The transport issues at the Amex don't help - If you are an away fan with a long journey back you simply want to get back - especially on the back of a defeat. I went to the away game at St. Andrews last year and was in my car and away from the ground within 5 minutes and back in Hove within 2 and a half hours. It took me over an hour and a quarter to get home to Hove from the Sheffield Wednesday game.

It's like it at most grounds. Maybe you should go to away games and then people like you would shut up about how long it takes getting away from the Amex. Took me an hour to get out of Reading and Coventry car parks. Bristol was nightmare.

The Amex is brilliant compared to Millwall. At Millwall you are caged in the ground for an hour with no information and no beers. At the AMEX you can have a few beers, watch post match highlights and interviews and then get an easy train.

I drove to Watford & it took 50 mins to get out of town centre at millwall it took 45 mins to get on a train
The crowds at the Amex are double that of those games & take the same time to get out.

I stated last season that we would not get the same away following this season because we are not a new ground for a lot of teams this season.

This. Watford was a good 20 minute walk to the station and getting penned in at Milwall for half hour or so plus waiting for the train I decided to walk to New Cross instead. IMHO the Amex is no worse than other grounds - especially with the new BRIDGE car park if Away fans want to park near the ground they can...
