Falmer museum gets go-ahead

Presumably they have already incorporated all this on the assumption the PP was a formality.

... and the need for a bigger Club Shop is probably based on the assumption that promotion to the Premier League is a formality.

The planning application is described as "part retrospective".

Indeed, it is.

NSC's very own History Man likes the museum:-

What is Ben Elton doing there?

With Gus at the helm it is. Better get ordering the tat to fill the Seagulls Superstore!

It's the BBC who are being stupid.

Can I make a suggestion? As the albion run out to The Sussex regimental song, then what about a link up with the regimental museum.. they are in the Rideout Napoleonic Fort on Eastbourne (I think it was Eastbourne anyway) Sea Front. It would help that museum show its stuff to more visitors and would fit nicely with the picture of The Sussex parading on the Goldstone during WW1..

 

[Lord Bracknell]

I'd love to know what they're going to put in that.

The museum in Barcelona has a life-size statue of El divino Zamora.

New museum should be great.

Is there a final Collectors fair at Withdean?

Lord B, can you let on much regarding the fans bar? I keep seeing the odd comment from you or atilla but never anything concrete. Would I be right in saying that's still in the pipeline? Preumably they'd need more planning permission to implement it?

 

[Lord Bracknell]

The application that was approved today is for:-

(i) increased floor area for the club shop;
(ii) new floor area for club offices;
(iii) new museum;
(iv) new floor area for storage; and
(v) minor revisions to the North Stand elevations.

I forgot to add:-

(vi) a coffee shop / staff restaurant, with no kitchen attached to it.

I hope as well as concentrating on the history of the club on the field part of the museum is dedicated to the fans & efforts that they've made through all the campaigns over the years & REMF.

'Artifact' wise a collection of every known Albion shirt would be amazing.

A cafe that will shortly apply for a license I believe, one could almost call it a pub......

Ahhhhhhh I get it. The staff will only be allowed to eat sandwiches or cold snacks.

 

[Dave the OAP]

I'd love to know what they're going to put in that.
