I'm catching the train to the Norwich game on friday the 3rd of april. The return train that I'd like to be on leaves from Brighton at 6.03 to Fratton. Would leaving the ground at the final whistle give me enough time to catch the train from Falmer to Brighton?

Cheers

Almost definitely...depending on if there is no problems on the track or where you are leaving the ground from?

Clapped the players off, let the kids run around as the stands emptied after Wolves, barely a sole left in the seating areas, went for a loo, wandered down to the station (probably a good 10 to 15 mins after the final whistle at this point), queued up, and still got the 17.38 and was in Brighton for 17.47.

So yes, I would say you'd be absolutely fine.

I assume that service still runs on a Bank Holiday?

You could probably walk to Brighton station from the ground in that time.

6 miles in an hour - that is jogging for a lot of people!

Southern trains to/from Southampton and Brighton are running. Well, put it another way, the times are the same as a normal Saturday fixture last time I checked.

Oooff, it's going to be TIGHT. I don't know if you've herd but transport at the Amex is a nightmare! You'd better leave at least 10 minutes before the final whistle and STAMPEDE down to the station leaving any non-essential belongings and slow hangers-on behind for your own sake, and then you might JUST make it.

If you're going all the way to #Twatton, I would have thought you'd want to leave it until as late as possible.

Indeed, fortunately it's only for a connection on to Wales.
