have never been to one of these before, but always listen in on the radio...do I just stroll up to the WSL entrance tomorrow? (I have a ticket, booked online but nothing came in the post).

What sorts of questions can we expect? Who might be on the panel? I think this will kick-start my excitement for the new season!

Oscar, Paul Barber and Tony Bloom

What sorts of questions can we expect?

"Question for Mr Bloom. What were the actual reasons Gus Poyet was dismissed?"

"Unfortunately, as I'm sure you'll all understand, such things are confidential, and we can't really talk about that."

"Mr Barber, are you aware that a lot of fans are getting increasingly concerned about the commercialisation of the club?"

"Thank you for your question. Yes, we are always very concious of the need to balance affordability and the fan experience, against the requirement to generate income, in light of the new Financial Fair Play rules."

"Tony, can I just say how grateful we all are for everything you've done."

"Er, thanks"

"For Mr Barber or Mr Bloom. There was a rather unsavoury allegation made about the state of the away dressing room, on the night of the Palace game. Can the club give any more detail of that now?"

"Unfortunately, as I'm sure you'll all understand, such things are confidential, and we can't really talk about that."

"Oscar. Welcome to Brighton. Have you had a chance to explore the town yet?"

"Er, yes. Is very nice. I'm happy"

"Do you think Solly March will be in the England squad for next week's game?"

"Solly is training well. Is a good young player, with some work to improve"

"Will he play at Leeds?"

"He has a chance to train and be involved with the main team. He is training well"

"Will he be captain?"

"Um, no"

"Can I have a photo with you please?"




that kind of stuff.

These things are normally full of idiots asking stupid questions that clearly cannot be answered, such as on transfer targets. It would greatly be appreciated if people would desist, think about it, and ask interesting questions that may get an answer.

well does anyone have any GOOD questions that they'd like asked? I don't mind asking one on someone's behalf if they have something they genuinely think needs to be raised?

Don't forget the usual preamble before ever single question of "I've been a fan for 30 years, etc" :yawn:

and I travelled to every home game at Gillingham.


And if anybody introduces themselves with their NSC name I hope they are chucked out the window

I will be in the Swan pre "match" as normal! I may even buy some Swan cheesy chips (£3 so more expensive) and take them over to the Amex and show them what proper chips are!!!

I was going to ask about the Development Squad/New training ground/Academy status and how the club can make the correct investment so that more players that come through that route end up in the first team. At the moment very few "home" grown players make it to the first team. Is it worth the extra cash they are spending when the pressure is immediate promotion so you end up buying experience and then young players never get the chance.

I will then add I have been a supporter since 1974, went to games at Gillingham, go to most home and away games and more importantly I know Brett AND ErNest but call myself by my real name if thats OK ??
