Brighton Fan here to help if u have any questions

Got Hotel bookee for the Saturday in Brighton, would you advise driving to Lewes on the sunday and leaving the car there before heading off to the ground?

Quoted from Ashby mariner

Hello

Thanks for posting on here.

Really looking forward to the game I'm sure you are too!

I'm coming down in my motorhome for the weekend. Is there any parking spots you could recommend please?

Thanks

Thinking of doing the same, but will probably use a local campsite.

Have you got park4night app? There will be some places on there.

sorry for delay in coming back to you but your forum only allows 10 messages per day - what is this North Korea

anbyway - yes drive to lewes on Sunday morning and then jump on the train (1 stop to falmer) cost is included in your match ticket.
Do the reverse after the game, back to your car but hopefully in not too happy a mood

Is there a good chance you’ll rest your first eleven,European aspirations, and put out a 2nd stream team?

Definitely not, our manager is cut from a different cloth to what we're used to in England, he just wants to win every game regardless of what's coming up, he will definitely field our strongest available eleven.

In that case, is your squad overdue a massive norovirus outbreak?

I hear bird flu is about to break out in the Brighton area in the next few days.

Hi seagulls,

Does Brighton do that thing that southampton do with a red carpet, lights and an announcer for the home and away teams when they get off their coaches? How long before kick off does that take place?

Never seen it before, no idea if that's the norm at you clubs feasting at the premiership table nowadays

Quoted from Seagulls eat Haddock

as I understand it I think we are fine with it and some of our fans are even bringing inflatable seagulls to take you down

Escalating the inflatable war with yet more inflatables is 120% the correct way to go IMO.  It's fun, it's humourous, and it avoids Mariachi v2.0......

No we don't do that, our players arrive in their own cars as they have their own carpark and they generally get to the ground about 4 hours b4 kick off for prematch meal

Away teams tend to arrive around 90mins before kick off but that varies (Aston Villa were stuck in traffic last year and arrived with about 15 mins to spare) .your team may decide to come earlier as its a big occasion so if you want to see them arrive id guess about 2hours before kick off.

But there will be no lightshow or announcer

Heres a quick vid of Newcastle arriving so you can see what its like

Thanks for offering  any advice, very much appreciated. Just a few questions.

1. Can you recommend where’s the best place to drop the missus off that’ll keep her occupied whilst I go to the match, is there a certain part of the seafront that’s popular or a nice shopping centre for example?

2. I’m parking at The Avenue, if I was to meet the missus back at the car after the game can you recommend a taxi firm that she can use or is there a bus service in that area?

3. I’m staying at Offham on the Saturday, regarding question 1 is there perhaps anything around that area that would keep the missus occupied during the match?
Thanks.
