I was upset to read the Albion had to pay Brighton and Hove City Council £1,000 as compensation for disruption to the park-and-ride scheme and wonder how committed the council really is towards the club.

If it's a condition of use, why cannot it make a donation of this sum to the club?

I don't think councillors realise the free publicity the city gets from a football club.

Just look at the times Brighton and Hove was mentioned when we were in the final at Wembley.
