Complete surrender by the manager before kick off. I feel sorry for the 6,000 who travelled.

Re: Have you ever touched a match ball?

Re: Train Strike Brighton Away

It’s also the Mod weekender that weekend so the town and seafront will be much busier than usual

Great if you are an early 80s Mod like me…

Re: Away Tickets Thread - Prague - SOLD OUT 24pts - FILL IN YOUR TRAVEL FORMS

Well done to those with a ticket. I missed out due to lack of points.

I do have a spare cheap flight from Gatwick and free accommodation (as my son cannot now go) if anyone has a spare ticket?

DM me if anyone is interested.

It’s easy to buy from the Lyon site using a French vpn. We bought 4+2 in 10 minutes this afternoon. Block 426.

Re: Gold & Sullivan

Recent injections of money for transfer funds have been the pay-day loans from Funding Rights & Media - there was a repayment of £39m due to them in July which may be the reason Sully had to put more into the rights issue

Re: good old days..

Was that the night game at the end of 85/86 we lost 1-3?

If so I was in the away end which we sold out for what could have been the title decider but ended up a dead rubber (thanks to Chelsea losing at home to Liverpool)

Re: Olympic Stadium Discussion and Questions

The last accounts for the final season at the Boleyn showed match receipts of £27m

£27m x 6.3% = £1.7m increased match receipts
