Falmer??? or Amex??? you decide.......

[seagull_in_malaysia]

How about we get Norman Cook to sponsor it:

The Skint Stadium

 

[fruitnveg]

Yes, yes, but how do you pronounce this Amex? Is it eh-mex or ah-mex?

Surely Ah-mex. AMerican EXpress

 

[Dr. Notthenineo'clocknews]

You need to take a chill pill - it's only a sponsors name

you don't get it, this is just the tip of the iceberg, at what stage would you say enough is enough? "It's only a sponsors name" tell that to the fans of SV Austria Saltzberg who had their name changed to Red Bull Saltzberg, it prompted them to form a new club, Coventry Talbot in the 80's what about that? it's only a sponsors name, Coca Cola and Hove Albion?, it's only a sponsors name.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion of what they call the new stadium.

I will call it the Amex as I think it has a certain gravitas about and almost propels us to big club status again.

It went a little something like this ,

Oh me lads you should have seen us coming, everywhere was blue and white and everyone was running.

All the lads and lasses with all their smiling faces 'coming' down Old Shoreham Road.

To see the Brighton Aces.


Where as the original is

Ah me lads, ye shud only seen us gannin',
We pass'd the foaks upon the road just as they wor stannin';
Thor wes lots o' lads an' lasses there, all wi' smiling faces,
Gawn alang the Scotswood Road, to see the Blaydon Races

i rekon your wrong
.....
all the lads...you should have seen us coming,

[danwa08]

We're talking about the stadium here not the team and as far as I can remember no team has changed it's name to it's sponsor in the English league. Jimmy Hill's attempt to rename Coventry failed and was years ago.

I think you're making a mountain out of mole hill or even a spec of dust !

 

[¤DãŃn¥ §êãGüLL¤]

How come everyone had a spazzy fit about saying THE Withdean yet it's fine to say THE Amex now?

You fuckers

 

[¤DãŃn¥ §êãGüLL¤]

Cos the Amex is not a place, innit.

Withdean Stadium isn't a place either, duzzunit

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

I'm more worried about people who apparently call it 'the football'. It's just 'football' surely. As in 'Are you going to football?'

 

[¤DãŃn¥ §êãGüLL¤]

I'm going to call it THE Falmer now just to piss people orf.
