One says 21000, another says 23000, but either way it's impressive. Tell them they should stop living in the past. Happy baiting: http://www.worthingherald.co.uk/sport/football/brighton-hove-albion/albion-season-ticket-sales-top-23-000-1-3958953...

The thrust of his argument seems to be that the NHS sometimes makes mistakes ergo it is a crock of shit. Oh and too many brown people were allowed to be involved.

There are two emails quoted in my post. The first one we got does indeed state pies are included. The more recent (the first one in my post) makes no mention of pies, but indicates we get two courses with cake. I cannot see any mention of pies in the latest email. I was simply pointing out the...

Yeah I noticed that. I think it's probably a mistake though. This is from the latest email: Platinum package includes: (For Chelsea and all league matches) Three-course meal with tea and coffee prior to the match Half-time cakes with tea and coffee Full-time cake with tea and...

Mrs Mutu is quite easy on the eye.

I guess it's subject to demand, but all those locations appear in the list of pick up points for Seagulls Travel for the forthcoming season: http://www.ekmpowershop18.com/ekmps/shops/stagedoor/201213-travel-season-ticket-covering-23-home-league-games-242-p.asp

I don't think it's especially relevant what the drivers of population growth are. My father was a Charlton supporter until he moved to Brighton in 1958 and then he switched to watching Brighton. People can and do change allegiances. And even if the parents don't change children are fickle. Get...

I am not sure anyone is suggesting we should expand it before we see if we can fill a 30,000 stadium on a regular basis. I think the point is everyone's expectations have been vastly exceeded in terms of support and it's reasonable to wonder what our limits are if we do continue to sell out...

Times move on. Looking at the past can be a reasonable guide to what can happen in the future, but I don't think we should be a slave to it. I think it's perfectly possible that we could, in the near future, achieve much bigger crowds than 30,000 on a regular basis if we had a stadium large...

But part of the problem is that Falmer can only take 7 cars. So for 8 car trains they have to have SDO. This means that it takes longer than it could to fill an 8 car train and also that the 8th car is rarely full. To me it makes sense from an operational POV to lengthen the platform by 20m to...

One of the supporting documents for the planning application, a letter from Southern Rail contained this: "As you may be aware further discussions are taking place between Network Rail and BHAFC regarding some minor amendments to the platforms at Falmer Station including, increasing the...

The development of St George's Park and the recent changes voted through by the FA can only help, but as others have pointed out, this will take time. The frustrating thing is why has it taken us to cotton on to the sort of changes needed that have were implemented in other countries years ago...

Took us about 2 hours, but that was in 2007. Maybe things have improved.

ESPN are 80% owned by Disney. They can afford to run it at a loss and I am sure will do so if they think it still has a part to play in their long term strategy.

It's played with a smaller heavier ball to encourage control and short accurate passing. Very popular youth development tool for Johnny Foreigners. It's relative absence from this country and the fact that England haven't come close to winning anything for 46 years are probably not coincidental.

Did you actually have any Harveys HT? I just saw you with Red Stripe. Me like barmaid. She nice.

I definitely think we should seriously consider it once the contract finishes as clearly Azure enjoys profits that could otherwise go to team strengthening etc. It would be crazy not to think about it. All the criticism that has been levelled at Azure, an established company that specialises in...

I think that would have been a big mistake. The deal with Azure gives us a guranteed huge sum every year for 5 years. To branch out from day one into mass catering, given all the training, recruitment, supply needs and expertise involved would have been a step too far. The catering operation...

I've always thought that Rounder Records clientele is more "North Laine" than "The Lanes" so possibly a shrewd move. I'd guess the rents are cheaper too.

As you take an interest in the accounts then this excellent blog might interest you: The Swiss Ramble: Brighton and Hove Albion It only goes up to 2009, but does demonstrate that the last season at Withdean was atypical from an expenditure point of view (presumably a lot of costs were stadium...
