[Albion] Mill Hill P&R on Saturday

[thedonkeycentrehalf]

I can confirm this as today I waited in the rain for a EDF park and ride bus after the game for 45 minutes and counted 7 of them coming into the Amex and picking up for Mill Hill .

With EDF, I've found that if you don't get out quick enough to make the first set of buses, it is better just to wait on the concourses for a while as they will take some time to do the round trip. We had a drink and a chat for about 45 minutes and walked straight onto an EDF bus with no queue.

Yep, for EDF they seem to have 3 or 4 buses ready and waiting. TBH we’ve always made those buses despite waiting for son to saunter up from the West Lower.
Compared to train it is 100% better. Last two times used on a Sunday have been back to East Preston by 5.10pm.

Was asked to prove I was attending the game today when I pulled up to Mill Road, cue me getting flustered and finding my season ticket had disappeared from my apple wallet. Luckily I had a Brighton sticker on the back of my car which seemed enough to let me through.

Anyone else had this? I’ve used Mill Road all season and it’s the first time I’ve had to prove I was going to the game. I thought it might be to keep Chelsea fans out but there were plenty of them on the buses as well. Is there any other reason someone not going to the game would want to park there?

Never been asked to prove going to the game. Parked there tonight and all ok. Know cars do turn around when realising its football only. Wonder if they are seeing more cars trying to use Mill Road rather than A27

I swear, I wasn't anywhere near there.

Barely a queue earlier at the top of Mill Road.

But an A27 jam the entire way. Lesson: leave home even earlier in future!

 

[Peacehaven Wild Kids]

Maybe out of £115m the club could buy a few of their own buses and drivers?

3 trips there, 3 trips back, 20 matches a season, £5 a head (?) It'd take 20 years to cover the cost.

Straight onto a Mill Road bus.

Running so smoothly this season, a two minute wait and already on a bus.

It’s the getting back that is a ball ache I switched to the RC and seem to be back quicker leaving just after FT.

Yep, I have the dilemma of leave on 90’ and jog round to buses, or get home an hour later (we’re not into boozing from plastic beakers whilst standing in a windowless concourse).

So for Liverpool onwards I’m cycling. Bike locks ordered.

I’m with you there alcohol served in plastic is just wrong.
