Should kids get fast tracked trains from falmer?

I'd suggest:

Priority for anyone who already has a rail ticket since they've paid for the trip twice. Except Beach Hut.
1901ers only in 1st class.
Away fans on the roof.
Fatties to the back. Anyone over 16 stone to be put on the last train then there will be twice as much room on the others for everyone else.
Three farts and you're out. Even if it's moving.
A special Pullman for the GDC replete with blue cheese, port and the Laird's own personal supply of finest Resl Ales.

Let's do this thing.

Pretty reasonable and what I like is the practicality. We'll thought through, Barber to implement at next home game? :bowdown:

Mmm, interesting question.

I've taken a little mate of ours, in his wheelchair to the disabled areas in the East upper this season, both North and South ends. We're also going again together v "Boro on the 29th.

Quite rightly so, people with wheelchairs are 'fast tracked' straight to the front of the queue at Falmer and then straight to the West coast trains to take him back to Worthing.

Off the subject slightly, and I may be being a tad politically incorrect here, but could I get away with borrowing my little mates wheelchair and popping my son, (who is faster than Ussain Bolt getting away when it comes to cleaning his room) in it in order to beat the queues?

Brighton Belle should be back up and running in a couple of years, there is your Pullman electric train sorted out and it will fit on the platform as well :)

which they do hence loads of empty seats on evening games and even more from 80 minutes onwards,looks a bit tinpot???

Why does it matter what we look like to other clubs? If we win every game from now to the end of the season with a half-full stadium, mass usage of the cardboard clapper things and goal music I would be more than happy. Support the team, couldn't care less about the perceived image.

As to leaving early/quicker for kids; I can see the idea and in some ways it makes sense but any parent bringing their child must have a rough idea of what they're in for, it shouldn't be a surprise anymore!
