    I was there Henry, if i remember rightly there was loads of charlton. great day out. A friend of a friend helped organise and came back to the Valley and paraded around the pitch with a (dodgy) home made banner thanking all Charlton Fans for their support.

    Fantastic news.

    I did as well. It was a brilliant day out with the added Charlton angle of one Steve Gritt (He's got no hair but we don't care) as Brighton manager.

    Since then I have never shopped at Focus DIY (I always spit when I go past our local one!!)

    The Albion has become my second team.

    Great news. That area has so much potential for a 'big' club to be there... Pompey and Palace being the closest league teams to them.

    Let's hope it doesn't take as long to build as Wembley...

    Are you sure about this news? On Meridian news this morning it said that the Residents are trying to block it yet again today. Probably a bunch of bleedin coffin dodgers with nothing better to do.

    I was there with my mate Simon a die hard BHAFC supporter.

    When Brighton made the cup final in 1983 he was living and working in South Afica. He sold up and moved himself and family back to the UK and went to the final

    You're right - there is still an opportunity to appeal the decision - I think they have up to six weeks - and if that happens it would put the process back yet another year!

    I heard Dick Knight - Brighton chariman today pleading with local residents not to appeal this decision. (They still have a right of appeal). He sounded quite concerned that they would appeal and thus this may not yet be the final word on the new stadium.
