Amex Debut

[Addick]

This Saturdays game against Hull marks my first visit to your Amex stadium. My Son & I are looking forward to this enormously. What is the best thing that I should look out for, and what is the worst? Up the Albion.....

I just can't stop comparing it to withdean so in my oppinion the best thing is EVERYTHING !!! (except the queuing for beer, food, toilets ect) you'll both love it
If either of you need the bog in the 1st half I'd shoot straight out during a slow part of the match especially if your son is young coz you'll miss 10 mins of the second half queuing but other than that it's amazing

What is the best thing that I should look out for?

The Charlton score?

Everyone likes to moan about the queues to get drink or food and the general lack off it. And about the wait for trains after the match you'd think Southern were trying to move a majority of the 22000+ plus crowd.

You might get wet if it rains.

Otherwise you'll have a truely wonderful experience. Oh the PA is a bit loud (someone honestly said that)

In my opinion it's like watching the Albion play in a cup final every week!

 

[Daffy Duck]

It's just bloody amazing!

You'll be totally gob-smacked.

Best - Brighton scoring ... Worst - Hull scoring, but as that won't happen then absolutely nothing!

If your son is young, don't bank on the half term burger/hot dog. Bring your own food and don't ruin the experience by missing some of the game.

The best thing about the Amex? That big, shiny, 22k seater stadium is ours.

It's one of those places, i find, that looks impressive from a distance, a little ordinary up close, but when inside beyond the spectacular. As the seats are slowly filled it just then grows with life and makes every penny spent to get there and get in enormously worthwhile. The worst bit, if you're in the North Stand, is to have some turnip giving unamusing commentary on the game and how we shouldn't celebrate too loudly if scoring the first of our comeback goals. Otherwise it's all pure magic.

Pies....they are fantastic

Try and get there early. The closer it gets to 3pm (or 5:30pm in this instance) the longer the queue for trains at Brighton station. And besides, it's well worth being there early just to enjoy the place, soak up the atmosphere and grab a few drinks and a pie in one of the bars. If you're lucky you may even be able to get in the supporters' bar

Not if his son is under 18

Good advice - heed and you cannot fail to be impressed

Rememeber that it starts at 5:30 firstly, get there an hour in advance for food and drinks and suggest staying afterwards and popping over to the north stand for a few drinks after the game if you can especially if we win. A good atmosphere after a win, and lets the crowds die down outside.

The Charlton score?
