Idea To Commemorate The Last Game At The Goldstone On April 26, 1997

[Mendoza]

Rotting outside hospitality apparently

i used to look after it and take it to away games, maybe its time to start it again

sad to hear about its decline

Does Hove Park still have gateposts? Could tie the giant flag there for the morning. After getting it washed at the flag-wash place by Hove station. Obviously.

How are we going to get that on the train?

Also we have enough trouble getting our 12' flag out of the grounds, imagine being in charge of the giant flag....

but with the remf flag anyone good at getting on roofs with heavy scarfs

I think we should go to David Neighbour's beach hut and start a commemorative fight.

 

[Buzzer]

How about as a serious suggestion - black armbands?

 

[Muhammed - I’m hard - Bruce Lee]

a scarf day

 

[portlock seagull]

We could win a match?

i think the 90 mins silence is a good idea but just a bit too long. why not a 10 mins silence (a minute per year). aswell as the black armbands to be worn by players.

Something needs to be done at the retail park, and it needs to be original, legal, and able to attract some positive PR for the Falmer process.

Either that all we all turn up in the stripes, lay down in the road and block people from getting into the retail park.

*remembers, sigh*

:thud:

So we've established that something at/next to the site of the old ground needs to be done.

Well, it's a start......

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

why not a 10 mins silence

80 minutes less than usual at Withdean then

 

[Hydro Driven]

What about the srowd speeling out Lewes CC will never kill us, 10 years and counting! You know like how Liverpool did for the Arsenal FA Cup game?

 

[Springal]

how about laying flowers at the goldstone, loads of falmer banners etc and then a minutes silence at withers!

 

[Soton Seagull]

I agree with those who say something legal at Goldstone retail park. Reclaim the land!

 

[Deleted User X18H]

woudln't it be better and more appropriate to march from Old Shoreham Road (the actual goldstone monument) to the Withdean.......just a thought

Or Withdean to Falmer after the game.

I like that idea - this date should not go unnoticed.

10 F**KING YEARS- It's a joke - you can build a Nuclear Power Plant quicker in this counrty than a new Community Football Stadium on a ploughed field next a main road, a railway line and some crappy 1960s buildings.

Let's have some decent, sensible suggestions as to what we can do to mark this date.

 

[Withdean Wanderer]

Whatever it is, it needs to be slightly different the marches on the seafront, and it needs to be BIG.

Some sort of Memorial meet at the Goldstone would be pretty emotional, which would be good in the sense that it would convey the message that a ten year wait is RIDICULOUS. Maybe with some speeches from key figures back in 1997 (e.g the likes of Steve Gritt or whoever is available?), and key figures now?

However, is there someway FALMER can be fitted in as well?
