That highlighted bit of news will send fans to the east of the county into apoplexy.

Thanks for the heads up.

Got to get back to Polegate and then 110 mile drive home. Could be fun

Thread could maybe do with a slightly more heads-up title?

They have put another train to Eastbourne, via Lewes at 20:58 which is about ten minutes too early but ok for the early leavers

A thread about travel tomorrow is titled, er, Travel tomorrow

May I ask what you expected a thread about travel tomorrow to be titled? "Sydney Opera House," perhaps? "The Hanging Gardens of Babylon?" "Herds of wildebeest sweeping majestically?"

Thought something maybe more along the lines of: 'FLEE ON 60 MINUTES EASTBOURNE-BOUND ATTENDEES, LEST THEE BE CONSIGNED TO REPLACEMENT BUS SERVICE FROM HELL'

Why would anyone leave early and miss the opportunity to applaud the Manchester City team chef as they do a lap of honour?

When travelling by train I guess that you show the phone app. How do you get through the gate at the station if unmanned?

Usually the gates are open if the station is unmanned. Same would happen if travelling with season ticket or print at home tickets as well.

Additional 8 car service due to be running from Lewes to Brighton at 22:25 which should hopefully be empty but it's there if you need it.
