On the ocean wave
It's about 8:30 p.m here in the fjords of Alaska. As I look out of the bridge window I can see salmon jumping & humpback whales blowing. This truly is an area of outstanding natural beauty.

What am I thinking of though? I'm dreaming of a promised land on the outskirts of Brighton. A place called Falmer where the football supporters of Sussex can flock to & watch their heroes in a stadium that they deserve. A monument to each & every one of those people that have been there through the dark days; from a crumbling old Goldstone Ground that we loved & was taken away from us, to the monotonous journey to Gillingham, which was usually miserable on the return home. Now from the years in the laughing stock that is Withdean, we may have what we have prayed for. A home. A stadium to support our team in, of which the whole county can take pride.

I'm wishing for a yes. COME ON! :falmer::falmer::falmer:

10.30 pm here in middle TN. I'm all-a-flutter too.
Can't decide whether to stay up and wait for the news, or get up in the middle of the night to find out!

Watched the '83 Cup Final on the telly yesterday. Couldn't help thinking it could all have been so different if Smith had scored!

Enjoy the day everyone.

Well said. It will be 3 am in my bit of Canada when the Falmer decision is made, but it will be the only thing on my mind. I can't believe that it will be the final word because we have thought that so many times before, but this time it really feels like it could be it. Good luck for tomorrow everyone, time to celebrate! :yahoo::falmer:

Long Sault, actually....
What to do.?

I'm debating whether to stay up and wait for the decision, or to just crash now and wake up in the morning to the good news. Whatever I do has no effect on the outcome, but here's hoping it's a YESSSSSSSSSS.............

Lindfield by the Sea is holidaying with kiddies in Toronto and I know will be tuning in middle of the night to see the outcome. That original inspector was right, this isn't of National importance. It's global.......

Come on, lets hear the 'Yes' Hazel - it's Tuesday morning everyone!!:thumbsup::falmerspi

No, BBC Southern Counties is featuring a special this morning on the decision and promises to go live to BHA FC when the announcement's made if you want to tune in on the net.

FFS, put us out of our misery! It's now 17minutes past 7! e.g. 17 minutes of injury time - who ever heard of that? Postmen are a disgrace.:censored:

Sat here at work just outside Cardiff, doing nothing but checking the net. Fed up with Robbie Fowler and the new Cardiff City stadium being rammed down my throat. Come On!!!
