[Albion] Cardiff Away 12:30 KO Saturday 10th November

[Official Old Man]

Hotels for the weekend around £255 (2 nights). Including Premier Inn a few miles out of town where we met many supporters a few years back. Looks like a dash in just for the game. At least getting out should be easy with the egg chasers coming in at around that time.
Parking is very easy at the ground but getting out is a pain.

 

[Peter Grummit]

NB think their is engineering work and no trains between Brighton and Three Bridges, oping to get there around 09:45 for breakfast in the Spoons

This plus astronomical hotel prices due to Wales rugby plus live TV equals small away crowd.

Gone for the Hilton in the centre......rates not unreasonable TBH
Parked in the ground last time and didn't have any issues getting out. May be a bit busier this time.

Very early start as need to get a train from Three Bridges around 6 to make the 07:45 from Paddington, grrr

Still, tickets purchased

Looked to me they could even sell out the home stands for their game on sat v Man City. Lots of empty seats. I think we will sell our allocation

I thought that, until you looked closely so that when you saw the “empty seats” they were in fact fans wearing blue ponchos. Must have got a job lot from Withdean!

Trains all booked for this. Arrive in Cardiff just before 11.

I have tried to book a few times but all the rail sites are saying they can't garuntee the service until the start of October. Something about bus replacements in Bristol as well.

 

[Joe Gatting's Dad]

This new ticket system is daft. Only selling bock 123 which means the best seat I can have is in Row "Q" - what happened to the choice of front, middle or back. Only back now available. Three other blocks not released. Stupid.

It was so much easier in the 90s....

Last time I did this stayed with family in Parkdean site at Porthcawl easy bus ride to Bridgend then 20 minute train journey to Cardiff, just had a look, you can do 3 nights in a basic caravan for £120.

So, to get this straight:
- 3 nights in a caravan
- in Porthcawl
- in November

Hmmmm....let me think about this one

Sold out for Palace’s game presumably

Cheaper tickets for 60+ rather than the usual 65+ (not applicable to me obviously).

Good stuff

That was the same at Swansea last year - I think life expectancy must be lower in South Wales....

 

[Superphil]

The other year was the wettest that I have ever got two rows from the back of the stand!
May be a different tactical buying strategy tomorrow.

Bought mine 2nd to back row

They're lovely in november ,as by then most are classed as floating panoramic seaview accommodation for the same price .

Got my ticket. I think I have seen our last 3 games there and haven’t seen us score. Hope for better this time!

 

[Kalimantan Gull]

OK, this one might be my first of the season. Hoping tickets fall to me. Last time I saw us play in Cardiff was a very nice 3-1 win wearing green with Poyet's 4 central midfielders strategy that worked a blinder

Not seen that. Booked form London Paddington and fingers crossed. Certainly don’t want to drive.

Probably take the caravan home with them as well
