Alex Crook reported today there is a lot of interest in Joel although he believes Brighton’s stance is he’s not for sale and they see him as big part of the clubs future.
Hang on - is he calling all fans individually now because I haven't received a call? I need to be reassured on all manner of things. What have I done wrong - Joel OUT!

I know someone as you know and he reckons he's absolutely shitehouse at putting things in the fridge properly, especially has major issues with securing the new type of bottle tops,so as Lola would say he's not quite a Messy yet but getting there.
He’s only calling super fans, so it might be that
No I had a really bizarre thing happen at the Fulham game, went into the stadium as normal, up to my season ticket seat to find someone sat there, compared the tickets and sure enough it was exactly the same as mine, so somehow they’d double sold my seat and yet we both got access to the stadium.
The stewards were great, took all the details and said they get someone to look into it whilst finding the chap another seat close by.
Then sure enough a call from Joel to let me know they were looking into it, and to reassure me they hadn’t resold my seat deliberately.
A bizarre situation but the club have dealt with it pretty well to be fair.
He normally covers when Tony or Paul are too busy to call me.

You do realise that Boehly reads this column. He'll be on gardening leave soon.
Apparently Chelsea, we said we wanted £80m, but they held out for £90m

With all today's vomit inducing hullabaloo surely Joel is going to hold out for the supporter services gig at United's ' Circus of Dreams ' . Although the lack of a free lunch could be a sticking point!

Another shout out to Joel from here as well, he's always been really helpful when I ask stupid questions. As has Olivia P. & Katie. I can imagine then drawing straws to see who has to answer my emails.

Great that the club have seen this thread and our fans showing their appreciation for our great staff. Paul Barber and his PA (Olivia I think) are also very kind and helpful I have to say.
While it’s gratifying to hear that Joel is handling the fallout well, and kudos to him, it’s pretty disturbing that the club’s systems allow them to sell a season ticket seat in a way that isn’t “deliberate”.He’s only calling super fans, so it might be that

Surely someone must have over ridden a system warning that said ‘umm, you sure? You do realise that seat has already been sold, don’t you?’ If such a warning doesn’t come up, then that’s a pretty major flaw! Allowing a human to override such a warning is, err, weird, isn’t it?

No! He's my cousin, I am Spartacus.
Yeah it’s really strange, they also miss sold my mates seat next to me but the system stopped him entering !
He was eventually given another seat and the stewards sorted it all out in the end !
It’s all a bit of a mystery but I’m sure they’ll look into it, although it must have been a lucky omen, so I hope it happens again at the next game
