1-0 to the Albion but a close game was enjoyed by over 900 people.

Does anyone really care about Lewes FC anymore? Lets face it the team is made up of London mercenaries who could not have pointed to Lewes on a map before a large wad of cash was waved in their faces. Now that Marc Cable has been shown the door(a discrace) the team has lost all links with the town. The sooner king goes and takes all HIS players with him the better.
Bring back Jimmy Quinn, Justin Harris,etc.

well actually i care about lewes fc and im very proud of what they have achieved. theyre becoming a big club now and cant rely on players coming from bridge view they need to look further afield for quality players. oh and btw marc cable is out on loan. he hasnt left the team...
p.s. good result for lewes! many first team players in the brighton squad?

If you knew Marc as I do (and you obviously do'nt) then you would know that the only reason he's still a Lewes player is because Eastbourne Borough and king can't agree a fee. So do'nt hold your hopes up that you'll be seeing him in the black & red again 'cause king does'nt rate him despite what he says in the Sussex Express.

Apology accepted Reverend. As you no longer reside in Lewes it's difficult for you to keep up with all that's happening at the Dripping Pan, but I'll keep you posted of any nuggets of information I gather. I still say we'll all rue the day steve king walked through the door.

I'm an Albion season ticket holder and don't know too much about Lewes FC or the manager(?) you seem to despise. However I think it was quite shrewd that when we got Jarrett part of the deal was to play this friendly. More league clubs should help the surrounding teams financially in this way as a matter of course. And you always get a great match with local pride at stake

gotta agree here,whilst not a season ticket holder any longer. The Albion do have local teams at heart.

okay just read a review about mondays match... king is so stupid. i can see the team definately need cable back. and why the hell did newman not start? king needs to sort himself out and swallow his pride. bring back cable!

I'm sorry to say that king wants no trace of the Jimmy Quinn era at the club. Though Marc is very popular with the fans AND the directors of the club, king has the last word on playing staff. Don't be surprised if Newman is the next to go.
