what's the best plan for parking next weekend? I ve heard parking is more of a bitch than the Withdean. Advice please?
However you try to get there it will be hell. I got there at 6:00pm for a 7:45pm kick off against Palace and it was already chaos at Brighton train station (big queues and packed trains going towards Falmer). However, trying to drive to the ground means massive queues (and I think parking is for home fans only who have permits). You HAVE to get there really early. Parking in Brighton is hideously expensive but possible. The buses coming back out (or the trains) are ridiculous too. My tip would be to get there around 3pm and have some food at the ground (no drinks since you are driving!) and then hot foot it out the ground at the final whistle. The only sensible thing to do is to get a room for the night or be prepared to drive through the early hours...... not good news I'm afraid. Even the Brighton fans are up in arms about it! The info below is very true. http://www.footballgroundguide.com/brighton_and_hove_albion/#How To Get There And Where To Park
no parking for away fans is a bit ****e!.. staying over, so was gona jump in a taxi there, but doesnt help getting back into town...how far is it roughly, joggable?
It's nearly five miles, how fit are you feeling? I'm planning on trying to get the same cabbie that drops me off, to come back and get me.
not that fit unfortunately. looks like my powers of diplomacy and negotiation may be required. Either that or I register for a University course at the Brighton College. Possibly in physical education it seems!!
for such a nice new ground the parking situation appears to be a joke and ill thought out. makes you feel great they we have that massive car park on walton street.
their 'customer service' department justify the rip-off prices as a contribution to the green effort!!
We got sent free rail tickets from Brighton Station to the ground with our batch of tickets (nice gesture from Brighton). It seems that the station gets a bit busy, so the only thing weâll have to decide on, is what time we have our last pint before leaving for the ground.
oh thats what you call them ? ignorant southeners. i would say they are closer to that watchdog programme and rogue traders. yes we got the free tickets but the attitude down there &*%$£" calling matt allwright, calling matt allwright, come in matt.
I wouldn't call Matt Allwright if my life depended on it, irritating little ****er. And Dom Littlewood is equally ****erish.
love em both. they really do get up the noses of the rogues in this country. dom littlewood has done much good. great entertainment they are. your very harsh over them both olm but each to there own.
