Can't beat a Friday night game. Should be a cracking atmosphere... helps us more than Chelsea IMO
Utter Bollocks

I couldn't give two shits about valentines day, a load of septic crap

Friday night is a f***ing woeful time for football. . . . Especially given the Amex glorious location.

There is some real potential here.

Two fans, one Brighton and one Chelsea,.madly in love. The cameras zone in at half-time, Reynolds rushes over with a charged up mic. One of the amorous couple sinks to one knee and the proposal is made.
The stuff of dreams, would certainly bring a tear to the eye of this cynical and grizzled old geezer.

Oooh yay. Seeing Snow Patrol with the Mrs on the Saturday at the O2 so a Friday night game on this occasion is actually decent for me 😎

I suspect this will be the last year my group of three have a season ticket.

These daft kick off times are beyond ridiculous.

The transport infrastructure for the Amex is just about acceptable for Saturday games. Otherwise, it is entirely inadequate. Evening games are a complete shitshow.

The club don't care. They are happy to pass the buck to SASTA. SASTA couldn't give a flying feck because the way their zombie franchise is structured means there's no commercial imperative for them to do better; the DfT assume the revenue risk.

I'm not paying the thick end of a grand a season to put up with this.

Put the tickets on the exchange, treat yourself to a meal (beware busy restaurants), watch it on TV. Sorted.

Worst night of the year to go out for a meal. Everywhere serving overpriced, crap ‘valentine special’ menus, and places rammed. Definitely spend the money on nice ingredients and a nice bottle of wine and stay at home.

Will we be getting a ‘valentine special’ pie ? :laugh:

Well, yes, however, that's not really the point.

The Amex does not have the transport infrastructure to support evening games. No bendy buses. Fewer car park spaces and the rail service (the prime mover) is diabolical. There is no appetite to improve. The club pass the buck. SASTA don't give a f*ck.


Accept that at the start of the season there are a couple of midweek matchdays scheduled.


Further fixtures being moved to Mondays and Fridays are an abomination.

Remember beating Derby & Reading quite comfortably in 16/17 I think.
I can only remember us losing one Friday game at the Amex which was to Wolves but I think that kicked off at 3pm as it was New Years Day 2016 so doesn’t count as a Friday night game. I haven’t been through every Amex season to double check though.
