    Guys,

    Just sorting out my travel arrangements out for Saturday's game, if you get the train from London Victoria, is a further train ticket required to get to the Amex?

    On the National Rail enquiries web site, there is no train station showing for Withdean.

    Plus, how much longer is the journey from Brighton to the Amex, on train and walking?

    Cheers

    UTT!

    The station that you need for the AMEX is called Falmer. Best route is from London Bridge, change in Brighton. Right now you can get a £10 return from London to Brighton. Then its £3.30 return from Brighton to Falmer. I read somewhere that the train from Brighton to Falmer is free with the match ticket but I couldn't see a reference to that anywhere.

    Train is between 6 and 9 minutes from Brighton to Falmer. On some trains is the 1st stop out of Brighton, on others there are 1 or 2 stops in between.

    I wouldn't advise walking, it's a few miles from the centre of Brighton.

    It was free from Brighton to Falmer last year - if you have your match ticket check what it says on reverse - mine is arriving with fellow Tigers follower on Thursday so can't tell you for definate.

    Your match ticket should have details of free travel between Brighton and Falmer . Mine's not arrived yet so can't check.

    Only an hour and half for me this one so pretty local, driving down with a couple of mates and then grab the park and ride from mill road only about 10 mins so nice and easy. Anyone know how many tickets weve sold.

    Brighton season ticket holder has told me Mithras House is a better option.
