I am sure we can speak to the stewards (Bottom of Tongdean) on saturday and see what they reported.. I can't see any reason why they wouldn't either report it.. They have a duty of care, and this was serious incident which breached the Road Traffic Act.
Also such incident have to be recorded...
There was definately 2 there... and a supervisor up a little as well.
I just don't think the 2 chaps at the bottom were to blame, okay yeah they should of held the driver, but from your own post in Ask the Club, the driver had already driven into the barrier, so surely its better to just let...
My worse fear about this site is they will find some old roman relics or similar.... I take it they have checked this site already....
It would be the first time a major site has been shut down because of archaeologists.
How will it effect sponsorship and of course Falmer.. Does the club not get extra money from the FA depending on what league they are in...
Yeah it would be good to see Brighton at Wembley.. :ascarf: - Not sure if it will happen...

I feel sorry for everyone involved. Both Fans and Stewards..

So why didn't they stop him.... !!! ??? !!! You all seem to be giving somebody who was at the bottom of the road shit, when the guys by Mahatten Court should have stopped him.....
And you think he was gonna stop at the Barrier, several people said he drove into it.
As I said above, nobody...
He is there to stop cars entering tongdean lane from London Road, not ones that should have been stopped by the flats.... I saw at least 3 stewards standing by them with their hands in their pockets.
And you are telling me that you would have jumped in front of that car..... So why didn't you...
What right have you to comment on what somebody looks like.. That is pretty unfair.....
This car should have been stopped at the flats. And if they didn't move the metal barrier that idiot would have driven thru it and that could have caused other problems.
NB: I for one will be glad when...
It was a Black BMW .. Reg T1 BUB....
With regards to the stewards at the bottom of the hill, they both do a thankless job and the times I have spoken to them have always been helpful and do stop cars coming into Tongdean Lane once there is a steady flow of people coming down.. I know they have...
