Don't shoot the messenger. SouthernRailUK your website says queuing system going into Brighton station from 6am tomoro. Is this right or do you mean 6pm? SouthernRailUK 1h1 hour ago 6am is correct. HF

It's definitely NOT a typo from Southern or the Argus - the train company have just clarified to me on Twitter that the queuing starts at 6am. Sounds like the issue is trains arriving into Brighton very full of Pride goers (which will start happening if not at 6am then certainly soon after). I...

That's the latest announcement from Southern. It's in relation to Pride, but doesn't differentiate which routes it applies to. Basically it sounds like EVERYONE trying to get a train from Brighton after 6am (6am!) will be tipped into the Amex home game style queues is how I read it. Probably...

He's mostly been used as a left winger (he's naturally left footed) but also as a playmaker/link between midfield and a lone striker. Given his youth I'd expect that (if one of the big PL clubs snaps him up as expected) he'd likely be loaned out to Championship sides for the first season or two.

With an offer for Gudmundsson accepted (2.5m + 1m add ons from Burnley) the Charlton fire sale has kicked off. Lookman will most likely go to a 'Big Six' PL club for about 5m. Others that I can't possibly see staying are DM Jordan Cousins (1.5m) who is still being linked with Albion, striker...

He's gone to Zulte Waregem (a Belgian team) on a season's loan with an option to buy next summer. He had a few great games early on, but then got found out and has struggled with injuries etc. We paid £2.5m for him and presumably want to try and sell him (for maybe half what we paid?) but...

I think things that are politically sensitive (as this case clearly is) will often end up tried in Central London, even things that are fairly 'minor' in comparison to murder. For example, internet troll Joshua Bonehill (who was jailed last year for posting an anti-semitic image on Twitter)...

FWIW Birmingham have thrown their hat into the ring for Cousins now, according to a SE London rag's 'exclusive': http://m.newsshopper.co.uk/sport/14566244.Exclusive__Birmingham_join_rivals_in_showing_interest_in_Charlton_star/ If true then I suspect they might be in the driving seat, since...

Ajose not a done deal yet (could well be gazumped by a Championship side) although Lee Novak was confirmed this morning. Ricky Holmes is likely a replacement for Gudmundsson rather than Cousins. I don't think any Charlton fans expect us to keep Lookman, Gudmundsson or Cousins. Vetokele has...

The WSL and WPL are separate entities - no promotion/relegation between the two - so the fact that one is a winter league and the other a summer league isn't so much of an issue. It's only because the WSL is expanding from 18 to 20 teams that the winner of last year's playoff (Sheffield) and...

To be fair, since most of the committed Albion fans will be at the Riverside or watching the Amex beamback, I would hope/expect all the pubs in central Brighton to be showing Charlton v Burnley instead.

Charlton have taken the front six rows of the Lower North (which most of the projectiles come from) off sale. Looks like these seats will be covered and out of use. This is probably counter productive though, since it means people won't be able to reach the pitch with harmless things like...

Side note: Whatever happens results wise, Burnley won't (in literal terms) lift the Championship trophy at the Valley. It's just been revealed that the CAFC security team have agreed with the League that, if Burnley win the title, they won't raise the trophy at the Valley. Our security goons...

From a personal perspective my protest is a flat out boycott of home games and yes, I was doing that when we were in the top 6 for several weeks at the start of this season. As for the wider fanbase, a lot football fans only think as far as the last couple of results, so of course the number...

1. All his investment is loans at 3% interest. The club is currently around £45 million in hock to his holding company. Some would call that financial jeopardy. 2. Possibly - his behaviour is so bizarre we really don't know what his plans are or what the end game will be. Certainly, he has...

That's bizarre if that's the case, since the club DEFINITELY didn't start running coaches from Worthing until eight years later (2005). The Brighton & West Sussex Charlton Supporters Club was based in Worthing and will have most likely have run a minibus to games - was it them advertising...

I don't want to further derail this thread by getting into a debate, but it is worth pointing out that in your (CLEAR FROM THE CAPITAL LETTERS) extreme anger you have misremembered an awful lot. For what it's worth: 1. Valley Express was launched in January 2005 (after the closure of the main...

So you'd have preferred today's game to have taken place behind closed doors (as it would have done under your plan given the similar beach ball stoppages in our preceding games)?

I posted this on another thread but FWIW: Charlton players have been told to be on call until (ie not book any holiday before) May 13th. Apparently the new Football League rule (introduced for this season after the abandonment of Blackpool v Huddersfield on the last day last season) is that if...

Echo the OP's sentiments. I was planning to travel up for the protest march today (although not the game as, like many, I'm boycotting home matches under this regime) but unfortunately couldn't in the end. Followed the march via social media and the game on Kodi. From what I've seen/heard...
