Spice things up a bit? I did give you some credit for intelligence albeit I disagreed with your opinions.

It would be the end of BHAFC - not something I could really contemplate
Appeal. We haven't broken any planning laws.

We'd have to or give up the ghost. There wouldn't be any alternative because my opinion is that we'd have a great deal of difficulty getting planning permission anywhere else especially at Sheepcote Valley which has more going for it than the Falmer site.

Assuming there is some sense left in this country, and that luddites do not thrive on keeping Brighton in the dark ages, gives me confidence that a correct decision to allow the Falmer Stadium should be granted.
Assumptions are undermined by doubts, only because good sense does not always prevail.

The club were always going Falmer or bust, however the site does stack up as acceptable as opposed to the others.

How do I feel?
Pissed off. EXTREMELY PISSED OFF.
The Champagne, ice buckets and ice are costing a f***ing FORTUNE.

About the last bit, I'm in agreement and I think a lot of us share varying percentages of optimism.
As for any plan B, I can't see how the club WOULD have any such thing - apart from simply staying at Withdean for a few months ...until the club can be wound up and all players allocated other clubs and bankruptcy declared. We would, for one more season probably die a high-profiled death. Much of the town and even many of the fans might shrug and say "well it was going that way, the club lived on a shoestring and was losing money what else was going to happen under the circumstance?" and the shots that Archer and Bellotti fired into the Albion would finally see the wound open wide and the club bleed out completely to death.
The result would see Brighton turn into a provincial has-been shell, with kids glomming onto Prem clubs as 'their team', lowering pride (even with the city's main asset being loads of proud homos) and more boring shopping on a Saturday afternoon and a stroll down the front to look at the other proud Brighton 'City' asset disintegrating into the sea for centuries. That's plan 'B' I think you'd find.
If we get the right descision, anyone want to come and start digging with me ??

On a pessemistic note, I wonder what will happen if there is a NO.
Would we actually go for a jusicial review as we have supposedly followed all the planning guidlines ( as explained by Ed so well) or would we go back to B&H Authority with a "where next?" request, as it was B&H who suggested falmer in the first place?
Of course, it will be a Yes, but we have been let down before.
