Is there a cut-off point for entry to the Amex? I've never been late before and don't know what happens.

I'm tied up with the rugby team on Sunday and have to wait for the match to finish, so I won't get to the Amex until 2.30 at the earliest, possibly not until even later? Can I get in through the usual turnstiles at this time? Is there a time when I can't get in?

Half time, my mate got in by the skin of his teeth at the end of half time and the chief steward explained they are bound by policy/licenses to prevent entry after the second half has kicked off

5 minutes before the WSL starts emptying out.

Maybe just sit this one out and find the nearest pub with a telly?

Well,the pub by Hove station is five minutes away so that's an easy option. I'm loath to miss the game though, I'd get into grief as to why I didn't use my ticket.

It's been a mess-up all round. The game was originally at Horsham so would have no chance of making it; then it was switched to Hove at 12 ... so I bought a ticket. And then it got moved to 12.45 and I'm stuffed

Are you sure ‘being tied up with the rugby team’ is something you should share on NSC @Gwylan? Bet you’re glad it’s nearly the cricket season!

Won't let you in after the second half starts. Leicester last season, took over 3 hours to get there from.london by car.

That half-time fish and chip guy didnt think his analysis through.

if you’re late you need to be prepared for a bit of abuse from fans you disturb who are concentrating on the game - particularly if you’re in my row!

Tut tut, egg chasing when you could be watching the Albion in an FA Cup Quarter-Final, whatever were you thinking?
