I read that March and Veltman are in the Hove Park area, and Knockaert was there when he played for us. I think the club have a few apartments down at the Marina, but I believe a contractual understanding is that a player should be within 20 mins commute of the training ground
Veltman is very near Hove lagoon and I’ve seen March walking his dog in Hove Park a few times.

Actually know where Gross lives as while walking the dog I was stood outside the house having a lottery daydream about living there. And then he pulled up and went inside. I must have looked like a weirdo or stalker just stood there staring at his house.

They don’t . 2 live in Withdean rd ,at least 4 live in Hove, one lives in Hurstpierpoint
You see the joke - in the loosest sense of the word - was twofold.

On one level it was a little poke at those who live in East Worthing and Lancing, hence ending with "poor bastards" (poor as in unfortunate not fiscally).
2 areas of the West Sussex coast which are hanging onto aspects of what Sussex used to be, to put it kindly.
It's rather route one but in fairness a route the natives can lean into.
That in itself explains why I placed the location of the joke from Lancing to the west.
Had I encompassed all the surrounding area I'd have needed to include Shoreham, at which point the joke doesn't work, as Shore Ham has sold it's soul for Town House wannabe Londoners.

Secondly, and in reference to the quoted post, it was a critique on the traffic we all become and sit in, every day.
Because of all the 3 car families, Chelsea tractors/wankpanzers, making 2 miles journeys filling the roads of gentrified Sussex.
To live within 20 minute commute of Lancing the only places you can actually live are those about a 15 minute walk from the training ground.



Oh well, it wasn't really that funny when I posted and it seems to be even less funny now

Veltman lives at Adele's old place - unless he's moved recently. I think most of the players and high-paid staff live in Hove - very busy round there.
Yeah, didn’t want to give an exact location to give him some privacy! Though he’s posted enough on his social media to work that out.

Potter (sorry for swearing) rented a nice place near BHASVIC, from our GP. Not sure if he bought it in the end?

A minute’s walk from Shane Duffy’s former home in Radinden Manor Road.

Our NS neighbour lives in a flat I think in Eaton Road, he says Ulloa lived in the block and has kept the place as an investment.

Duffy lived at the top of Woodland Drive. Potter between new church road and the seafront

Not starting the thread at all would’ve given them a lot more privacy. Appreciate you’re a young lad judging by your posts (not a dig - you can’t help your age) but at times like this you’ve gotta stick to the “XYZ give me your shirt signs” rather than worrying about where folk live.

In my defence I did start it about 5 years ago and did say I wasn’t after road names in the very first post.
