But it's not just the trains.
I've been saying that the complete transport situation needs to be looked at since the Amex was opened, and was told there wasn't a problem.

The trains are crap at the moment, so I don't use them. I cycle. You've got a bike, Notters. You know it makes sense/
Didn't go by train, and will go.....again not by train......
Hopefully anyone travelling by train will get a half-decent service

Don't mind so much on a Saturday if the the trains are buggered up a bit, you have got a better chance of getting home before Sunday, its the evening games that travelling is a pain in the arris

It's a real shame the trains are bordering on the unusable at the moment but the P&R facilities are on the whole well organised and no problem to use - unless you cut it too fine before the game.

Quality over quantity
Tickets are £15 and you need to be part of the students union (or at least have a Sussex uni email account) as far as I am aware

I agree. There's no chance that I'm going to the Leeds game now but looking forward to Saturday

Very true. Although admittedly fans should have more time to get home with the game being a 3pm kick-off, before services finally grind to a halt and stations are locked up.

Will the trains be sorted for any of these Friday nights ?
Imagine their ENORMOUS support will be a bit less tolerant to delays as well. Could get feisty.
If things carry on as they are, I can see this train fiasco having a massively detrimental effect on our prospects this season.
Evening games are going to become practically impossible for thousands of supporters and far too much senior management time is going to spent tangling with transport issues rather than running the football club.

If Hurstpierpoint is indeed where you live, surely you could make the Leeds match. What is the problem? Can you not go by car? No one to help you with a lift? If you go by train, how would get to the nearest station? presumably by car?

FARK. I forgot Cardiff had been moved. That's another game I can't go to
Not to mention the effect of reduced atmosphere on results - even if just one point - and the reduced income from ticket sales and booze.

I went Friday for the first time in a couple of years I think, transport was a little frustrating but no harm done, going to go again Saturday.
Honestly dont see why a Brighton fan would be put off that much, especially given how good the season is going. Unless you HAVE to get back for a set time I really dont see what difference it makes

Of course I could go but I'm not taking the risk, it took me hours to get home last Friday and I have work on Saturday morning so I will watch it in the pub. The other option is to leave early and I know how well that goes down with everyone. As I say if that make me a bad fan I'm sorry but I am looking forward to Saturday
You clearly don't have a baby that wakes up at 4.30am every day.

Was Cardiff actually moved, or originally scheduled for the Friday night anyway as part of the New Year football program ?FARK. I forgot Cardiff had been moved. That's another game I can't go to
