They do still own it. Bought it in January 2024 for £16.65m. Nice little earner for Mr Bennett.

I feel sorry for the people who have to work out a ROI plan for that pocket of land. Hotel maybe or perhaps housing for non-students. Looks like Farmer Bennett fleeced them good and proper. Shame he can’t pass down all the dosh to his kids now

I would also say that now planning permission has been granted for those ugly student blocks if an application went in for something completely different in the future it would be very difficult to turn down.

I’m still annoyed that the club hotel was turned down adjacent to this site!

Have you not seen the amount of stuff Mitoma fans can fit in one of the see through club shop bags?

At a slight tangent, this morning friends of mine are up early for a safari in the Masai Mara. Another tourist, Japanese, politely asked them where they were from.
As soon as she heard Brighton, she exclaimed Mitoma!

But TB is chairman, not CEO. It’s the CEO who is answerable for the financial performance of the company to the Board. The Board will sign off on budgets and top level plans but they won’t get involved in details.

Do you not think TB would have been involved in the idea and planning? Pretty certain that's not how our club works. Spending £40m is not day to day financials. We all know the loyalty scheme was designed by TB so he is quite a hands on owner.
