)
