Technically yes, though some fans have already worked out that if you slip in the back entrance of the hotel, along the corridor past rooms 11-17 and then out past Reception loudly proclaiming "What a lovely day! I may go feed the ducks on the pond, then perhaps go for a brisk ramble along the South Downs Way" you'll probbaly get away with leaving your car there.

It's so far out of town, you may have to stay at the Hotel on match days anyway. 
They have Dave, it's something to do with the foundations having to be below ground level as opposed to just being plonked on top.
You forgot to mention the car parking available at Tesco's right next door. 
Actually I don't see why they don't just build a car park on the fields the other side of Village Way. There's TONS of space, they could easily build a HUGE car park for thousands of vehicles. In addition to serving the stadium it could act as a Park 'n' Ride for when the Council get round to wanting to have a proper solution to traffic congestion in Brighton.
Sorted!

You can park for free on your first game, just take out the one day free trial.

Once the fottie stadium is up and running the club will apply for planning permission to buiild a sports complex on the otherside of Village Way
I just think it was an oversight when the plans were originally submitted. Obviously there is going to have to be adequate car parking given the fact that public transport (especially the railway) will prove to be woefully inadequate if crowds start getting towards the 20,000 mark (unless you* think that 15,000 people all trying to buy a pint at the same time after the game is actually going to work when it comes to staggering the homeward journeys).That's too much like common sense!
Now just seems the best time to do it. We've got a team up there, all we've got to do is simply order a load of tarmac and some white paint and then - bish bash bosh - we'll have a car park before LDC know what's hit them.
*Not 'you' specifically, a general 'you'.

I still think it should have been in Bramer or Waterhall, can we have another public enquiry please.

Thanks Alex for the link.
I see we will have up to 2350 parking places on match days.
Best wishes,
Paul

I would just like to say, in the true spirit of conciliation, that any Falmer residents can go f*** themselves.

Not if Tesco and Asda get in their planning permission for 50,000 sq ft superstores beforehand.

The buses will leave from Cowley Road shops every 15 minutes. After the match these buses will operate every 30 minutes. The planned Park & Ride site at the Race Hill has been dropped to deter travellers , gippos and pikeys parking their caravans there on a permanent basis.
