My office on Preston Park is a touch over an hour, about 65 mins.Helpful to know maybe we cn ahave a thread of how long it takes to walk after the match to other locations.

Mickey Mousers everywhere.At the back of the ramp.. Queues for miles.
Like a shit Disneyland.
I stayed chatting pitchside …..until seats were as good as empty……visited the toilets etc ….then strolled down to get past the queues to the Bridge carpark..and it was awful….longtime since I’ve seen it that bad
I’d say it’s been as bad tonight probably as on dozens of other occasions, we just forget. Unfortunately the Amex has a reputation, especially for evening games. Hence the ‘predictable’ assertion and why many fans knowingly skip now, especially if longer journeys. Transport just too predictably bad. Glad you’re able to get to and from tonight regardless, even though bad.I knew it was likely to be bad, but have never seen it that bad. I’m not complaining, just reporting in from the field. Went to support my team, a little patience is all it took!
If they were you still get the queue from the next set of lights towards BrightonOnly second time I’ve seen that car park.
The obvious issue is that the traffic light sequence lets out bugger all cars at a time, then stays red for minutes.
Can these things be manually adjusted for events?

I think this must be rare (at least I would hope so) because the stewards are normally very hot on this looking out for exactly this.First time with a bike, after final whistle I walked past the colossal queue for trains. Noticeable that many folk furtively skipped possibly 1000’s, then queue jumped just before the barriers start.
Surprised that no one says anything!

Some want to support more than othersEveryone wants to support the team, it’s whether you can get home, and/or at a reasonable hour.
I almost always get the train from / back to Brighton. This only happens mid week but it happens almost every mid week game.It was before the stewards who were based along the barriers. In the vast maelstrom before then.
I’d also add into the factor that some fans ask their significant others to meet them either on or around the bridge over yhe A27. They park illegally and block the road for fans that have paid £18 to legitimately get to and from the ground. Thoose that do this are (and I apologise in advance for using such language) complete ****s.Only second time I’ve seen that car park.

Once the queue gets past the barriers it’s a free for all. People spread out wider than the queue lane but also leave gaps. Always a few opportunists who notice when people aren’t moving up. People not moving up are normally tourists, off their nut or glued to their phone.
Indeed, even when 16points adrift at the bottom of L2.Some want to support more than others
Me too! Think I shall be doing this more often. I can see though if you leave it too late there might not be space to park at the decent bike racks.First time with a bike, after final whistle I walked past the colossal queue for trains.

Very often they don’t notice. It’s older chaps with queuing standards who get annoyed.I thought the old coke/booze combo and British belligerence might lead to words being said?
