APACHE
LONGTIME DIEHARD
Just had a look at the timetable for Sat. and we,ve gone from 3 trains in the 1st hour after the game down to 2. Hardly a good way to get us to use them unless they're putting on more carriages.

Sorry should have said, east of Lewes towards Eastbourne
Without just grumbling for the sake of it, there are some issues with the trains that don't make any sense, and could be easily corrected.
No one, especially after Buckley scoring that late winner, is going to want to miss play to get that 17.02 to Lewes, which serves not only Lewes and East but a lot of people going to Wivelsfield and Haywards Heath. That, with kids, is a very hard train to catch now.
But if you now miss that train and are going to Wivelsfield, basically it's at least another hour on your journey. There is no good connecting service from Lewes for the 17.32 from Falmer.
It's just uneccessary, and there has been a long time for Southern to think about this. Apart from anything else, sensible timetabling going East is going to alleviate the problems going West. A lot of people from Mid Sussex might rather go via Lewes.
