Falmer March - Monday 26 September

Well done everyone. The news programs did well too.

 

[We're the Stripes]

I really enjoyed it, had a great time. Also saw McGhee, Dick Knight, Fat Boy Slim, Des Lynam and pretty much all the team. I think we made a difference, and with thousands of Albion fans turning up, I'm sure we sent out the right message.

We want Falmer, we need Falmer!

Well done everyone. The news programs did well too.

Saw a Seaford Massive shirt DD!
No 12 buses were packed. B & H buses must have thought it was
us celebrating them taking over the route!
Great Night out but 10,000, I don't think so.Someone can't count.

Really surprised how many turned out - although I think Sussex Police are being wildly optimistic in estimating 10,000 - I thought the numbers were probably similar to last year, or just slightly more. Sorry the balloons didn't really work - too bloody windy. We did about 150, but then gave up. Really good to see Coppell there - pity Micky didn't show, but then I guess he's got his work cut out with Coventry at the mo.

Safe home to Stevenage by 9.30pm & time for a pint of Harvey's before leaving Brighton. Good to see some of last years faces again. Thought the march was better organised this year & attendance higher. Just hope it's for the final time - good luck for the rest of the season.

Except these bits....

Meridian "Residents of the picturesque village of Falmer where the stadium will be built are less than happy"

South Today "After 4 years of waiting to hear whether the stadium can be built in the village..."

 

[Stinky Kat]

if the police say 10,000 it can justify a few hours extra overtime

That is either lazy journalism or the reports of people who don't like football/football fans and are looking to provide their lopsided 'balance' on the story. Useless, ill-informed twats.

Great march - well done everyone

That really should be NEAR the village surely? How is that field part of the village? What do they ever use it for?
