Can people please stop talking about the takeover! We are trying to talk about West Sussex towns.
#EastSussexMatters
I love living in East Sussex, lovely countryside, nice seaside towns, clean air, clear night skies, so glad I left dismal, dirty, traffic polluted, light polluted, crowded south east London.
Where did you live before you moved to East Sussex?
Bowyer did very well on Saturday, but last week he wasn't even favourite to take over between himself and Jackson, never mind against external alternatives.
The point is that things change quickly - and if we lose the next two games they may change again. Hopefully we win them and the current set-up is able to run until the end of the season because it is successful, but the Kewell rumour didn't start on message boards, it started in the national press.
For new owners its surely a case of assessing the current, in contract players, and compiling targets for the summer? By now you would hope they have 3 lists of targets, championship, league 1 and some both.
I am less worried about who manages the remaining 9 games, promotion now would be seen as an unlikely bonus, than who is planning next season. Especially with the reduced transfer window.

Sounds agonizingly boring.
Don't be so naive Howells, You still get drug dealers, but it takes longer as their Zimmer frames only have one gear.

Barnehurst/Erith border
Bit rude to look down your nose on an area that a lot of choose to live our lives, a place that a good lot of us love... or perhaps some of us cant afford to move out to the back of beyond (yawn) and pay £5,000 per year on travel or want to spend all those hours commuting.
Gone right off topic here.
Born and bred in Erith but I escaped as soon as I could. I live in Yorkshire and you can buy a five-bed house up here for what you can a flat around there now. Anyway, those Australians eh?
Come on guys, don’t be selfish. I know this thread has specialised in going off at a tangent, but most of these posts are unnecessary or could either be in seperate topics.
Let’s at least try and make the effort to keep in on track for a couple of weeks at least please
Just as well the houses are cheap, I'd have to take a 80% pay cut if I worked anywhere other than our Capital.
Not always true. I got a 25% pay rise when I moved from working in central London to Leeds. Cost of living is a lot cheaper too. So many myths about living and working outside of London.

Yep lets do our best not to talk about the takeover.
Bowyer did very well on Saturday, but last week he wasn't even favourite to take over between himself and Jackson, never mind against external alternatives.

Hopefully we win them and the current set-up is able to run until the end of the season because it is successful, but the Kewell rumour didn't start on message boards, it started in the national press.
And East Sussex ?
Crawley's in West Sussex.
But it may as well be on the moon!! No atmosphere whatsoever!
PS. I love Seaford. Great walks and fresh air, can park for free, and get to know the seven sisters if your feeling fit !
Sunset at Seaford, this was the weekend before the snow hit & I have to say walking over the cliffs to Cuckmere Haven I can't ever remember being so cold & I actually love the cold weather. The icy wind was something else !

Why all this talk about East and West Sussex when the real burning question (apart from date of takeover of course) is why is West Kent the home of Kentish Men whilst East Kent is the home of Men of Kent?

Thought your separate thread was or the serious stuff!?

Assuming the Kewell rumour has some weight - I totally understand the worry that it would be Australians hiring another Australian for Australian's sake... an echo of the Duchatelet era.
I would suggest that there is a difference though - Kewell has spent almost his whole career in English football, worked as a coach of Watford u23s and is now performing fairly well as manager of a English League 2 team. I have no idea if he's any good, and I'm sure his nationality plays a big part, but he's not quite Karel Freaye.

I get what you mean but, if he's only being linked because of the Aussie link. For example, if a British buyer was interested, Harry Kewell wouldn't even have been listed as as candidate for our vacent role from most bookies etc

Nothing could ever match Karel Fraeye, but it would raise slight concern if of all the young managers they could choose, the Aussies chose an Australian, especially if he was lined up before the takeover was even completed, rather than appointed after an open contest afterwards

Maybe - I'm not enough of an expert on which managers at our level are currently considered hot property. If you were to list good up-and-coming managers around our level that we could realistically recruit.. would Kewell be nowhere near? (Asking, as I have no idea).

Still no punchline.
