How does this make you feel ...

[Caveman]

Be honest with your comments ...!

It hurts, that's my honest opinion.

 

[El Presidente]

Ouch, that hurts.

 

[Dick Knights Mumm]

just sad.

Very sad indeed. Shows how crummy the open terraces were though. Not that I ever stood on them. North Stand only for me. Home

Sorry if this is a stupid question, but say that the scum that are Archer and Belotti never turned up would you still want to be playing at the Goldstone?

Could it have been done up? or would you be looking for a new stadium by now anyway, even if it there been far better than Withdean.

 

[eastlondonseagull]

We'd still be there imo. COuld have done it up nicely, if we'd had the cash. And that's the problem.

Good question, i've thought that a few times. I'd rather be at the Goldstone than the Withdean. The East was a mess, but it could have been repaired. The houses behind the east would always stop any development.

Look whats there now. Thats what really hurts.

Why we're on the subject, please tell me eveyone steers clear of it now.

No chance! We'd have sold if for £25million instead of £7m and built a tidy 30,000 stadium somewhere sensible like Falmer.

Honest opinion - the place looks like a dump. Guess we always knew that at the time, but it was home and all that.

Fact is though, if we'd stayed there most of what's occured over the last five seasons would probably never have happened.

Five seasons of nothingness at a crumbling stadium, or what we've just had at Withdean? Toughy.

Do you think Archer sleeps at night?


Changing the subject, scroll to the bottom of the page and have a look at Shellhurst Phark. For some reason I really hate that ground and everything that goes with it.

I miss the place as much as everyone else but I'm sure we wouldn't be playing there now or would be planning to move on. There was a lot of talk of getting a new ground even back then. You couldn't just have developed the East that easily - didn't the residents have some right that the ground wouldn't go higher than their houses? (this could be bollocks but I think it's true).

Look at just how many new grounds have been built in recent years, many of which have replaced much better grounds than the Goldstone ever was.

 

[Seagullible]

Really miss the old place

... although pleasingly Selhurst Park is still a complete shithole.

What is there now?

Not being insensitive, just curious..

Glad you agree and I'm not just saying that because I really f@@cking hate them.

 

[CHAPPERS]

Homesick.

 

[brighton rock]

the ground looks finnished just sad to see a football club ripped of by money men?

Thankfully, I couldn't find any pictures.
