The Football League | News | npower League 1 | npower League 1 news | INSIDE BRIGHTON’S NEW HOME

Worth a read as there are one or two snippets in there that I didn't know about... although it could well be that I am just not paying enough attention!

'Flagship Friendly' on saturday 30th july.

Is this the first time we've been given a date for this?

But the special treatment isn't confined only to the fans. A huge home dressing room, rivalling those of Wembley Stadium, awaits the Brighton squad constructed without corners to allow no hiding places.

huh?

Happy, happy days.

No mention of a fans bar

Eh, is this correct?

"Taking shape in one of the UK's most income and educationally deprived areas...."

 

[Ringmer bha]

Have you not been to Falmer? It's very deprived. For instance we have deprived the locals of a field.

Still... they didn't seem to mind...

They are referring to Moulsecoomb , not Falmer.

The roof "will cover up to 22,500 exuberant Albion fans".

So, no tickets for away fans? That'll please FCUM!

Man City , Chelsea or Arsenal ?

Or how about Ajax or PSV for FDM's testimonial

Isn't FDM's testimonial one of the ramp up events in mid July before the big event friendly ? One of the Eredivisie clubs probably.

Great article.

What a truly wonderful ground we will have. Can't wait!

I think that's costing the club about 500k alone. Cutting edge!
