Nope, your spot on, although I haven't read relocating to Horsham (even though we have to stay within a radius of Brighton of which half is in the sea, so it would be impossible anyway) before.
I think he's got a point actually. Why stop at Horsham, Milton Keynes anyone?
My take on this issue is that Dick Knight has done a fantastic job but what if Leon had gone to QPR having made exactly the same offer as he did? Would everyone still be lavishing praise or would it be all doom and gloom. It's a fine line and a fickle world.

DK has made mistakes, but haven't we all?
On the whole he has served us well and protected the interests of the club. Rather that than still have Archer and Bellotti in charge.

If LK had decided on QPR, then he'd be a QPR player and we'd be looking at the position as 'still open' just as we had before any of us had even heard of the player before he came to Brighton.
These days there are a lot of players available to the market, it's the matter of locating the ones with talent and potential that's important.
As for fg's drivel, it's nonsense as always. BHA silly to play in Brighton ? ? I can see us all trecking to Haywards Heath for home games to make it convenient for small village and farm residents, that would be smart ! I'm happy that he wastes his time on long drivel though, 'keeps him off the streets and serves to underline the sensibility of the sensible supporter.

Agree with LB...Ecovert £30k a match = £700k a season, add onto that £40K a week on players and a couple of million for the enquiry all based on crowds of 6.5K a game, some dickheads out there clearly didn't do too well in their maths GCSE this week
I really do despair sometimes with all the Dick Knight knockers. At the risk of going over what is now probably well trodden ground, I think DK has done a great job for the club, we all know the situation that we were in only a few years ago. For someone to take a risk and come into this club when we were on our knees and manage to turn the club round in very few years (hey we even had a spell in the first division) is a remarkable achievement, something which very few people would be able to emulate.
Added to this DK is a fantastic leader for the club, on the few occasions that I have met him he has always had time to answer any question posed to him. For ill informed people to turn round and start criticising him without knowing the full facts and reasons for his actions is just pathetic. Yes I do think he made a mistake in appointing MH but at the time he had a few problems of his own. I can’t think of any other mistake he has made during his spell at the club, his choice of managers, apart from MH has been excellent and could hardly be bettered. We are so close now to getting the stadium that we all want, mainly through the hard work of DK and his colleagues, he deserves the loyalty of the clubs fans.
All the doubters should just be ignored; we all know that a certain individual that posts on this site has his own agenda, so why pamper to his needs? My stance on the stadium has not changed, we will get the stadium and I will be the first to sit on my brand spanking new seat in my brand spanking new stadium.

Funny how Potless finds the cash for Knight when he knew if he went elsewhere his neck would be on the block.
Anyway before you make him Saint Dick I'd wait and see if he finds the 48million for Falmer.
The shrewd people know he hasn't 48p and the day Prescott gives us the yes he will fill his underpants in fright as then everyone will see him for what he is and no way will he deliver Falmer.

For FG's benefit I've looked into my chrystal ball and seen young Leon score the winner at Albion's first home game at Falmer.

Well I laid down the gauntlet to FG and he didn't let me down - neither did E Blocker Ernie.
I really cannot think of what more these two want bar a Chelski situation - come on you two a challenge.
Tell me what you think DK is doing wrong and how we should go forward as clearly our recent success is not good enough for the pair of you.
Over to you boys...or girls ?

All you people who own a house, answer me this...E Block Ernie said:
When you first bought property, which of the following statements best described your situation?
A. "I had a few hundred thousand pounds burning a hole in my pocket";
B. "I seemed to be a reasonable credit risk and the property didn't look it would fall down".
Moral:-
You don't need to have a fortune in the bank to buy a house.
You don't need £48 million in the bank to build a football stadium.
Got it, Ernie?

I bet it won't take Sam the Man 8 years to build their new ground. It's taken us so long as Potless is a small man with small money full of bullshit.
Wait and see and when he cannot get the funding for Falmer you won't be so happy with the old man then.
There is more chance of Lord Lucan riding Shergar on the pitch at half time on Monday then us ever playing at Falmer.

Cardiff's stadium will be financed by a massive retail complex! Not an option for us so can't see the point in that statement!

My first post on here and its having a go at our own supporters - I say supporters, I mean supposed supporters.
When I say supposed supporters, I mean people who would rather knock there own club, at every turn.

Step up FG and E Block - 2 people who MUST have lied, when they confirmed in this forums sign up process they were over 13.
