Thanks to those who answered my question. With predicted bad weather on its way I think that I will settle for TV in the pub as I have been to Anfield a number of times

I am assuming tickets start going on sale tomorrow, if we are allocated 7,000 we might not actually sell out

The timing of this match really IS a massive BITCH, to be honest, but regardless, we'll still be there.

Getting my two boys home at 11.30pm the night before they go back to school is FAR from ideal, to be honest, but in ten years time they'll remember the Albion's famous win at Anfield, not that they were tired at school on the Monday!

Obviously we MIGHT not actually win, but regardless - its a chance for them to see Brighton at one of the WORLD'S most famous football stadiums. It might get pulled down sometime soon(ish) - this could be the last chance...

Exactly this. There's always early bed Monday night to help catch up. I used to take mine to London midweek away's such as Millwall & Orient but knocked that on the head now as school gets more serious. However, this is one trip it would be cruel to deny him I think.

Would have preferred any other kick-off time but both me and the missus think we can negotiate holiday for Monday morning. Probably. We hope. Travel booked, hotel booked, assuming loyalty points will allow us to get tickets booked. On the off-chance that BHA don't make it to the Premier League soon this may be the last opportunity for a while to compete at Anfield, so it's worth stretching for.

It's a case of family first and my 10 year old says we have to go so that's what we will do!!!!!! Great Memories are what make your life, like driving from Dungeness to Brighton in 83 and queing all day for a replay ticket.

I've been there twice in the eighties.

The first time it took me about a 20 minute casual walk.

However, the following time, it only took me 5 minutes.

Mind you, I did run bloody quickly in those days after calling them scouse wankers.

This, I've also quoted 11.30pm to the wife but suspect it will be more like 1-2am!!!!

Never missed a game when we've played Liverpool since our rise to the top flight and will not be missing this one.
