LWJ IN regardless of the price for this one.


+1

This could be the biggest game since the semi final at Wembley by the time the game comes around.


IN! Driving though :(

Very tempted by this, but not really IN for the train/issues that causes getting in and out of Brighton.

Thinking of driving to somewhere like Eastbourne and getting the train in from there. Anyone done this, or similar, before?

If you're going to drive you can park on the country road going away from the motorway on the verge next to the field, then it's like a 5 minute walk.

Mmm, would rather not park on a verge next to a field, I don't mind an extra bit of driving/paying for a small train journey.

There was quite a few cars there but yeah fair enough each to their own. As someone who's avidly against both trains and paying for parking the verge seemed like a decent option.

Drive to Lewes which has around 200 or so spaces and then get the train. I believe the train is covered with your match ticket. I've been fine parking there the 2 times I've gone.

Also IN x2!

Can't wait for this one. Hopefully we'll bring a decent following who'll be in good voice after a few beers in the day. It's got the feel of Southampton away 2012 for me.

It may well do. However, you'd have to go a long way to beat that pal. Priceless, both on and off the pitch :lol:

not been to the Amex before..

presume it wont make much difference whether in S1B or S1C

EDIT - Nevermind.... IN x 2 for S1C Upper

Surprised there isn't some sort of Royalty Points requirement for this.. surely we'll sell out?!?

Only taken an initial allocation so far so if the demand is there we can just get more tickets.

As a local these days I can tell you that there's very limited room along there to actually park and the locals have it all tied up 2-3 hours early normally. Lewes would be my best advice and yes the 10 minute train journey is included in your ticket price. Some lovely pubs in Lewes too

I read in some unofficial article about the ground that local train travel is included with your ticket price. I know this sounds like a dumb question but can anybody confirm this, and if so, which stations does this include? I would look it up but I have and haven't found anything official. Can anyone help me out? Thanks in advance :)

Watch out for the concourse floors. I remember last time they were like an ice rink for some reason. About 6 people (including me - :oops: ) fell over.

And they stop serving beer 5 minutes til kick off even if there are some already poured.

The girl was nice enough to give me one when I told her her manager wasn't even looking but it's a silly policy anyway.

Truth be told I hate the Amex.
