Is chanting Albino instead of Albion when that really talented Derby fella comes on the pitch borderline racist? If so, should anyone chanting it be banned?

Have you now made a small fortune from football, having invested a massive one in the past 5 years?

Seriously, perhaps someone knows this and could answer, what % of our total revenue excluding player sales do we make from matchdays (inc gate receipts) only? People constantly go on about our support but isn't this rather a small percentage compared to TV these days?

Did Dick Knight ever hand over the £2m he promised at Southwick FC when he first took over to strengthen the team?

What would need to happen to cause you to sell the Albion, and how do we best make sure that doesn't happen?

No - I don't give a crap if anyone thinks that's a "lickers" question. Better this man than an overseas 'investor', by a long, long way.

Bearing in mind that the Derby team had some very impressive man beards and this years Eurovision winner was also sporting a decent beard do you think we missed out on promotion due to our poor quality facial hair and will you be changing the transfer policy to reflect this?

What's the Eurovision Song Contest got to do with anything. If we get involved in that, I will cut up my season ticket.

And yes, I have already renewed.

2012/13: Ticket receipts - £8.707m (37.2%); FL and central distributions - £4.791m (20.5%); Media - £0.673m (2.9%)
2011/12: Ticket receipts - £7.869m (35.5%); FL and central distributions - £5.695m (25.7%); Media - £0.551m (2.5%)

Ticket receipts are ex VAT.

The bloke that sits in front of me has very puffy hair. Does the club have a plan to reduce the number of puffy headed people it admits to the amex and therefore improve the match day experience for lots of fans?

Thanks - so TV is the bigger revenue stream? Even in the Champ? Meaning smaller clubs can compete with us on this basis, generally?

I just want to understand if I can say shit the **** up to people boring on about our attendances as a stick to beat the club re: player recruitment budgets!!

Do we need to start looking internally into the club as this is now two managers have left after playoff heart break? Are we as a club set up wrong and need to rethink about the club as a whole?
Also I personally and I am sure other fans would like to know is, Do brighton have a plan in place to achieve there promotion to the premier league are the funds going to become available to the new manager/head coach?

I've amended my post as I missed the income entry for Media (ie that's individual club/media deals). Doesn't make a significant difference though (+3%)

Surprised at that, as the playoff finals aren't until the following week. Do those clubs get an extra week, do you know?

Last season, the Football League Professional Retain List & Free Transfers document was sub-titled "As At 18th May 2013". I have no reason to suppose that the play-off teams get any additional time.
