"Visiting supporters may be required to remain in the concourse for safety purposes for approximately 25 minutes after the final whistle.

There will be a special train for visiting supporters, and those wishing to use this will be escorted to Falmer Station in good time. The service will call at Three Bridges, East Croydon, Selhurst, Clapham Junction and London Victoria."

An 8 o'clock kick-off puts my home time on seagull travel coach to nearly midnight, home supporters should always get away first, and if that means holding away fans up then so be it.
Annoys me when we have to hang about sitting in coaches to allow the away fans to get going while their fans f**k about holding everyone up.

Gemma Collins is a terminally stupid, hideous, obnoxious waste of oxygen with absolutely no redeeming features … so she wins hands down each time rather than a train full of palace.

I don't really know who Gemma Collins is, but immediately think of Jenna Coleman when I hear the name.
Always confuses me when people start describing her as stupid and disgusting.. and then I remember they are not talking about the totty from Doctor Who.

It's going to be a cold but dry night ... I'm seriously thinking about walking the 4 miles back to Brighton and catching a 700 train (bus :facepalm:) back to Shoreham rather than go clockwise from West Stand and have to queue for ages going up the steps and then waiting on the coach ages as you say! I'll probably get home later but at least I will be on the move and will get some exercise to walk off my pie!!

A 700 train? that might be interesting! It's ok l know what you mean really. It's good that the 700 runs so late, my local Stagecoach route comes to a halt much earlier, with the last bus departing Churchill Square by 7pm.

From the West (even without the whey-faced poltroons in town) it’s quicker to exit up the west ramp (behind the player’s coach), up to the Uni roundabout, turn left and walk along the road back to the bus park than join the scrum up the steps ?

My use of train was a deliberate ploy to see if anyone actually reads my posts :lol:

Not a bad shout that and will probably start doing that going forward [emoji1303]

Can I check that is presumably only for pre booked coaches, and not the park n ride queues as people would be rightly cheesed off at P&R queue jumpers?
