as someone has already stated we finished 4th in the league.
The last 2 times we won the div,s.
6 weeks after the event is along time to hold it, I sort of feel its de-valuing the parades now, although if we get Falmer there should be one big street party!!!
we had our party at cardiff in front of 30,000 brighton fans!
I will go if only an excuse for an all day piss up!!!
I am worried there will be a really shit turnout, the players won't be interested and we will come out of it looking bad. We had a good party at cardiff and I think it should be left at that. As said above, a couple of times, we weren't champions, we finished fourth. Sorry, have fun if you're going though.
the more i think of it this HAS to be a Falmer related parade as you simply DONT have 4th place/Play Off winners parades, its like Chelsea having a parade for finishing in the Champions League Spot or Torquay having a parade for getting promoted. Its a shit idea and I can see it falling flat on its face UNLESS the club advertise thats its "all in Falmers best interests" then we could see a few thousand people out, but reading on the official site it just seems like a council stint at making themselves look popular.
We have a trophy, the council are willing to stage it (and show the whingers that they are behind the stadium - which in turn will say something to the Government) and the team deserve it.
It's a pity that the Council weren't so quick to celebrate the County Championship that Sussex won last year. That was a huge achievement and I think it's scandalous that the cricketers didn't get to enjoy parading their trophy
I was toying with the idea of coming down for this. However the handbrake cable on my car has just snapped and I can't get it fixed til the 21st, so it is looking unlikely.
Should be a good Sunday,hopefully in the morning then all back to Trotsters for a BBQ in the afternoon and plenty of beer to celebrate,just in time to start planning for next season.
