A different kind of pasty
Cost is not too much of an issue for me personally as I have an annual season ticket to London for work. Cheers for the tip though.

Stadium was lovely. Even though my seat was rarely used, i really hope they have the same seats for Falmer. They were wide, cushioned and comfortable. It was a shame to have to go back to the Withdean after seeing what falmer could be like.

Huddersfield was the last away game last season as I flew over for it and the Stockport game at Withdean. I shall be doing the same again this year and visiting the MK Stadium for the first time and attending the Yeovil game as well.

I meant wasn't Bristol Rovers after MK Dons as well (but before Hudds)! WHo can forget that day in Yorkshire?!

As far as a new stadium goes its pretty good, from the outside it looks fairly big.
Its only when you walk in that you find ground level is about half way up the stands and that the pitch is a lot lower, that the full size of the ampitheatre becomes apparent.
Just a shame it belongs to a team that shouldn't exist.
Having said that the Emirates its not and the finish in places is not great. Lets hope the Buckingham Group do better with Falmer.
Personally I still prefer the New Den.

Why? Grotty food, and a grotty food eating area. And 4 very simple stands? What's special?

Didn't we have Colchester away after MK Dons as well?

Just that I don't like wrap around grounds that much.
As for grotty food surely that could be levelled at every football league ground.

I wouldn't say so. I can eat the burgers at Withdean. But the burgers sold at some ground which come in SWEATY silver bags, I can't.

Can't believe nobody has mentioned the LEGENDARY "left side, right side" that took place there last season. Surely we can beat it this year? Surely someone remembers it?
On the national rail website it says only engineering work on the underground: "Engineering work on London Underground on Saturday 1, Sunday 2 and Monday 3 May 2010". But the Victoria line which runs from Victoria station to Euston is not effected. Only Bakerloo, Circle, District, Hammersmith and City, Jubilee, Metropolitan and Waterloo and City lines are disrupted.

So you should be alright to travel to the stadium

surely the national rail website should flag this when planning a route, I only got informed of the underground changes.I've never been made ill by food at a football ground (or anywhere else) except by food from the withdean.
