I’ll take a few photos and share them with fellow NSCers thought I.
Two and a half years, and at least 125 Friday lunch time postings later, it is now time to sign off.
Our shiny new ground, named now as the “American Express Community Stadium”, is virtually finished. Just a few I’s to dot, and T’s to cross.
I have seen our new home grow, in the flesh, week on week, through the sun, rain, fog and snow.
If ever a saying rings true, then “Doesn’t time fly when you’re having fun?” is as near as it gets.
I can’t believe how quickly this time has gone.
With our new cathedral of football, Brighton has now become a proper city.
I can assure you, I’ve thoroughly enjoyed taking the photos.
Along the way, I’ve got to meet personally several NSC members who I wouldn’t have perhaps otherwise.
I’ve always had support from people within the Club too, without whom I wouldn’t have had the privileged opportunities for inside visits in order to keep people informed of the “invisible progress” from under the stands.
I also got to know several members of the Buckingham construction team, including Natterjack. Remember him?
He has become a good friend, and assures me that he will be with us at Cardiff next season!
Thank you to all that have joined me on this epic journey, posting your comments of appreciation with your unique wit and surreal humour which epitomises what NSC is all about.
Thanks to all who bought our calendars, helping to raise money for our supporters’ club.
There’s one more to buy this xmas by the way! You’ll want the full set of 3 won’t you? Could be a collector’s item in a few years!
Soon, we can all visit the Mecca of Football, and fill our boots (or SD cards?) with as many photos as we like.
It is because of where we are now at Falmer, because of all the good people who have made this happen, I can now proudly announce….
….my work is done.
