Ground Share Possibility

On the terraces!!
Is there any chance, just until we get a proper ground of our own, that we can ground share with a "local" side which at least has a stadium which can be called a football ground.

Withdean is so depressing and impossible to generate much if any atmosphere (exept Swindon in play offs!!)

At least at another ground either in London, or even Crawley, it would be a proper ground, and maybe further enforce the fact we need a new ground ASAP!

Yeah, lets tour round the south of england for the rest of the season.

Probably won't cost too much and it is not as if we have spent much on Withdean.

How about you volunteer to organise it, should take a few hours.

We could go to Falmer and just play football in the field. Fans could donate money instead of buying tickets. No need for planning permission for some people to play football in a field while passers by stop to look is there?

Given our current home form I would not mind playing all our games away from home.

I trust that some of you can rmember the last time we "ground shared". No matter how bad Withdean is, it's in Brighton, God forbid we ever have to groundshare again, it was awfull.

There is no way we could share in London, crowds would be 4-5000 tops so wed be no better off than Withdean.


Crawley was always the best option for us and easy to get to from all over Sussex, but we were turned down before so no reason why wed be allowed to play there now.

Its also got lots of terracing which would have to be converted.
