I would say that Tony Bloom either continues backing the club or he will sell. How many clubs are making money in the Championship and not in the same position as Brighton?

Worrying that football has gone this way.
Well said.
Tony has said he'll be chairman of BHAFC for many more years. So that means he's prepared to budget for the annual loss I reckon.
And massive thanks to Tony for that.

Yep and with that, Eaglejez should stop worrying about Brighton and return to worrying about the Parish statement, that should Palace be relegated, there is no doubt they will return to the huge debts that they had when he purchased the club. So relegation this season and a couple of seasons parachute payments then back to the same old Palace, me thinks.

Put a bet on then, because evidently you know something the bookies don't (just like last season.)
And with the supposed '200 million' long gone, with nothing to show for it except some funky cladding
and shiny new gates :guitar:

Oh please take comfort in what the bookies say mate, I think they have been badly wrong about you in the last two seasons. Lets hope they are wrong again.

We don't need to take comfort in anything except the quality of our playing staff. We finished 11th last season and we've only strengthened the squad - we'll be absolutely fine

Serious question. You don't think that was down to the manager?

It had a lot to do with Pulis. He galvanized the squad and got them working for each other, that hasn't gone away. We were very unfortunate to lose to Arsenal away from home and we deserved much more than a point against Newcastle.

Aj and Doyle? yes I can see the strengthening you speak of.

I notice there is no mention of West Ham at home?

AJ is a player coach and Doyle is Murray's replacement as 4th/5th choice striker.
By strengthening I meant replacing Gabbidon with Hangeland, KG with James McArthur, Jerome with Campbell, Moxey with Fryers, Parr with Martin Kelly, bringing back Wilfried, etc.
Because we didn't deserve anything from West Ham at home. We got outplayed by a side who have just signed some fantastic technical players, why would I mention it when I'm highlighting my reasons for being confident?
As always when we have these wonderful conversations, please remember that our Premier League adventure ensures that we've pocketed a minimum of £180MILLION at your expense. Thanks.
I wasn't coming on here necessarily and I stay off NSC because of, well, the way it has become and lets face it post like yours. I signed up over 10 years ago and the banter used to be pretty good but its pretty vicious now and banter nearby impossible. The fault on that score could probably also be laid at the BBS's door which has increased it proportion of newby posters who dish it out but can't take it but there are a few good Brighton posters that hold their own on there (even Londoner et al who come on and troll do ok and are legends on there !).
I got 'banned' a couple of years ago for posting a wind up video, which was fair enough, but Bozza reinstated me but I hardly ever post on here anymore since even trying to have grown up discussions get totally taken the wrong way (after one of my posts someone tried to make fun of my son who got run over and was in a coma !). Obviously there'll be masses of abuse for saying NSC has got too precious but it really has !! I think deep down the oldies know this.
Anyway, for those who can actually see past the red and blue mist if you read my posts on this and that BBS thread I'm not saying Brighton are facing a financial meltdown. All I'm saying is that there's absolutely no info anywhere regarding the Administration & Operational costs. All I'm saying is that if these really are effectively fixed then Brighton are going to keep making losses that need funding. Hopefully the Club are on top of them and the YE14 accounts will show them at a much lower level so everything will be ok. If they aren't then its near impossible to make profits without massive player transfer profits.
In summary - I'm not saying you are doomed
(ps - I really do know more than the sq root of fuk all

Really! Not much more than us about the finances of the club.
That makes any meaningful discussion about it pointless.

You make a big deal about us not knowing the detail of things, but thats how the club works. We know what we need to know. You are acting like some Brighton fans did about the transfer window, but with our finances.
How many pages is the thread about our finances from caring Palace fans that know pretty much zero about the subject matter?

Pretty sure if you go back through the thread you'll see it was Brighton fans that dragged the thread off topic talking about OUR finances
