My first thought reading this was that the late night emails would all be starting in the style of Barry Took’s Points of View:

Why Oh Why Oh Why ….?

That’s not because he cares about fans’ views. It’s to tell people they’re wrong and he’s right.

This, exactly.

Putting that in his pre match message was unnecessary and divisive. We’re told to behave, be positive, get behind the team….maybe he should just try to sound less patronising.

Some of the treatment of fans and employees in the last couple of years has been abysmal. And, if you haven’t read your T&Cs recently, they’re getting more stringent by the season.

Isn’t it the same as fans crying to the club about atmosphere when it’s job ?

That’s up to individuals - if they feel inclined to write to PBOBE about the distinct lack of atmosphere then that’s their choice. No matter how petty I don’t need our CEO to tell me he thinks some of our fans are cretins. He’s using his position to do exactly what they do to him.

Checked my Futbology last night and although I’ve only missed a handful of home games over the last calendar year the last two home wins I’ve seen were Man City and Roma.

7 draws /15 games attended

If anyone wants to pay me not to attend, DM me babe

The fact PBOBE is even writing this in a matchday programme, which is now in the mainstream sports news is bizarre. I don't recall him commenting when Potter made his boo comments. In fact, Potter changed his opinion so quickly I thought PBOBE may of had a word with Potter to play it down.

Surely you just ignore emails from cretins...is PBOBE feeling the pressure? It's a risky business and slippery slope taking fans on directly.

From tonight's programme...

"With a new head coach in Fabian Hurzeler and a number of new signings made in the summer, we have done well to be competing in the upper reaches of the Premier League table for most of the season and we remain very much in the race for European football.

"There will always be bumps in the road in professional sport, even more so in the Premier League given its extremely competitive nature. As a team we've pulled off some big victories already this season – most notably against Manchester City, Manchester United, Tottenham and at Newcastle.

"Such results inevitably lead to an increase in expectations, yet it's important we also maintain some balance. Following our 3-1 defeat at home to Crystal Palace I received a number of (late night) emails full of doom and gloom at our recent form, which really did disappoint me.

"This came at a time when we were just three points behind Manchester City. Of course I understand the frustration, especially when we've just been beaten at home by our biggest rival, but some perspective is also needed, especially when we haven't even reached the halfway stage."

As a Spurs fan PBOBE is well versed in biting your tongue when things go from good to shit.

Its unusual of course since most CEOs in PL clubs couldn't care less what the fans feel or think.

Does this mean we’ll be relegated with them too? :lol:

I will now craft a suitably supportive and understanding email to our CEO to tell him to ignore the ”Disgusted” Brighton supporters who have been writing to him from “from Tunbridge Wells”
