[north stander]

what a bloody joke.6000 letters.thats just season ticket holders at withdean.whats the point of falmer having 20000 seats when we will never fill them.because that just goes to show how are fan base have noise dived over the years.so get real why falmer......

[The Large One]

Be quiet, northstander.

 

[fatboy]

A lot of people obviously couldn't be bothered.

Even more so when you think many people probably sent multiple letters signed by family members and imaginery friends.


Significantly more people could be bothered when it came to applying for Grimsby tickets.

 

[Lord Bracknell]

So, north stander, tell us ...

Exactly why are you trying to undermine the campaign for Falmer?

 

[north stander]

because its a big risk to take.just look at the state of clubs in the uk with no money.are fan base is not big enough to fill falmer week in and out.the cost are to great.the club will go under in the long term.with or without falmer.......

 

[CHAPPERS]

Shut up you clueless twat.

 

[Highfields Seagull]

If the club will go under with or without Falmer, you may as well piss off now and save yourself the trouble later.

I wonder what your problem is. You must be far too young to remmeber 30000 plus crowds we used to get at The Goldstone.

 

[The Large One]

I said, be quiet, north stander.

If it is a joke then I cannot see the funny side.

There was also a 60,000 signature petition.

A letter takes a lot more effort to write and as someone pointed out, for every letter there is roughly ten people who feel the same way but didn't put pen to paper.

Well they should have done.

If people can't take the time to write a letter that may help the club survive..............GRRR

What a superb avatar you have there Yorkie!

I'm all for free speech and that but....

BAN HIM!

Look at Reading - 4,000 at Elm Park (generally) now at the Egoist Wig Wearing stadium between 12,000 to 16,000.

This club is potentially much bigger than Reading and had three times the crowd when we had equivalent stadiums.

 

[The Large One]

Just looked at his profile, he claims to be 44 next March. The standard of literacy these days - I despair.

I think it's hardly worth responding to this sort of nonsense. But here we go (again) ...

Inevitably with a project as big as Falmer, the Club's finances have come under close scrutiny by independent assessors.

The Business Plan has stood up to that scrutiny. Falmer is viable. We will need crowds of about 12-14,000 to pay for the construction costs and start turning in a profit.

It won't be necessary to "fill Falmer week in week out". The stadium will have capacity for about 50% more than the break-even level that is needed. Big crowds will generate funds for players.

When the Club progresses to the First Division and we are at Falmer, there will be scope for further growth, based upon income exceeding running costs.

What more do you want?

Blood sonny I ask you (not you lb)

and doing nothing is a complete no risk option?. Pillock!

This is al about the future, not about the present. If it was about here and now then we would still be stuck at Gillingham saying how great it was to groundshare

 

[sullyupthewing]

The club will not be sole owners of the stadium,
The stadium is a community stadium and it will be used for other things.
I have kept it simple for you to work out.
