[Albion] Is the EDF park in ride in place for Sunday?

[Dinner with Gotsmanov]

Hi ,

Sorry, I a. Sure I have seen a thread about this but cannot find it and cannot see anything on club website. I am a total incompetent with regards to things like this so thought I would ask the NSC community- is it in place for this Sunday and if so, how do I go about booking?

Any help gratefully received and please do not hold back on the good natured abuse towards me for being such a total IT clot.

cheers

Sunday…..but I haven’t seen it yet

Nothing listed yet. For Bournemouth, EDF went on sale on the Monday (equivalent of today). Hope I'm wrong but I think it's only been used when there were rail issues and a university event. Makes the journey so much easier.

Thanks both. I will keep,a watchful eye just in case but it’s not looking likely….

Pyecombe has gone on

I did a chat with the club just now and asked them. They said at this moment in time no, as EDF hadn't said yes yet. I've booked Pyecombe instead on that basis.

Pyecombe has gone on

Thanks. It looks like Mrs Wz may well be making her decennial trip to see the Albion Sunday, and if I make her suffer Mill Road in it's current form, she may never go again (quite apart from the earache I would get for the rest of the day)

Anyone know how long it takes to get away on Pyecombe P&R after final whistle ?

For anyone wondering, Pyecombe was terrific for the Bournemouth game. Ok, yes the stewards at the ground had no idea where it was picking up from post match, but eventually we found a grown up to ask...(at the top of village way next by the Brighton Uni car park).
arriving at the equestrian centre pre match there no queues, walked straight onto a bus, 15 minute transfer to the stadium.
Post match, walk up the slope behind West stand, straight onto a bus again, little bit of traffic on village way getting out after the match but still only took about 20 minutes back to the site, in the car by 4:30 and home in Horsham before 5:00.

In summary, if you're already driving down the A23, or coming over from Lancing/Worthing direction on the A27, you'd be mad not to use it.

In the thread started yesterday about this very subject I pointed out that the EDF P&R for the Bournemouth became available on the Monday before the match so assume this one will too.

Any ideas if this will be in use of the Liverpool game ?

I was waiting for EDF but as Pyecombe is available, I thought I'd give that a try after the train hassles for the Bournemouth game.

Thanks for flagging up Pyecombe availability. Sorted.

You can pretty much guarantee that the train hassles will be the same for every Sunday game. You can try waiting in the concourse for a beer after the game, but you'll only find yourself in a longer train queue than if you hadn't bothered. Might as well walk to the nearest town or get a bus

That is my feeling as well. For the Bournemouth game, we ended up on the Racecourse P&R and walking back from there to the station (with a pub stop on the way).
