Over the top? Also they will potentially be waiting for 40 odd minutes.

Far from over the top.
Sussex Police haven't requested pubs around the station should be home fans only.
It doesn't suggest that they are going to be kettled on to a train, other than supplying them a quick getaway.
Seems like sensible policing to me.

The away gates will open the same time as all the home gates and rely on trust that no trouble starts.

Theres been a special train for them the last 2 seasons.....although its 12 coaches long and you could probably fit the amount of people on board into just 2 of those. Would be better off using the same coaches on services between Lewes and Brighton.
Its much quicker to just go via Lewes or Brighton anyway, never mind it leaving 40 minutes after FT - they will just get normal services
Looking at the trains, it also seems that a Brighton - Lewes shuttle has been cancelled to allow their half-empty train to run - awful planning.

Southern I believe.....at the expense of Brighton fans who will lose a train to Lewes after the game.

Isn't any train that Millwall fans get on a 'special' train?

Sounds like all reasonable stuff To me. I always enjoy my trips to Millwall trouble free.

So the Eastbound service will be messed up for hours, just like it was after the Palace games.

The last two seasons, the special Millwall train has left half empty. 17.30 seems a bit late. The only way that timing would work is the Police holding them back and kettling them onto the train. Despite Millwall still having a fair few morons that follow them, its not a practise I agree with. Luckily, our local Police have a few more brain cells than the Met and do try and treat fans with a degree of respect compared to *some* other forces around the country.

You cant force them into an area though to get the train. As I said, most will not bother to wait half an hour and will just get a Brighton train and change there. Waste of resources, maybe the extra 12 coaches that will be carting around fresh air later on could be used every weekend by Brighton fans to ease overcrowding, instead of cancelling usually full-up 6-car Brighton - Lewes shuttles. The Eastbourne train at 17.36 is going to be extremely busy now.....which is great as it often leaves full-up anyway !!
I,ve seen it used on here before.......... As in........

One of the pleasures of playing Millwall at the New Den has always been the discovery of how well Albion fans and Millwall fans can mix together on the trains. Sure, there's sometimes a bit of ritual abuse from behind a fence, but once fans get into the train together, all is very civilised.
