Momentum for a stadium should be redirected soon before the approaching disappointment completely engulfs Albion supporters (not necessarily the same as the Falmer stadium supporters).
The admirable tenacity of the Falmer campaigners should not be wasted further.
I have never expected the Falmer campaign to succeed and perhaps take a more pragmatic view.
However, all is not lost as support for a sports complex (including football) for this area is overwhelming - unfortunately it has been led down acul de sac by the Falmer campaign (Dick Knight). A fresh approach is needed.
Support for a scheme was reiterated with the consent for the Black Rock sport-orientated development - this was a missed opportunity to combine efforts for a grander scheme.
Brighton should find better leaders for important schemes such as these - and soon.
