The Premier League and TV companies are a bunch of *****.

I can't wait to booooo the travel arrangements.

Hard to decide without the club announcing what extra provision there will be. National Rail journey planner says no trains from Falmer to Brighton at 21:45 and Brighton Buses journey planner says no buses running at that time. Unless you can walk, cycle, get a coach, or drive then it is impossible to get home as no public transport it seems.

The train driver had the whole platform at Falmer to aim for, and he missed...

Walk from kitchen boozing to sitting room boozing. Seems fairly straightforward.

I bet his approach up the track to just before the station was absolutely wonderful though.

At this point, we can confirm Park and Ride sites to the Amex Stadium from the following locations:

Brendon’s Equestrian Centre – Pyecombe
ASDA – Hollingbury
Sainsbury’s – West Hove
Mill Road – Patcham
Brighton Racecourse

Please note, ASDA, Sainsbury’s and the Equestrian Centre will require booking in advance, due to limited parking spaces. Details of how to book will be advised soon.

This is my plan also, I suspect with many thousands of others.

The pretendance is going to be ridiculous.

Thinking of walking off the Xmas dinner and going on foot..............possibly from the Beacon

Thanks. Good to see West Hove Sainsbury's included.

15,000 in the ground, do you think? If that, I reckon.

 

[Is it PotG?]

1901 still get executive transport to and fro.

 

[Knightsworld]

Thanks. Good to see West Hove Sainsbury's included.

As I don't drive, that's increased my probability in going.

 

[Originunknown]

There is additional park and ride as posted by Thunder Bolt. Expect there will be a reduced train and local bus service too but not seen any details on this yet.

Booo

On previous Boxing Day matches there has been similar talk of no public transport and then on the day it turns out that there are enough trains running for Sussex based fans to use.

Anyone know if that is likely to happen again? (Ernest always used to be the train expert...)

 

[PeterT]

345 parking spaces at Sussex Uni have just been put for sale for Boxing day

 

[highflyer]

Given family pressures, transport is the least of my problems in terms of attending. Family comes first and so it's highly unlikely I will be there.

Stupid, horrible, money grubbing decision. Just IMO like.

Thing is no previous Boxing Day match at the Amex has finished so late before. It'll be about 10pm by the time the masses are leaving. National Rail journey planner saying no trains after the match. Like you say we need someone in the know to say.

I think that's about right, can't see it being any more.
