I trust you stayed well clear of the Bar Zamora.I have just spent the night in various historic harbour taverns in Barcelona. I'm amazed I'm able to write this and the above.

Yesssssssss? Very nice profile.
Pretentious tosspot well up his own arse......
Well I have learnt through a little facebook stalking that this guy goes to the same gym as me, has a problem with the Argus and the Greens - In fact, he is a serial whinger.
The power of the internet eh, perhaps he should spend more of his time securing his online identity?
Of course the streets around the Goldstone never filled up on match days. The streets around 90& of sports arenas in teh country dont fill up on match days. People that live near shopping centers dont see their street fill up more on Saturdays. Where your argumnet falls down, is no one is pissed off in Falmer as parking isnt allowed, and not many are pissed off in Coldean, because like I said before, and will say again, the parking situation in Coldean is not something your average resident wants to bring to everyones attention. A fact that I am sure will be pointed out to Michael Inkpin-Leissner of Ridge View Coldean, many many times over the next few days and weeks. God help him if his pointless moan brings double yellows to parts of Coldean. Because that's the only thing that will change it, as it is NOT a football issue.What I don't get and I will put my tin hat on , but why can people not use the vast array of Public Transport to get to the ground. Why have people still , after all that has been achieved, after all that we have now have, still selfishly have to piss off the poor sods of Coldean and Falmer. If someone turned up in your street every two weeks and blocked you driveway or nicked all the parking spaces in your street, would you be happy knowing that millions of pounds of subsidised public transport was available as an alternative?
Spot on. Rather like putting the stadium at Falmer it isn't the ideal solution but it's the best available. Certainly for away fans it's essential.That's one way of looking at it. Equally you could say it will encourage folk to use public transport. I can see where you're coming from but on balance I'd say an all-inclusive ticket is preferable and will have greater impact. Selling seperate vouchers for each and every mode of transport isn't a workable option and currently penalises thousands of public transport users who purchased them as its impossible to collect them on the trains. It's not perfect but all-inclusive deal is the most workable option and will provide the best outcome on balance.
[MENTION=25]Gwylan[/MENTION], did you think the vouchers for Withdean were a bad idea?
Hove seafront residential roads are busy EVERY day from Easter to the end of August with day trippers & have been for a hundred years, let's stop any car movement when the sun is shining shall we?
How can you possibly be a pretentious tosspot and live in Coldean? It's bloody impossible.
I trust you stayed well clear of the Bar Zamora.
But it's not true is it? Every single road? That must be tens of thousands of cars. And you're giving his letter credence by suggesting that it's true.The quote 'every single road in Coldean is filled with vehicles – parked on pedestrian walkways, blocking drives, blocking views in junctions, blocking ways for emergency vehicles like ambulances or fire brigade' has applied whenever I have been there - admittedly not often. Though each time that has been when there hasn't been a game on at the Amex.
Sorry but i drive and park just off coldean lane...because i work (on saturdays) right up to the last possible moment)...by the time i arrive there are very few spaces...but i c few if any instances of illegal parking...there is also a car going round with 2 wardens in it...the whole thing imho is vastly overhyped....what are we talking about 23 times a year? excluding any other events...most of which will b well below capacity...pffft.
For a contrary view ..irrespective of the coldean issue how the extra 8k are going to get there...hmmm
