Something different? Like being owned by a fan, working with local businesses, establishing a new football academy, award-winning community programmes. These are not all the norm at other clubs.

Fortunately, I don't think many people beyond Sussex and the wider Albion diaspora have even really noticed. The sports pages are full of cricket, egg-chasing, tennis, golf and Newcastle, and Wimbledon is just over the horizon, so there's not enough room for goings-on (or not goings-on) at a Championship club. Only fans of Crystal Palace, who seem to need us in order to validate theirn own existence, are paying any attention at all.

Hmm. Recent events at our award-winning community programme bear watching...
We can watch bears there now? I think that's a first for a football club!

I was driving along that way, looking for the furry beasts when I passed a sign in the car park saying 'bear left', so I turned round and went home.

Barber would sack them though!!! (Warning : this is a joke and is not meant to be taken seriously (he would though!))

Not that sad though is it?
Fantastic stadium, 20'000 odd season ticket holders. Multi million pound signings and a new multi million leading training complex on the way.
Poyet did a good job but managers come an go, as for what's going on now it's unfortunate this is being played out in the public eye but these things go on all the time and are messy.
Back the club it's being run by a great chairman and a professional team who are changing the culture internally to a slick business machine which will ensure long term benefits.

Indeed. I'm not sure that NSC has the energy right now to cope with the debate that this might kick off.

Please do tell. Nothing will come as a surprise now.

Yup, this indeed. It may seem to be taking ages, but it'll be over one way or another soon, and we'll move on and pretty much forget it very quickly, and get on with the new manager and new season. Not a particularly proud few weeks, but hardly earth shattering either. Managers come and go, c'est la vie.

For the love of God, outside of the fans of the club, no one is really interested in whats going on at Brighton, to say we are the joke of English football this summer is daft. Get real.

So hope you are right.
I do think that although the club is not doing too well in the PR area to outsiders, there will have been some serious planning going on. If there is to be a new manager, we are probably discussing new players with him now.

Where's that Simon Smith when you need him?
The knives and rope have been put away! It was written at the end of a bad day. I am a glass half full person - honest! Up the Albion!
I would say more often than not your glass is empty as you've drunk it all.

Looking forward to going down this season.
Reduced season ticket prices.
Smaller queues at the bars, stations and bus stops.
Three or four seats to yourself.
Colchester away.

can we all stop being so negative the season hasn't even started yet and if we get the right man and the right players we could have a good season like last season
