what an utter bunch of miserable idiots people like Wole and thucydides are... why not support something that is local - rather than a cheap snide remark.. better still move away to another part of the country that does not have events like this on (for the community). Go back to your sad, pathetic little lives and not bother others with your remarks. I understand if you do not want to go - because you are too old or too boring - that is fine.. but cut the rubbish remarks

um.co.uk you will see that the stadium is not just for football or Fat Boy Slim concerts. There have been Wedding Fayres, Xmas parties, School Proms and lots of other events going on. It just goes to show why this area needed a stadium from day one. It's easy to get too, and there are great transport links. Stop moaning. Would you have preferred an incinerator or sewage treatment works shoved in it's place, like the residents of Peacehaven and Newhaven have had to put up with. Stop moaning!!

It would have been better if built elsewhere.
