Considering the prize is a chance to STAND up in H or J block with the official blessing of the club there must be loads of volunteers.

You're bound to get loads of offers if you just ask around on the day, surely.

I would offer but it would look a little askew with one of the t-shirts over in the family stand.

It would be better, though more difficult, to get volenteers from the North Stand as opposite the TV cameras.

As for drinks before the game, The Sportsman is fine for 30 mins or so but if you fancy a REAL drink at decent prices then try the Evening Star by Brighton station, the best beer pub in town.

Then take the tour on the 27 (or is it 27a?) and get there just in time for KO.

Thanks for all of these offers. As Area2074 says we are in a dreadful situation and any support would be very gratefully accepted. I don't know if you hit a point during your struggle when there seemed to be a feeling of apathy where those people who just wanted to watch the football and let the winds of fate sort out the club's problems seemed to hold the main opinion? We have got many people boycotting home games so the level of protest has died down at them. It is a very difficult time for us with saturday providing us with a really good oppportunity to regroup and move forward in our protest.


Just to warn you that the fairly dirgy song that we sing to the cheerful 'Love will tear us apart again' is 'Keith is ripping us off again'!

A group of us will be in the Evening star before the game to hand over any T shirts and banners to anyone who is happy to help.

Well, this is looking good - if potential T shirt wearers could make it to the Star to pick 'em up that would be good. Should point out that my half time announcement wasn't 'sanctioned' by anyone, it was just me saying what needed to be said, as I always will in such situations! Anyway, here's to a rousing joint protest on Saturday.

But surely if Haslam is forced out, then Narnia will forever be ruled by the Ice Queen!

Save Haslam I say!

Good luck Mansfield :thumbsup:

It looks as though we will have plenty of choice about where are going to be as it appears that we will bring just over 350 hopefully noisy fans.

Both of our strikers are definitely out and we await the details of injuries sustained by the squad on their 'bonding sesson' walking in the Peak District in the snow today!

Looking forward to playing you on Saturday and pulling off the impossible win!

Is this Haslam chap actually likely to be their on Saturday? Will happily kick him in the shins as he makes his way back for his half time cup of tea through the back of the North Stand.

Just wanted to thank the Brighton Fans in advance for any support that is forth coming on Saturday.
I was at the old Goldstone ground on 9/11/1996 when an army of supporters came up the street and burst through the gates, came marching across the pitch and tried to climb into the directors box. I always remember everyone mixed together in the away end for the second half, it was a fantastic atmoshphere, everyone shouting Belloti out. A few fans made a point of thanking the Stags fans for their support, so again thankyou and sing at the top of your voices
"HASLAM OUT, HASLAM OUT".
We really need to get rid of this money sucking cowboy!!!

P.S. Where is the best place for a good pint and chance to exchange stories before the game.

I think this is the game :)

He does go to away games but has agreed to stay away from all home matches because of the stick he gets. He is easy to recognise - just remember the lyrics to his favourite song

Who's the twat in the cowboy hat, Haslam, Haslam.
Who's the twat in the cowboy hat, Haslam is his name.
Haslam is his name, robbing is his game
Who's the twat in the cowboy hat, Haslam is his name.


Big fedora, shining eyes and red cheeks to reflect the fact that he is shortly due in court to defend his third drink driving offence! A pretty boy like him should be popular in the showers!
