In an attempt to lighten the mood on this forum... where is everyone drinking Saturday?

Me +3 driving down and should arrive in Brighton around 11ish, so just wondering if it's better to head towards the town centre or around the ground?

By sounds of it no pubs at all around the ground apart from in the concourse in the ground itself... We are getting into Brighton train station about 11.45 so be in the centre of Brighton be good to know where every one going. PUSB.

There's 4 coaches going down from the Wallace. Think we're stopping off at the Tempest Inn. Think they're laying a buffet on for us and it's £2.50 a pint. Not sure where it is apart from it's on the seafront.

It's all been arranged by the guy who arranges the coaches. Apparently MOTD are filming on the coaches too. Doing a bit about the City. So everybody keep an eye on MOTD Saturday night, might see somebody you know wearing a SISU OUT T-shirt.

The Tempest is decent...most pubs around the station are home fans only. There are bars on Sussex uni campus which is a 10 mins walk from Falmer station (max).

Drinking in Brighton and the mistake the fans make is leaving it too late to get to Brighton station, that should be at least an hour before KO. Big queues that can escalate very quickly. Drinks and grub outside and inside the ground.

I wouldn't say 'most' are home fans only. The Evening Star, The Prince Albert and the Nelson are all-inviting.

The Caxton, Trafalgar and Grand Central are for home fans only though. The best pubs in the city are around the station.

From there, you can catch your train to Falmer, free of charge.

Remember a pub called the battle of trafalgar right by the brighton train station. Especially good if you like real ales and bitters.

It is very good - though get very cramped very quickly.

In fact, all of the pubs around the station do good ales and bitters - The Trafalgar, the Caxton, The Evening Star, The Lord Nelson, The Grand Central, The Prince Albert. Just avoid the Railway Bell which, as a Coventry fan you will be asked to do anyway.

The Prince Albert is a great boozer!

Do you know if there is anywhere (reasonably priced) to park around the station?

Brighton & Hove Albion welcome Coventry City to the Amex on Saturday for the fifth round of the Emirates FA Cup, kick-off 3pm.

Albion will be looking to reach the quarter-finals of the competition for the first time since 1986, while Coventry City lifted the trophy the following season with a 3-2 win over Tottenham Hotspur at the old Wembley Stadium.

January signings Jurgen Locadia and Leonardo Ulloa are expected to feature, with both strikers looking for their first starts for the Seagulls this season.

Travel update

All supporters are asked to head to the stadium as early as possible regardless of how they are travelling.

Trains: Southern Rail have informed the club that they will be operating a full matchday service. However, there will be bus replacement services between Littlehampton and Brighton due to engineering work throughout the day.

Fans are advised to check Southern’s website before travelling.

Park & Rides: The three sites at Mill Road, the University of Brighton site at Lewes Road and Brighton Racecourse are open from 12pm.

Supporters using the Racecourse Park & Ride are advised to use the entrance off Manor Hill.

Blue badge holders should use the entrance via Freshfield Road. This is to allow vehicles to be parked on the firmer ground at the site.

Car Parks: The Bridge (Car Park B) and Sussex University (Car Park C) have now completely sold out, and there will be no cash sales on the day. Roads around Sussex University are expected to be very busy due to the university holding an Applications day throughout Saturday. Supporters are therefore advised to use public transport wherever possible.

Village Way will be extremely busy and congested, and supporters are advised to avoid this area pre and post-match, unless they have pre-booked parking.
 
Only pub to avoid is the Railway Bell outside the station.Plenty of others to choose from near the station.Just make sure you give yourself plenty of time to get from the station to the ground as big queues form from about 1.30
