I just heard back and the council finally gave us the green light for the wall at the Pan so we can actually build that turnstile now. It honestly feels surreal after all the back and forth with these people but we really pulled it off and I am just …
Lewes Fc are trying to improve their home ground, The Dripping Pan, but need to knock down a brittle old wall around the back of it to make a turnstile. Lewes District Council have said no to the plans and we, the fans don\'t agree, they are anti-football and have also tried to fight Brighton and Hove Albions plans for their Falmer Stadium. We believe this is wrong.
I honestly cannot believe how many people have jumped on this to save the wall at the Pan because seeing that number tick up keeps making me refresh the page while I try to drink my coffee. It feels like the council might actually have to listen to us for once since they seem so stuck in their ways about anything progress related.

Football is about community and this is just petty gatekeeping by people who never step foot in the stadium.

Fix the ground. The Dripping Pan is a great spot and this wall is just getting old anyway.

RIDICULOUS. Why do they hate progress so much? Let the community have their improvements.

The council need to get a grip. It is a wall not a heritage site. Let the club move forward
