Travel Guide……Parking available
There is car parking available at the Bridge car park. Supporters can pay with cash on the gate. The Bridge car park is just a few minutes' walk from the Amex and will cost £15 if you pay on the day. (NB: If parking is booked online, in advance of our 4pm Wednesday postal cut-off, it is available for £13. For midweek matches, postal cut-off is the preceding Friday at 4pm.)
Alternatively, our full travel service is in operation for the match, with the trains, buses and park-and-ride services included in the match-ticket package.
You can also book travel via our travel partners Seagull Travel, who pick up from points in all major Sussex towns - and even further afield.
For park-and-ride customers who will be arriving after 11am, we strongly advise you to use the Brighton Racecourse site (postcode BN2 9XZ), where we have excellent capacity and a swift service.
Food and Drink
Tomorrow's fixture provides an opportunity for you to grab a meal deal, with chips now available from the centre kiosks in the West Lower, East Lower and North Stand concourses.
This week's meal deals are any hot food item with chips and a soft drink for £8.50; or you can grab a hot food item, soft drink and crisps or a chocolate bar for £7. You can upgrade to a pint of beer for £1 extra.
Guinness will be available in the North Stand kiosks 1 & 2 and in Dick's Bar; while Dark Star is also available in Dick's Bar, as requested by fans. If sales go well the club will continue stocking both products this season. The guest pie for this game will be the chicken and chorizo and these will be available in all kiosks, subject to availability, so we advise you get to the concourse early to avoid disappointment.
Meanwhile, salt beef and pulled pork sandwiches will be available in the centre kiosk in the North Stand.

In this week's edition of Seagull chairman Tony Bloom and chief executive Paul Barber look ahead to the new season, while Adam El-Abd takes a look at his life through a lens.
There is also a four-page tribute to Albion fan Roy Chuter, who tragically died last week.
David Lopez talks about his return to the Seagulls and Adam Chicksen looks back at his school days.
Also in the award-winning programme, Kemy Agustien talks about his Premier League dreams, Andrea Orlandi gets a kiss from Samuel Eto'o and last but certainly not least, we introduce a new columnist: legendary Albion boss Alan Mullery!
Matchday Retail
The brand new 2013 home and away shirts are on sale now and fans can have their name and number, or that of their favourite player, added to their shirt while you wait at either the North Stand cabin or the main Amex Superstore.
If you have already purchased a brand new 2013 home or away shirt but have not yet had it personalised with your name and number, or that of your favourite player, then you can do so while you wait at the matchday print-room located outside the North Stand.
We will be introducing Matchday Priority Products for fans coming to each Championship game this season and we kick off with a large selection of Errea polo shirts, all with a 25% discount both before and after the game - but hurry, these offers will only be available whilst stocks last!
The Seagulls Superstore plus the East Stand shop and the mobile units in both the West and North Stands will all be open both before and directly after the match.
E-Cash Guide
We will be operating the new e-cash system tomorrow, which will be more rewarding to those fans arriving earlier and staying later. Click here for full details.
