Is anyone on here a member? small and seemingly somewhat exclusive, this "newish" hospitality area in the Lower West stand seems very popular indeed, virtually sold out since it's ineception about four seasons ago.

Membership includes seats directly behind one of the dugouts l believe. Worth trying to join? Good value for money?

Not a member and not interested; the seats don’t strike me as that great, sight-line too low and you will get wet when it rains.

Seems to be 1901 Platinum with a few snacks. Given that all of the lounges have TVs showing sports, not sure what makes it a sports bar and looks a bit disconnected being part of WSL.

A little bit in your face for us poor proletariat in the Wset Lower too, have seen several people turned away when they attempted to go through the door, presuming it was just part and parcel of the concourse and where they cold actually sit down to enjoy their pie and pint.

Just read the blurb from the club - “one parking space between two seats”. Blimey, either the club have gone overboard on social distancing or is this the solution to losing Bennett’s Field? If it’s the latter it’ll be carnage trying to drive out at the final whistle. :shrug:

Long been the case with all 1901/hospitality membership packages l believe, one parking space per two seats.

Would be lovely if the club could build a indoor / outdoor bar like a dicks bar2 somewhere with maybe a 1000 capacity with toilets .we have plenty of places where it could go.i know there is plans for a new fans zone outside the north stand

Just saw on The Athletic:

Brighton are also using the break to spruce up the Amex with upgraded branding and signage.

Projects include work starting on a new tunnel club (a hospitality experience in the tunnel area with seats behind the dugouts), and preparations for new food, drink and entertainment outlets outside the ground.


And was curious as surely this already exists as The Dugout? Or did The Dugout get discounted for this season?

Sure I read Spurs brought in a new Tunnel hospitality experience where you could see the players lining up and coming back in from the pitch, maybe it's making the dugout offer closer to that?

Any news on the monorail?

Given the current Mill Road P&R thread the monorail is needed more than ever it seems!
An underground line from The Amex to the training ground would be a decent alternative for me :thumbsup:
