Brighton Fan here to help if u have any questions

Quoted from bradzmilne

Brighton on a Friday night/Saturday… Where are you recommending mate ?

If you want to enjoy good lively bars - then head for The Lanes area which runs right down to the seafront - literally hundreds of pubs/bars/clubs

If you want to also try and find other town fans then groups of you lot are more likely to be allowed in to The King & Queen, Wetherspoons down West Street, the bars literally on the beach and maybe The Font in the daytime but possibly not at night time (you'd have to try it and see

It's pretty hard trying to recommend specifics out side of these ones as we are so blessed with literally hundreds of bars/pubs - you'll love it

Specific advice for matchday - Dont enjoy it so much that you end up missing the game - it will take about 20/30 minutes to stagger up from the City bars area to the station and there youll find thousands of others all trying to get on the trains to the stadium, so allow time to get there. With a 2.15 kick off I wouldnt want to be leaving the city centre pubs any later than 1.00pm really and that might be tight depending on the numbers doing the same. Don't forget you can have more beers at the ground

I reckon the sodomist has shares in the concourse bars.

Shame to see this, thought it was a decent forum until now.

It is a decent forum (mostly anyway). Don't let one post put you off, I'm sure Mayaman was saying that with his tongue firmly in his cheek.

Quoted from Rodley Mariner

I'm stopping in central Brighton with my kids on the Saturday night but need to get north straight after kick off. Where is the best place to park on the Sunday to be able to have a pint before the game but then be the right side of the Amex to head north after it finishes? Assuming it will be slow to head back into central Brighton and then try to get out again?

You’re leaving straight after kick off? Odd 😂

Quoted from Seagulls eat Haddock

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

Our players arrive on bikes with baskets on the front for their boots and packed lunch.  The players are looking forward to the game especially the hot showers as it will be the first time for many of them since the energy crisis started

Honestly mate  I am sure this was said with  tongue in cheek with huge smile on face

All the Brighton fans that have come on here have been brill and a credit to your club  

Albion fans are understandably a little touchy around comments such as the above even if they are made in jest. It stems from years of homophobic abuse by visiting fans of other clubs and whilst it may be amusing to some, calling someone a sodomist for a giggle doesn't go down too well....unlike your mum.

Might be a quirk of the swear filter on here, which changes “búgger” to sodomist.
