Would old school terracing and a relaxed police/stewarding attitude clinch it?

We have the academy that should start to produce talent within a couple of years and that's the way forward

That's my hope. IF we get relegated we have the infrastructure to ensure we don't crash and burn, but will always be able to come back.

To compete in the prem is near on impossible and sadly it's all about players hideous wages and avoiding the drop.I would rather be in the championship with a good academy any day of the week to be honest.

My point is that the academy should produce meaning we don't need to go down the path of paying 20/30k a week in the championship.
The football club is more important than chasing a prem dream that can cripple you even if you get relegated with parachute payments.Its a shite league with little entertainment and it's all about the big 6 to be frank.
How much of the £100 million goes on wages and more?
It's a pointless bubble until sky fack off

Perhaps this should be sticky as there seems to be a similar thread every week.

After reading through that article on the Starlizard company that bloom setup. I couldn't help but think, that those brighton fans who were creaming themselves over eden hazard, may actually be employees of Starlizard.
Taking into account Starlizard actually have a box at Chelsea FC.

Have we seen much evidence of that so far?We have the academy that should start to produce talent within a couple of years and that's the way forward

IF we get relegated.
Well that's a doozy!
In the unlikely event we are I reckon the Amex would've been sold off to some high brow religious sect, uttering those immortal words...............

If we go down so be it, we were competitive for four of our five seasons in the Championship so why wouldn't be be successful again and gain promotion once more. Other clubs have done it and come back stronger for the experience.

Assuming that after the 2 parachute payment seasons, TB will want to resume pumping in £15m to £20m of personal money per annum again. To fund a competitive squad.

If we go down and are unable to get back up, how long could TB keep funding the Albion. Amazed at his input so far but how deep is the well?
Well I think you can reliably say that he won't be one of those 'fans' who stops going to matches and supporting their team at the slightest little thing they don't like
