No chance it will be full.
Just had a few beers with fellow sth's and we're not there.
I reckon we won't be the only ones tonight.

I was very impressed today, that most of the fans who seem to leg it five minutes before the end, hung on to watch til the end.
How could you not - it was stress until the second went in and that was the last kick of the game!

Best journey from Eastbourne too today using Mithras House, no queuing at all. Same post-match, straight onto a 25 bus - home within 40 minutes.
Was there any need to delay KO ? It was pretty full at 7.45, as were the concourses.

I thought it a shame that our possibly final home game of the season, with so much at stake, had so many empty seats.

Didn't help that they cancelled the 22:07 which would have been the second train back to Brighton after the final whistle. Though the station staff made a pretty good effort at filling the eight carriage 22:16 (still a few empty seats towards the back when it left though).

Silly old bat
I thought I heard a comment on TV that one of the assistant referees was delayed on the way there. I had to watch the game at home due to being unwell.
Lewes trains better than normal for an evening game. Stayed for the 'lap of appreciation' but was still back in Lewes around 10.35 and home before 11. Atmosphere was good tonight, shame so many STHs didn't bother but their loss.

If you'd been at Brighton Station on the way tonight, you'd have known the answer. Your friends from Southern Railway decided to put on a two-coach train on the second to last train scheduled to get to Falmer in time. The train after that was unable to take all those unable to get onto that one. I was also very glad the kick off was delayed after the slow run down from Victoria on the Gatwick Express.
Just before me..

Primary data is fact
Is this about normal time for you guys?
Our son lives near the Oval and he's stopped coming to evening games because he gets back so late. TBH, I hadn't appreciated that he wasn't getting home until 3.5 hours after the game had finished.
