Hmmmm, lol Crawley not on the list but if you want to park up at the Worthing A27 or Benfield valley (Portslade/Hove) Near A27 we can get you on board and away after the game for around £8 fare. Must be better than the long queue for train or Park and ride busses. Kids travel Free if travelling with any adult paying the coach fare. (Up to 2 kids per adult)C.Walsh'sLoveChild said:Fancy going via Crawley?

Fans have flocked to watch Gus Poyet's side since they moved into the Amex last summer, with the club averaging 25,512 in the league so far this season - more than the likes of Derby, Sheffield Wednesday, Leeds and Nottingham Forest.
Capacity is set to reach 30,000 in January and, far from feeling the pinch of the recession, Barber revealed that Brighton have managed to entice thousands of fans to arrive early and stay late for each game - spending more money at the club all the time.
"This is a great place to watch football and we are keen to get people here for the day out," he said.
"We are in the entertainment business and we are trying to give people an all-round package. The majority of fans arrive and depart using public transport, and they recognise that if 30,000 people want to leave the stadium all at once it is going to be difficult.
"The stadium is designed to allow people to hang around after the game, enjoy something to eat, have a few drinks and for the kids to be able to run around and play in the wide concourses.
"We have people staying after the game in their thousands.
"We keep the bars open, we don't have a set closing time. We want people to feel like they can relax and stay at their leisure."
That invitation extends to away supporters, with Brighton lighting the stadium in the colours of the travelling fans and even importing local beers.
Barnsley fans, for example, were greeted by a red concourse and served Webster's Yorkshire bitter on tap before their visit in August, and the Seagulls also take the radical step of bringing together rival fans after the game.
Barber said: "After the game we open up the bars, there's no segregation and they can mingle and mix. You don't have a segregated environment in your living room or your local pub so why should there be one at the stadium?
"We make fans feel comfortable. It tends to mean then that they spend more, they are more respectful to our club staff and fans and, after the game, they are invited to join our supporters for a few drinks and a talk about the game."0 -
People stay after the game because you can't get 25,000 people onto a train with 4 carriages :-)Chris_from_Sidcup said:

You ARE a problem.NathanPrior said:Found a problem with the subsidised travel:
Train travel, within the subsidised zone, is included within your match ticket package between 11.30am and 9pm (3pm kick-off) or between 4.15pm and midnight (7.45pm kick-off).0 -

Are they serious ,people come from all over the country to watch their club play in a purpose built modern stadium which has been designed in a way that you have to hang around for hours because you cant get home.Covered End said:
