It's amazing really: until the Dark Days of the mid-90s onwards, those chairmen of the club who weren't *complete* money-grabbing crooks were always talking about a new stadium, in an era when no-one ever moved to a new stadium, ever.

Easy, why did you have to go and mention the Vauxhall Chevette? Back in 1975 I was the Asst Manager at Keymarkets supermarket in Lancing and our Area Manager had arranged with the local Vauxhall dealer to display one of the newly launched Chevettes in the first aisle of our shop for a week. They supplied us with a cassette of the TV advert which we had to play every 10 mins over the tannoy system for the whole week. I had this advert and song going through my head for the next frigging year, and I remember all the bloody words even now!

The one floodlight looks stupid
I think that actually holds the safety netting up to stop the ball going out of the stadium when CMS tries a shot at the North Stand end goal.

Bamber was a regular visitor to the states and on seeing the stadia over there had hoped he could achieve the same for the Albion. He wanted it to be built at waterhall.

The design had private boxes over the north stand I think Tony Millard was on the sales team he was also editor of the programme

They could build at Gatwick and share with Crawley I think that was muted by mr Bamber ,did Fulham ever thank brighton for paying for one of there stands!
