    Great for me, I am delighted, will be a tough game if we don't take it seriously. Looking forward to seeing their new stadium.

    i had a feeling we would get drawn away against brighton, i work there on match days.

    just a few pointers on the new ground...... if you didnt already know.

    the ground is outside of the city in falmer and there are no pubs around the ground so if you want a beer before the game you will have to drink inside the ground or stop off somewhere on the way down.

    there is a park and ride service to and from the car parks but the coaches for away fans park right outside.

    trains run to falmer station on a regular basis whcih is how the majority of match goers travel and they get rammed full.

    the match should be a sell out and they make a right racket.

    the coppers are quite decent but take no prisoners mind so be careful.

    I hear they have digital picture frames etc in the away end, so when we are there, there will be pics of Shack, Cloughie, Phillips etc, and red lighting etc.

    What a great idea, and kudos to the designers for creating a welcoming environment for the away fans.

    Look forward to seeing them in the Premier League ina couple of years, the club and fans deserve it after the **** the council put them through getting the stadium built.

    Poyet is a man with a lot of class as well, if we were looking for a new manager tomorrow, i'd be putting him forward as a contender.

    It's not out of the question like, just would have liked a good day on the sauce. Real ale on tap to home fans in the ground, local bottled beers for away fans so Maximus and Double Maxim for us.

    Decent mate.

    I've just looked, it's 175 euro if it's the Tues, 154 euro if it's Weds, so not too bad.

    Same as you, just fancy a look at the new stadium, haven't been many, remember the year we opened the SOL, there was Bolton & Derby in the same year.

    Let me know if you go down mate <ok>

    i'm chuffed to bits with this draw, since i've moved down south i've had few chances to get to many games and this isn't far from me at all. plus i work with a load of Brighton fans so should be a good craic. it is a bit of nightmare that the new ground is a bit out of the way but everything i've heard about the ground sounds really impressive
