Falmer countdown.

[Caveman]

Just had a great idea.

We could have a clock counting down how many days until we play our first game at Falmer.

Can't believe nobody else has thought of this. Slow on the up take on here some of you.



Can we have a clock please?

It was suggested a couple of years ago, before the date was put back by the extra year. I think somebody even made one, but I can't think what happened to it and it was never embedded into NSC.

Nevertheless, once the countdown reaches less than a year, I think its a great idea!

Can we have a clock please Bozza.

 

[Mendoza]

what does the clock count down too?

First competitive game at Falmer?
First friendly at Falmer?

 

[Everest]

Has to be the start of the season - my birthday

until we know different

 

[Gritt23]

Has to be the first day of next season.

 

[Scoffers]

Do we have a likely date when the main structure of the stadium will be complete (ie, watertight etc). That could be the first main date.

Also, when will the first ramp up event be? Or the first full guided tour?

All these dates will be before the start of the season, of course!

I have one on my google homepage.
This is of no use to anyone other than me.
Carry on.

could even be May 31st when Falmer is handed over to the club...then the stadium is REALLY ours!

The clock can count down, but would we prefer analog or digital?

Could we have a sand clock with Jamie's face on it?

Dandelion clock?

Adrian put one on Countdown to Falmer (Amex) web site, but for some reason, it was problematic so he removed it.
I believe that there is a countdown calendar though!

 

[Caveman]

I think the clock should have Jack Straws face on it, as a tribute to the excellent photo's he has submitted!

So, I think then we need a digital clock as the hands can not be wound backwards on internet clocks, so my source advises.

It should be when the club officially recieves the keys in May.

I've heard exactly the same from a work colleague (not the type to make shit up). His best mate is working on Falmer and says that the general consensus is that it won't be ready for the beginning of the season.

No idea if this is infact true, but worrying that is what it seems a number of the builders think.

Massive fines for the Buckingham group then. There does seem alot of work to do to get it completed by May.

With respect, I think that this info should be taken with a large pinch of salt.
