I've read there is 3 good park and rides in which are free with your match ticket? Will this not be the case for our game?

There’s only been 2 for a couple seasons now.

Mill Road is the most popular and is usually full an hour and a half or two hours before kick off as this is just off the dual carriageway.

The other P&R is at the Brighton racecourse, if parking there though I wouldn’t recommend wearing your best shoes or trainers for obvious reasons.

Those coming by train on the day only need to get return tickets to Haywards Heath from there the match day ticket includes travel, might save you a few quid

Well worth considering parking in surrounding towns and getting the (free) trains in as another option if you’re driving - Lewes (great variety of pubs), Burgess Hill, Hassocks and Haywards Heath all have plenty of parking and are short train journeys to the stadium (via Lewes or Brighton for the last three). The P&Rs are fine but Mill Road fills up quickly and getting back after can take a while.

You may also see cars parked on the grass verges past the ground up the hill (The Drove/Falmer Road) if you drive that way - don’t be tempted, they are almost always ticketed as the road has double yellows most of the way up.

Are you in the Brighton hospitality or the Town allocation? I'm in the West Stand hospitality hopefully there'll be few Town in there - I was ringing all day Friday to try and get in the GTFC hospitality allocation but couldn't get through and it was sold out by the time I did. I got the second-to-last Brighton place - probably in the whole stadium - it is the most expensive ticket I've ever bought for a Town game.

Telll the truth not sure where i am going  but hope to be
above South stand hospitality  apparently where our  fans will be, according to Brighton fan.
I paid £210 total not ashamed  to admit it ,to be
there as i was not lucky to be one of "4621 Club".
Scary thing is never gone "posh" for Grimsby Footie match in my life so i e-mailed
Brighton for guidance on "Dress code& Etiquette "
to get it right etc.
Can you wear town shirt/ take an inflatable etc.
So if iam in West stand i will see you there.
Like you most expensive ticket i have bought but
Sure will be worth it come the day.
