It looks like you have to get a (free) ticket for the bar, as well as the match ticket. What isn't clear to me is if that bar ticket guarantees you entrance, or if any match ticket holder can buy a bar ticket but only the first 400 on the day gain entrance. I think it's the latter, but I'm not sure.
In that midfield two, Baleba is clearly first choice. However, alongside him it's one of Ayari, Hinsh, Wieffer or Gomez. Considering his poor loan spells last season, he's had a remarkable season. He presses well, is decent on the ball, and that goal might just kick him on another notch.
Football is often the shittest part of the day. Few beers with friends/family, good chat. Sit through a dull 1-1 draw, then have more beers with friends/family. People who go to Brighton matches expecting it to lift their mood are at the wrong place.
