About 3 years. So sadly you will have to put up with Withdean for a few more years.

I'm sure a season or two into Falmer (fingers crossed) they'll be "The best thing about Withdean" threads, where we can all look back through rose-tinted glasses about how wonderful Withdean was...
Or maybe not!

The best thing about Withdean is that you can walk up and down the running track before the game, and at half time, meeting people and chatting - in a way that you NEVER can at other grounds.
This only applies in the South Stand, obviously.

The best thing about Withdean....
.....was that we won 2 Championships and a play-off final in the relatively short time we were tennants there.
An incredible achievment really when yoiu look back at it. Most clubs (including us previously) go decades without a taste of that sort of success.

...so based on our progress, level of success during recent years and the law of averages, we must be due a European trophy before we leave for Falmer.

The best thing about Withdean was Rocketman

The best thing about Withdean......
was when we were marching up the leagues, and sitting there on a warm summers or spring day, and we were bound to win. Zamora cracking them in. The stamping of the feet when we have a corner, and Rocketman (seconded)

Sorry Withdean is a souless arena not worth of proffessional sport in Brighton. I shan't miss it. I celebrated some great parts of the Albions history here and watched some albion legends don the stripes on the pitch, but if we'd have been @ the goldstone or Falmer those moments would have been better.
Only plus point to Withdean...it's in Brighton (where we belong) and not Gillingham.

The best thing about Withdean is that you can pick blackberries on your way to the turnstiles.
How many other grounds can you do that at?
