[Albion] EFL / Carabao Cup Fourth Round draw [Liverpool at home]

[Dirty Dave]

OS says travel scheme is in place for this fixture so presumably train / bus travel included as if it were a league game....

 

[barbus_max bhafc]

Reckon it will be very close to a sell out come Wed afternoon Apparently usual travel zone arrangements are included for the Liverpool cup game, club will be putting something up on the site to confirm this sometime tomorrow according to supporter services

 

[Is it PotG?]

Confirmed travel subsidies in place

£25 + travel was a bit of a piss take IMO because it was making pricing similar to EPL prices, this definitely makes the difference, hats off to the club.

Upper parts of the West Upper are now open

 

[ROSM]

Looks like c2100 home tickets available. Depending on how many away fans seems a very reasonable c29k crowd

 

[brighton_tom]

Roughly 1600 left. Mostly west upper.

The travel scheme is in place for tomorrow night!

Does that mean trains too - travelling down from East Croydon but may only need buy a ticket to Haywards Heath if so?

Edit - answered above sorry

Also do you know what time it comes into operation - don’t want to get a train from Lewes after about 6pm?

I assume it is as normal. Hasn’t been any correspondence to say otherwise.

Should be OK from 4pm going by this

Thinking of going to Mill Road P&R tonight for the first time in about 10 years. When's it likely to be full up by and is it worth just getting dropped off at the top of the road or do they enforce the "no walk ups" policy?

You can definitely just walk up.

 

[brighton_tom]

1175 tickets left. Almost entirely from west upper.

You'll be absolutely fine.

Technically it comes into effect 3 and a half hours before kick off, so if you are passing HH after that then you'll officially be within the rules.

The reality is that you'd be monstrously unlucky to have it go up in your face. I've been taking the train from London to almost every home game for the last decade and once, once, I've had an issue. I took a half day for an evening game and got off the train at 3pm at Brighton only to have a jumped up BTP officer try to stop me going through the barrier. His senior pulled him aside and let me go through without issue. I've never seen anyone have an issue like that aside from that single moment though.

So, not quite a sell out, but the crowd could just about top 30,000. Looks certain to be our third largest league cup attendance ever, behind only Derby in 1976 and Wolves in 1969.

Just seen a tweet from Southern that they are NOT running a match day service tonight due to engineering works! Surely not
If that’s the case then it will be chaos.

Midweek game chaos you say, you must be new here

 

[worthingseagull]

under a 1000 tickets left now and Liverpool also sold all theirs - so will be 'there or thereabouts' a sell out

Hopefully a great atmosphere

Strange. I looked at National Rail Enquiries and there are 5 trains per hour timetabled between Brighton and Falmer from 5pm to 7pm tonight which is an enhanced service.
