Bloom invested in Amex and team because he hoped potential 25k plus gates ahead and if got to PL income would rise by £100m plus..In a covid free situation if financially he ran club like Norwich and Burnley we could even pay back a chunk each year. It is good for us all that he has continued to buy players and spend on training ground. So there was an end aim for his investment in mens team. Surely our womens set up will not take great strides forward until they play in or near Brighton. Sure has been mentioned before but why dont they play at Withdean.


I think the rules are that the ground has to have a 6000+ capacity or planning permission to make it 6000.

Withdean is no longer 6000 capacity and would need council permission to get it back to that size.

The club may well have discussed it with the council for all I know :shrug:

Women's football will never be big for the same reason women's NBA struggles.

Women don't seem that interested in going to watch games.

When half the population has little interest in a sport targetted at them it will always struggle to push past certain levels.

If women did turn up to watch in the same kind of numbers men turn up to watch mens sports it could be huge.

Doubt that ever happens though.
