Never been before but went with my brother on the spur of the moment and, as with all evenings out done on the `cuff it was superb! Match was entertaining in a non-league kind of way, simon rogers can still play cant he, great 2nd goal by the scum, Dick Knight watching from the stands, while we supped 4 pints over the 90 mins, great watching footie with a beer in your hand.
Looked alot more than 315 there, so can only guess a fair few managed to get in as "guests". Had a great laugh, went back to eastbourne after for more beer and curry, great night, better than most fridays! Well done to all.

Press release.
REMF 9 - Smashes through the £ 10000 barrier
The 9th annual Robert Eaton Memorial Trophy match between supporters of Brighton & Hove Albion and Crystal Palace took place at Lewes FC, the Dripping Pan on Friday 30th April.
Ex Albion legend Peter Ward flew over from Florida especially to take place in the match and ex Albion player Ricky Marlowe travelled from Edinburgh to participate for the 9th year running. Simon Rodger who played for both Brighton & Hove Albion and Crystal Palace as a professional played for the Palace supporters.
A keenly fought match was eventually won by Crystal Palace 2-0 which was their first victory in 7 attempts. The Brighton & Hove Albion supporters now lead the games 6-3 with the 10th game due to be played in 2011.
Gareth Glover the Chairman of the REMF said " it was a very successful night with our best crowd since the first game in 2001 of around 400 and the charity raised just over £ 10000 from the night from all manner of fund raising activities. This is the also the highest amount raised since 2001 and the fund goes from strength to strength.
The fund would like to thank everyone who helped, attended or donated to achieve this superb result and we are looking forward to the 10th game in 2011. All Brighton & Hove Albion and Crystal Palace supporters can be very proud of their achievements ".

A CHARITY football match starring Brighton and Hove Albion's greatest ever player raised more than £10,000 for charity.
The annual match-up between Seagulls fans and supporters of their rivals Crystal Palace took place at Lewes FC's Dripping Pan ground on Friday.
And more than 400 supporters attended the game, which is held in memory of Albion fan Robert Eaton, who died in the attack on the World Trade Centre back in 2001.
And star of the show was Albion legend Peter Ward, who jetted in from his Florida home especially for the match. For Seagulls star Ricky Marlowe - who was Mr Eaton's favourite player - journeyed down from Scotland and the Palace team boasted former Eagles and Seagulls star Simon Rodger.
Much to the disappointment of the home fans, Crystal Palace came out on top with a 2v0 win - their first in seven attempts.
But it was the success off the pitch that caused the most celebration. Gate receipts, auctioned shirts, a raffle and player sponsorship saw the night net more than £10,000.
The cash will go to footballing projects aimed at underprivileged youngsters not only here in Sussex, but also in Mr Eaton's adopted home of New York, and in war-torn parts of Africa.

Thats great Richie but my experience certainly of the Argus is that they will give limited word space.

Indeed. But best to send it over almost ready to go in, and then less likely to cut.
Sussex Express are covered as well.

How come over 85 people didn't pay to get in? That's a bit TIGHT isn't it?

Under 16's get in for free.
Just a few bits need to be changed Richie IMO

Don't want to be picky but can we leave this out as the future funding is yet to be decided.
The cash will go to footballing projects aimed at underprivileged youngsters not only here in Sussex, but also in Mr Eaton's adopted home of New York, and in war-torn parts of Africa.

Fine, but not many newspapers will use the phrase WHILST in 21st century England...
Also, you can pretty much do that with ANY story written by ANYONE. It reads fine, the facts are in, and the papers can do what they want with it.

I think that Gareth's original version reads perfectly so, "if it ain't broke, don't fix it".
Just release yours Gareth, job done.

Without being rude, it does not read like a news story, i.e. most interesting angle (the CASH) at the top etc.
I have sent the re-written one out and The Argus and the Sussex Express are using it so hey ho.
The main thing is the amazing result in fundraising terms gets read about.
