You're moving the goalposts somewhat there fella. A few minutes ago you were talking about soul selling to get to the Prem, now you're talking about staying there.

What a waste of time this thread was, then. Good one, DAVE.

I think we'll find it was actually "I fancy that Bozza chap from NSC". And who can blame her?

I don't think Charlton have sold their soul much. Of course, they're in the shit now, but they've had a decent run, haven't they?
I don't think any club, possibly barring the big four, can expect to be in the top flight for ever and ever.

Not at all, you don't reach the Prem just to make up the numbers, you get there to stay there.
What I said is that there is a legitimate fear worth debating that clubs sacrifice their "community" feel in doing so, I'm not particularly wedded to either side of the debate on that matter but what I hate to hear is Brighton fans picked on in a stupid fashion for presenting one side of that legitimate debate. All Liz Costa is doing is putting her side.

You'll be able to see her on Tuesday as well.
Doubtful - Suzie is away which means I'm with Mads for the night. There's no way she'd make it until the end of the game or, if she did, she wouldn't be up until late the next morning and I need to get her to creche so I can get to work.

As I say - you've moved the goalposts. I don't believe any interpretation of "get to the Prem" means a minimum stay of any length. Nomatter though - you're avoiding my question like the proverbial plague and as it was only a point of minor interest, we'll leave it there.

It seems you could be wrong again, if Liz has genuinely miquoted by Dave the Mischief-maker. I certainly fear that I won't ever see the Albion run out for a league game at Old Trafford.

Remarkable that you make such claims without even seeing the article yourself, is there much of a difference between your and Dave's methods?Bozza said:

hang on no i bloody well didnt.
i said if she doesnt want premiership football, then why waste 50 million on a stadium that we dont need if a senior memebr of the supporters club isa happy for second and third division football which we dont need 25,000 for
dont try to twist my words
London Irish said:
Remarkable that I highlight the obvious difference between the following statements...
"I don't want the Albion to play in the Premiership"
and
"I fear I'll never see the Albion play in the Premiership in my lifetime"
If you say so. You are a funny one.

To be fair to Dave I do not think he has got wrong what Liz said. Certainly Harty was taken aback by her comments. She also was less than positive about us getting Falmer because it was Ruth Kelly and said something along the lines of who knows what she will come up with.
It was a fascinating little interview. In no way am I being critical of Liz . She is a superb supporter of the Albion and not the only one who would rather see us doing well in the lower leagues than struggle in the higher. I hasten to add I'm not one of them.

No, it's remarkable that you make sweeping judgments - and now personal remarks - on the basis of any article you haven't read and don't know the content of. But I guess as you've already attacked Liz Costa earlier in the thread just purely on the basis of what Dave said, you have to brazen it out.

Oh FFS
Look...I want to see Brighton and Hove albion playing the best football in the best stadium they can in the best division.
the best division in england is the premiership.
To get there you need A) a fabulous stadium and B money for decent players, C. owners with a reasonable amount of money
At the moment, we have none of those.
Falmer has been sold to us fans as the be and end all of our club, in that, get the ground , attract better players, attract INVESTMENT, ie better money men. Get the oppertunity to get to the Premiership.
Dont try to give me that...Oh Dave doesnt support the club, or mischief making crap becaus its f***ing bollocks.

Don't you understand what those words mean? They're not that difficult are they?
Calm down.
I was merely speculating that if someone reported:
"I fear I'll never see the Albion play in the Premiership in my lifetime"
as:
"I don't want the Albion to play in the Premiership"
then it would be a teeny weeny bit mischievious.
However, if someone reported:
"I don't want the Albion to play in the Premiership"
as:
"I don't want the Albion to play in the Premiership"
then fair enough.
