A quick heads up for fans travelling tomorrow. I manage a pub with a microbrewery and large selection of guest beers in Southbourne which is about 10 minutes from Pokesdown station and 25 minute walk from the ground. There is very limited parking available but a public carpark that becomes free after 6pm. Families very much welcome but no under 18's after 7pm

Be good to know if fans are coming so I can put extra staff on. Unfortunately no football shirts after 8pm.

Also we should be able to accommodate a minibus or two in the carpark depending on how busy it is.

A good mate of mine (an Albion fan) has just moved from Southbourne to Bournemouth with his family, he said he loved living there, I'll ask him if he's ever been in your place - I'm assuming he definitely would have! Alas, neither of us will be there tonight, so all in all, a pretty pointless post from me.
