Starting to hear more people refer to it as falmer which i think is good as think sponserd stadium names doesnt sound right.it will always be famer to me. What does everybody else like to call the ground falmer or amex?

I mostly call it Amex but sometimes revert to Falmer. I don't mind Amex as they have been a great asset for Brighton and Sussex over the years.

We never called The Goldstone, Old Shoreham Road. Amex is Falmer. Got it Falmer.

Your argument makes absolutely NO sense.

We never called The Goldstone (stadium name) OSR (it's location), therefore we SHOULD ignore 'Amex' (stadium name) in favour of the name of the location?

It makes even less sense that that as the goldstone was both it's location and stadium name.

I've surprised myself by referring to it as the Amex. I think because I love the place so much & still feel like I'm in a dream when I go to matches there the naming almost feels incidental.

Falmer for me, as the sponsored name will change from time to time, and I'd rather have one name for it forever. So, it's Falmer.

Amex for me ever since the stadium was named officially.

Falmer to me represents a long, drawn out battle that saw our club limited to a meagre existence for 10 years longer than necessary thanks to the residents of the village of the damned. The stadium is actually in Brighton isn't it-so why call it Falmer?
