Letters about giving money to the club

I don't care if you have been a season ticket holder for the last 10 years. My great grandad was the "Father of professional football in Sussex". It says so in the history book. And where did that get me?

Typing to some bloke that I could shout out the window to, that's where!

*I don't know if that was moaning, commenting or just plain boredom*

I thought the club were sending out letters to everyone who had bought a ticket from them since we've been at Withdean.

I still haven't received anything and had almost forgotten about it what with all the conference stuff going on.

Am I alone? Should I feel neglected? Or do they just realise I've got no money, so it's not worth asking, so they've put 28p in the kitty instead of buying a stamp?

I think I should be told!!!!
I work with an Albion fan who has not been for some time and has still received a letter asking for donations.
I said i would chip in but he would have to mug me for it.

As a simple commentary (rather than a moan) the scaffolding took over two weeks to put up, and I haven't seen anyone on it for weeks now. When people do turn up to work on it they are stupid stupid people who struggle to work out which end of a paintbrush to use and constantly whistle that japanese band's song from the Carling advert.

Dick Knight Out!

If your great grandad was the father of professional football in Sussex, then who was the mother ? And is there a son/daughter ?

Do let me know next time you're shouting out the window, I'll stand in my back garden and listen intently.

I've been a season ticket holder for the last 10 years. But depite this, the club has only got 11 points from 10 games this season, which I think is a disgusting return for my investment.

Good to see the team being run well, I must say.

ps. They'd better not write to me again asking for more money, they've already milked me dry. And please, read my post properly, I don't want any stupid replies.

Not that I'm moaning, mind. I'm only commenting.

I have not read your post properly but wish to make an observation or comment without rights of recourse against the possibility that this response may be construed as 'stupid'.

If anyone feels that this reply is stupid or indeed can be perceived as moaning please write to the Office of Public Moaning and Whinging:

What's the postcode? Not moaning about it not being there, just asking.

So your grandad must have been the brother of professional football in Sussex, his wife (your granny), the half sister of professional football in Sussex, your dad the nephew of professional football in sussex, thus making you the great nephew of professional football in sussex. People should know this!

That is a closely guarded secret. Unfortunately too many people wrote letters to this address and the local postman complained or should I say moaned incessantly about the fact. This resulted in the post code being withdrawn.

You might try emailing them. This would be a good idea except they have not published an email address. You can ring them and ask for thier telephone number?

I don't have a problem with threads like this but really, what do they achieve? Seems totally pointless - can't understand why people even bother to contribute. I know I wouldn't.

My learned friend...

You omitted to take into account the protection afforded by the preceding section of the constitution (as amended in 2003)

North Stand Chat Terms & Conditions of Use:

Sect. 10b (ix) - Stupid Posts

Any user is obliged to post items of sincere foolishness or even absurdity at their discretion. This is subject to the aforementioned absurd posting being posted with the intention of causing mirth amongst fellow contributors. In doing so any subsequent respondees may reply in a stupid manner and shall not fall foul of section 11b(iiv) Stupied Replies. This is on the proviso that it is clearly apparent, from the outset, that the poster is posting with tongue firmly in cheek and with a comical grin on his/her face.

I thank you.
