Potential transport issues aside, watching the Albion play a hugely important match at the Amex on a (hopefully sunny) May bank holiday afternoon sounds rather nice.

It's not half as inconvenient as a game being rearranged for a work/school night were commuters struggle to get home and kids can't stay up late.

But the sound of that happening on a SATURDAY with ample time to recover on the Sunday before another day off on the Monday sounds even better! :beer:

Absolutely this. Albeit small, there is a chance we could even clinch promotion against Derby which if we do will almost certainly mean having to throw a sicky on the Tuesday now :lolol:

I'm not overly fussed about the move. Was happy with some bank holiday football then that went down a bit with the 'no train' farcical. I will still be there as there are alternative ways of getting to the ground, stop moaning and appreciate how amazing this season has been.

Does anyone know why the national rail enquiries show no trains to Falmer on this bank holiday, but detail a service for the end of May bank holiday ?

The robot chat on National Rail enquiries didn't understand ( a simpler version of ) the question.

Why do people keep saying this as if it's a given? Bournemouth and Hull (when they were there last year) have or have had more Saturday games than us this year.

Is that the plan get in the Premier league to have more Saturday 3pm kick offs? I hope we don't do a Leicester, that will f*ck it up

I just counted Watford's Saturday games. Maybe not all 3 o'clock, but 15!

I get it I'm not thick, but the ambition of the club is to do well in which ever division they happen to be in and if that's the case the fixtures get changed. Its a bit like managers slagging off fixture congestion when they are in 3 competitions at the end of the season - you are victim of your own success, now deal with it

I'm sorry if you think I was inferring you were thick. I meant nothing of the sort. And yeah, I agree, the ambition of the club has to be the highest target.
