Yep. Word of warning though, the train back to New Street takes forever and the queues are massive. I gave up with the trains and ended up getting an Uber back last time I went

Went to the Green Man before the game which was good (if a little wet and muddy). Getting into Wembley was quick (not sure why they bothered with the staggered entry times) but the bars seemed a bit hit-and-miss in terms of how quickly the staff were serving people. I was in the 'safe standing'...

Not quite the same. These were touts buying tickets for home games, not Brighton fans being banned from away games.

They were just touts on Twitter who had bought memberships and were selling tickets on

.... but there's no money for Safe Standing rails though :rolleyes:

The irony of all this is that I've heard stories of a few people who are on the naughty ban list that have managed to get tickets by being guests of season ticket holders Ah, that's exactly how they found out. I've heard of people getting bans from Twitter because they've used their real name...

The other way that just occurred to me (you can tell I'm avoiding doing my actual job here!) is that the person who bought the ticket is someone from the club looking out for people exchanging tickets.

Unless when OP contacted the club they flagged his account as a potential wrong 'un and watched to see where his ticket ended up before hitting the ban button.

From the outset it felt like the club had already decided that this wasn't going to happen, and the survey was just a token gesture to the Fans Forum. As more and more clubs have it installed (for safety!) it is going to happen eventually, but until then the club are happy to kick that can down...

I know I'm in the minority, but I'd like Leeds to stay up. Elland Road is a decent place to visit, and for the most part, their fans are alright (I've forgotten/moved on from the Ben White stuff). Bournemouth, however can f*** right off.

Have you checked that there were no recorded accidents? Thought not. Also how would it be possible to fall over a safe standing bar (unless you were climbing on it)? The whole point of them is to stop crowd surges from behind

Wonder how much the tickets will be this time around? Last time I paid £65 for an adult and £55 for an under 21

Assuming they got for a 4.30 (or later) kick off most of the marathon would be over by then anyway

Last train back is 21.58 and gets back into Brighton at 1.50. Going to be cutting it fine

The car park behind Brighton Station is the cheapest in town (I think). Its cheaper than all the NCPs in the area anyway https://www.apcoa.co.uk/parking-in/brighton/brighton-station/

Definitely. Spuds have sold thousands of Son replica shirts to fans in South Korea and made them the most popular Prem club over there. It'd be interesting to see what our replica shirt sales to Japan have been like this season.

The police are going around Hollingdean at the moment, knocking on doors and asking householders if they can try a door key they found on the pair

They've done it pre-match on Block B a couple of times before. Also during games I've seen the steward who looks like Dara O Brian trying to check everyone's tickets on the back rows. What normally happens though is as soon as people who shouldn't be there see a senior steward walking up the...
