It's all about money money money and nothing else.

*Sigh*

It's all about money money money and nothing else.

*Sigh*

It does seem to be the case, sadly.

 

[Geriatric Seagull]

I bet this was written just after Brezovan's first clangers. Anyone want to buy a keeper's shirt with a one on the back? They got a shopful!

 

[Silverhatch]

Crass! If it's all about money we should have played a stronger team and had a right bloody go at winning the proxy tie.

 

[Phat Baz 68]

I could think of something far better to print on the back of his shirt, and its NOT a number if you catch my drift !!!!

 

[16bha]

No doubt they had 2 versions ready depending on the result, this one and a ' we're on our way to Wembley so get your shirt version', but agree that poor timing. For at least 24 hours they should act like fans and be pissed off.

have they never heard of spending a little time for reflection?

Exactly !!
some people wont get home who went to Hull, until four or five in the morning to be confronted by that !!
Very poor on Brightons part.

 

[ozzygull]

Yep got that email as well. Did **** all to improve my mood. Just pissed me off more.

 

[Husty]

Promotional code: FACUP242

They should try 4-4-2 instead.

Gaul? Have they moved to France?

 

[Henfield One]

So out of touch with supporters it beggars belief. One wonders who had that brilliant idea in the Club offices. Another own goal. They just don't get it do they.

 

[Phat Baz 68]

Gaul? Have they moved to France?

Smart arse !!!

 

[HawkTheSeagull]

Awful.

Making money out of crashing out of the cup is an absolute joke. The offer would have been the same even if we had won tonight - pathetic !!

 

[Zebedee]

Nope. It would appear not.

No, HO, they really don't.
I'm fed up with this spam from them.

 

[timco]

A touch insensitive I think Baz a bit like turning up on the widows doorstep the day of her husbands death and asking for a blow job!

Who ever is in charge of Brighton's marketing needs to be give the Spanish archers! Those terrible clackers in the play offs and this, they could have waited till the morning at least.

If we are supposed to be maximising the income then these jokers are doing the exact opposite, they certainly are with me, yes a lot of gall but they stand a chance of having it shoved up their arse!

 

[Black Rod]

Well, it certainly worked for me. After watching us stick a clown in goal and play a reserve side that showed all the fight of a tin of six year old tuna in the first half this evening when there was a realistic chance of a first appearance at Wembley in a generation, I've been inspired enough to buy £50 worth of merchandise including a goalkeepers shirt with "Gimp 1" on the back

Geniuses in the marketing department

 

[spanish flair]

I have replied to mine, letting them know just how I feel about the email.
