Not this time but used soccer express in the past and they've been good - however I know others have had issues  but that was more about them withdrawing their coach when there wasn't enough demand for one, won't have that problem!


Thanks!

Was looking at coach and hotel deal through Soccer Express, staying at the Cavendish in Eastbourne, until I read the reviews for the hotel.  

Decided to go on the Sunday with Soccer Express or Acklams, as they seem the only choice for coaches.

Anyone going with either of those?

Used Soccer Express for the FGR play off game and they were decent. Not used Acklams before.


I would have said that Acklams were ok from what I've seen of them out and about, but then I found out it was one of their fleet that had the "EU//NHS £350 million" on the side of it, so can you actually trust them? 😉

I believe they are the coach company that Town use. So in a nutshell yes you can trust them.



You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

The pier at 5 and then on to somewhere to watch potential opponents in the semi when Man City take on Burnley?

Staying in the premier inn , Horsham

In the centre of the Market Town

A load of us staying here so either out in Horsham on the Saturday or drive into Brighton

About 18 miles from Horsham to Brighton


Hi,

Brighton fan (STH) in peace (been reading your forum since the draw and using the predictor for a long time before that!)

I live in Horsham, if you are your mates need some pub recommendations, or suggestions on places to eat, let me know.

Remember for the game (if you are getting the train) you only need to buy a ticket to Haywards Heath. After that, travel is included in the price of the match ticket.

Cheers and enjoy the weekend (but not too much!)

I’m travelling to Brighton tomorrow night and staying there for the weekend, so will be heading to the game via Brighton station. However, I’ll be meeting my mate at the ground who has the tickets; presumably I’ll need to buy a single from Brighton to Falmer, then use my match ticket for the return, correct?

Hi mate,

Always enjoy your posts on NSC... (Kuipers Supporters Club on there)

So, just to be clear, you are meeting your mate on matchday at the ground who has the tickets? That's how I've understood it.

The answer is, no. You won't need a ticket to travel from Brighton to Falmer on matchday. There is a dedicated platform / queuing system for fans and tickets aren't checked.

Just give yourself enough time at the station. Southern mucked up last night and there were still fans coming in when March scored.

yeah you wont need your match ticket to get a free train ride to the ground mate, there will be thousands of fans going through - they dont even try to check tickets as its pretty obvious where everyone is going
