I agree Brighton and Hove Albion need a permanent venue but this is not a right.

It may be difficult for RP Hammond (Letters, August 27) and others to understand but not everyone loves football.

This does not make us stupid or deserving of ridicule, just different from you. There's no point throwing a tantrum about it.

Perhaps the council shouldn't have "bent over backwards" to support the Albion.

The money spent is from all residents and some may feel there are more useful ways to spend our taxes.
