I was just going by what Chelsea had said and the figures are what they quote so I assume they are correct - I imagine the home club can give what they want to the away club

Rough maths has c4,200 unsold, so we're probably looking at something like...
4,200 unsold
5,000 not on sale (complete guess, frankly)
6,000 Chelsea
31,700 - (4,200+5,000+6,000) =16,500 Albion fans

yep. ta. surprised its possible - i thought 15% was the upper limit - but yep they originally did say they had 4915 tickets so i guess they now have 5915 - ie: 18%
FA Cup ticket news: Brighton away
Ticket selling details have been announced for next month’s fourth-round tie on the South Coast.

Whilst the WSU might not now be available, I would suspect many sth had already purchased their tickets so difficult to know how many are left in that area. Seem to remember for a previous game they withdrew tickets but at the match it was still more than half full.

Yeah, 11.15/11.30 a bit optimistic.
After 23.23, there is just ONE train - the 00.02!
Good luck getting on that....
(that train is normally rammed anyway on a Sat night, with kidz returning from a night out in Brighton)

3000 was enough of them for the evening game last season...

Yeah, it's a complete guess on what may have been withdrawn from both WSU and ESU.

A bit like the big FBS party on the beach that time. About 100,000 Londoners looked up the timetable and just sort of assumed they could stroll on to that last train

And that 00.02 train is normally full anyway on a Sat night. Add a few thousand Chelsea fans, plus all the BHA fans who live on that route...A bit like the big FBS party on the beach that time.

And if you're even going westbound as far as Worthing you've got (as per timetable) the choice of the 23:10, 23:40 or 00:10. Probably four carriages apiece. Then that's yer lot til 7am the following morning. Do you feel lucky, punk?

That's me. Can I presume I'm going to be able to lounge sideways across mine and the adjacent seats?

Where are the public announcements about these changes? Surely the club should be emailing them to all STHs and fans on the mailing list to reassure them.

Too late. They’ve been reading NSC. Scared the life out of them. Already planning to leave at half time.

Because they’re in the timetable that published online by multiple train companies/websites, it’s open source information. It’s the same plan as every Saturday. Doesn’t help that people panic when they haven’t done research on the train service. The club cannot spoon feed fans information. People have to make their own decisions. Two additional Lewes Shuttles for a certain length of time either side of kick off and full time.

As an aside, me and my son are season ticket holders, haven't missed an awful lot this season but can't make the Chelsea cup game primarily because we live in the Midlands and he is doing something else on the Sunday morning which makes a 20.00 KO impossible to do both.
So, he wants to go to Coventry v Ipswich as the local game with his mates on the Saturday. Fair enough. He never watches football with his mates. There are a boat load of tickets available at knock down prices for that game. Point being, it's not just us who can't flog a shit load of FA Cup tickets. In Cov's case, against a team in the division above at 15.00 on a Saturday.

More likely to be going to Scarborough Fayre.
