With major disruption between Brighton & three bridges tomorrow does anybody have any bright ideas how to get round them?

Not really if there are no trains between Brighton and Three Bridges it basically means were are all stuffed on the South Coast.

A bus replacing the trains - there is your alternative.

Enough buses will be available......apparently. Additionals have been ordered, though i doubt lots of fans will ALL travel back at the same time.
Few hundred by coaches, few hundred own transport, few hundred from other places and few hundred avoiding the buses.

I'll look after the skirt
If the average bus holds about 60, give or take a few and there are 500 people waiting at Three Bridges, you do the math............

I have been to millwall many times & to my knowledge train is the preferred method of transport mainly because the station takes you right into the away end.
Also there are many pubs to drink in around London bridge (especially the market porter close to borough market)
On a disruption free day we are back in Brighton before 7pm.
From my point of view it is also cheaper by train £15 rather than the petrol & parking costs incurred by driving

There are direct trains from Brighton to Victoria on the hour and half-hour via Littlehampton.
To get to London Bridge change at East Croydon.

Yes, and get off at New Cross Gate, one stop before London Bridge, then short walk to ground. Coming out though the police will probably frogmarch you to South Bermondsey, an even closer station to the the New Den. Problem is it is on a different line, and you will need to change at London Bridge to get a Horsham train.
All probably a bit late as guessing you will be on your way by now.
