What about selfish buggers who enjoy their own company? How do you incentivise people to car share?

Reminds me of Jakarta where it used to be mandatory for cars to be 3 up to enter the city at rush hour. And crowds of street kids available for hire to fulfill the legal requirement....

All very good, but where's the data for time queuing for public transport, train cancellations, missed connections .... not fancying cycling or walking in the pouring rain, the 60 minutes or more to get out of the Bridge car park.

Can we merge this with the interesting maps thread?

Might well depend upon the ability to walk that far.
Absolutely, and I’m lucky to be physically able to do so. I’m sure others could too though. If I walk back to Lewes via the dual carriageway it’s often pretty much only me and anyone I’m walking with, if I go over the hills I often don’t see a single other person between Black Cap and The Swan in Falmer.

Walking from Brighton isn’t much busier on the pavement. Out of 30,000 people I just find it surprising. I’ve said before, but when the weather is nicer I’ll see if anyone on here wants to join for the hill stroll. It’s a fantastic way to get to the ground.

If the survey had been done in October 2002 it would have looked like this :lol:

I come from BN8 or North Chailey. Leave when players go off pitch (if we win), on final whistle if we lose,, go by train to Lewes, (and then car from there) . And in 13 years i have rarely - once a season at most - not been back in N.Chailey within an hour/70 mins and sometimes before. Pretty much Walked straight onto a train after Chelsea on Saturday night. (left after final whistle)
I know its not easy for some matches - going further West or East - and going to Brighton etc. Sometimes the club have found replacement buses , Its a pain in the queue sometimes, and often cold/wet etc. - But there you go.

98% of people live within 1 mile of another season ticket holder is an amazing stat.

Until you realise even though I live near Coventry I actually live in the same house as another one.

Quite interested who the others are though. I've never met them.

Each dot is a season ticket holder.

Mental.
I'm feeling rather isolated. It would take me 1hr 20m to reach any of my neighbours!

Agree that that map is mad and shows you how dedicated football fans are. And makes you realise why we weren't all delighted at Saturday's 8pm kick off.

I watched the video and, while the data was interesting, the analysis was pretty weak.

How did he get all of our data to plot that map?

It's actually quite interesting.

Of particular note...

- Cycling - 1% of fans cycling, but 21% could. PBOBE is gonna need a bigger bike shed
I take it "could" relates to their residential proximity to the Amex, rather than, say, their BMI and current aerobic capacity?
