‘The whole thing’s daft
We don’t know why
We have to laugh
Or else we’ll cry
Our ground’s too small
The costs too high
Without Falmer
Our club will die’

‘Tom Hark (We Want Falmer)’ by Seagulls Ska, released yesterday,is Number 10 in today’s midweek Top 40 chart, having been at number one in both the amazon.co.uk Hot Pre-Release Chart and the Best Selling Singles list at hmv.co.uk for most of the last three weeks, outselling Elvis among many others!

On release day it was number 2 at futurechart.co uk, the website which predicts what’s going into the Top 40.

It’s a rewrite of the Piranhas’ classic football hit recorded by a bunch of ska-loving Brighton fans, reclaiming the song for the Piranhas’ home town with new lyrics supporting Brighton & Hove Albion’s five year campaign for our new stadium at Falmer.

All profits from the single will go to our cash-strapped club’s Alive & Kicking Fund.

The single is released on the Falmer For All label, manufactured and distributed by our main sponsors Skint Records.

Our aim all along has been to hit the Top 40 in the week following release and gain extra publicity for our stadium campaign, one month before the public enquiry restarts....it looks like we’ve done it, and then some!

The single is available from all branches of HMV and Virgin, from many independent stores in the Brighton area including Rounder Records in Brighton Square and globally online via hmv and amazon

Seven years since the Goldstone Ground was sold behind our backs by uncaring moneymen, seven years of fans’ campaigns - and still Brighton & Hove Albion don’t have a proper home. This is another chapter in the story of the Albion supporters’ battle to save our club.....
