Albion RIP

[El Presidente]

I have sent off a letter to Prescott, but it has done nothing to lift the feeling of utter despondency and depression.

Last season we were playing at, and aspiring to, places stadia such as Derby, Reading, Ipswich etc. All had great facilities and gave us hope.

Trying to be positive and keep the faith, but the gloom is like a cancer, growing and eating me up inside

 

[Gwylan]

Having just read the Seagulls mailing list, I feel slightly less gloomy. Someone reminded us that Prescott, only recently, rejected his inspector's recommendations on animal research labs at Cambridge.

Sorry Prezza has a track record of not rubber-stamping inspectors' findings.

That's what we need Gwylan - HOPE. Let's make this the biggest protest ever. We HAVE to have a march at Wycombe - we have to hit the media over the next few days.

I am fairly sure he went against an inspector's findings last year re an asylum seekers place. The inspector sided with the NIMBY's.

JP seems to take in the bigger political picture.

Keep hoping folks and those who believe PRAY

We're not dead yet.

Well being a football man himself he surely is not this stupid to deprive a city of a football stadium.

 

[El Presidente]

Hopefully being a politician and an unpopular Labour government having two marginal seats might make him think carefully

 

[perth seagull]

Judging by all the posts here it seems that Prescott's office will be flooded with letters over the next few days. Surely this will have some influence on his decision. I don't think all hope is lost...yet.

 

[berkshire seagull]

Can't see any of em being read though

 

[Beeneys gloves]

The worst thing is the players we will lose if Falmer is rejected/delayed for however long, and who could blame them.

Cullip would definitely be out the door, he was quoted recently as saying the new stadium would be a great lift, would be gutting if it didnt happen

Cant see Knight here either as hes ambitious and can play on a bigger stage. Would be a real kick in the teeth for everyone involved, IT CANT HAPPEN

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

i think most people assumed we would get it, which was never the case i did say it would be a closer decision than people made out.

houses or ground is what prescott is thinking

 

[Goring Gull]

Is it me or is it only the actual fans who want the stadium? No one else really seems to give two hoots.

It's a damn shame, that half of Sussex doesn't seem to care reckon more of the County would be up in arms if Man United or Chelsea were being ousted out of a new stadium or something.

why should they?

I look at how easy it's been for Arsenal to get a new stadium approved in London - and it just makes me so depressed with the whole thing.

I'll do a letter tonight, and hopefully the gloom will lift in some way.
