In regard to American Express, they've been 1 of the biggest employers in Brighton for 40+ years (UK HQ). It's also called the Community stadium, as they do loads in the local area and the ground is used for other events. Take into account that Brighton had been broke & homeless for 14 years, they were hardly chasing the corporate $$; more of a necessity with finance. As for the noise/chants/atmosphere; the 14 homeless years lost a generation of support and older fans went too. Went from 6500 at the Withdean to 30,000 in the Amex, new supporters who didn't have the singing culture. The hard core 3,000 who go away make lots of noise (as you'll see) but they're spread about the ground at home. The atmosphere is usually like that, except for Chelsea now & Palace. Can't rely on your keeper every week to save you though...and Tim Philips isn't Goldstone Ghost
Confused by Phil saying we played 3-5-2 at Wimbledon - we started Johnson and Ogbene down the right, and Chappers played at 10? Also don't understand how anyone can say we 'missed Cajuste' on Saturday. He's played less than two games in a Town shirt, we don't know what he's offering.
Just for the record, American Express doesn't own the Amex, it sponsors it. They are the biggest employers in Brighton. Surely you would want the biggest employers in Ipswich to play a major part of Ipswich town fc (if they don't already?)
@@andrewjones-qi3ds oh I’m with you Andrew tbh the financial rules as they are now is never turn down any incoming investment but that’s me and I’m probably in a minority tbh ( guv one on the left as you look at the screen 🤣👍🏻)
Looks good mate 👍
Can't get much more corporate than having American Express as your sponsor
Couldn’t get more agricultural than once having Fison’s as your sponsor….American Express have had their UK headquarters in Brighton for 40+ years.
Touched by all the people asking after my whereabouts….

A slight concern is our lack of pace in the central midfield……🙏🏻🙏🏻💙💙⚽️⚽️

Trains back to Brighton or Lewes were very well organised. No trouble or issues at all.
I commend you for travelling sustainably 👏
Agree we took the kids by train, they handled the trains so well. We were back in Ipswich at 835pm collecting a Chinese takeaway at 845pm !
@@samporter4363 Kung Po Chicken? Complimentary prawn crackers? Guv and Crunch promised to take me out for a Chinese, 11 months later…..🤷♂️
Omari on the right Clarke on the left Smoddy number 10 🤷🏻♂️
Guv, there is only one truth.... Talking Town !
