Got something to say or just want fewer pesky ads? Join us... 😊
Can you let us know the running time of The Withdean Years DVD, if it states it on the back cover? I think quite a few of us would change our stance on whether to shell out based it being anywhere between 50 mins per disc to 90 mins per disc.

Doesn't say. By the way, does anyone else who got a signed copy of the book know who the other two autographs belong to? (the first 2 being Paul Hodson and Stephen North...)
Well Kuipers, Rogers and Cullip were signing them the other night so I guess its two of those

I'm watching the last of the 3 DVDs now and it's about 55 mins.
Boo-urns! Did the first 2 discs FEEL longer?

OK, the first DVD is 70 mins, the second is 90 mins and the third is 50 mins. The third also has features 'Withdean Years Dinner' and 'Withdean memories', probably in addition to the 50 mins.
The production is well-crafted, although there is a horrible 'letterbox' around most of the action. I'll try to do a screenshot so you see what I mean.

Yes that is un neccessary. Football has been filmed in 16:9 widescreen for at least 10 years. Why does it go back to 4;3

The DVD is excellent; I have just finished watching the last disk. There is a good balance between match action, interviews and other content. Not sure about the £30 price tag, but I let it go on the basis that it is a fairly unique item.

Popped into the club shop today, had a flick through the book. Might have to invest once I've finished Build a Bonfire (I'm a slow reader, alright).

Question. Is it ALL the goals from our time at Withers home and away? Or just home?

That looks well annoying...
Quite like the book packaging.
Can I quote that on twitter? We really need to get the book as much as publicity as possible so the more people can tweet or post on Facebook/other sites about it, would be really helpful.

It's a summary of each season, looking at key matches, important moments etc, interspersed with players' version of events and features of key moments in the fight for a new stadium.

is the dvd actually worth getting? at 30 quid it does seem a bit steep unless it's really good
can someone just put it on youtube

It's a good summary and well put together. An excellent souvenir from the Withdean era.
Having said that, for what you get, I'd say it was £10 too expensive.
Just wait until it's discounted in the club shop...
