The Falmer saga reminds me of a story told to me a couple of years ago by a retired local headmaster who now lives elsewhere.
He said on a return journey from Italy by coach they had gone through 58 tunnels and had it been in this country we would still be considering planning permission for the first. I think it about sums up the situation here.
Although no longer a season ticket holder (age has caught up), I still follow the club and wonder if the councillors realise the vast amount of free publicity a football club gives a city.
Please, everyone, get a move on and approve the plans for a new stadium at Falmer.
