  1. don't cancel your train! as mentioned above, you should be able to buy a ticket over the phone from BP as late as Friday to be brought down on the supporters coach. You can pick it up at the Withdean ticket office on Saturday afternoon.

     

    I'm going in one of the home stands as the view from the away is appalling.

  2. £350 in store or £700 in petrol for each adult ticket.

     

    Less than a month's shopping for a typical family.

     

    Or a week's fill-up in post-Brown/Darling Britain!

     

    Your only problem is that they issue the vouchers quarterly and the next lot are due in November.

     

    Thanks for that. Even with my expensive tastes it'd take me a bit longer than a week to rack up! I don't shop for a family so I'll leave it. Cheers for the tip anyway.

  3. What about the youngster Jose Baxter, anyone heard whether there is any truth in that rumour?

     

    a mate of mine goes to Goodison and rates this guy very highly. Said that he wishes he got more chances in the first team there. Got three winners in three games against Liverpool Reserves last season. Apparently very talented.

  4. Decent day out. Good performance overall. You could tell that we were going to regret the missed chances – especially the one on ones. Heffernen was unlucky to hit both posts with his effort. Brooke’s was much less convincing. I thought Stephens and Whittaker both had very good games. However Stephens pulling out of a 50/50 moments before they got their late penalty really made me cringe. Should have been three points but couldn’t close it out.

  5. agree on the pub recommendations in the previous two posts (am also a former Brighton resident). Lion and Lobster is a favourite of mine, although probably isn't quite central enough for the weekend visitors.

     

    I tend to go in the Preston Park Hotel on Preston Road for a couple of looseners before this fixture. Is decent enough, normally fairly quiet despite being very close to the stadium and the station.

     

    has everyone bought tickets yet? any idea on when is the latest is that I'll be able to buy? I assume that they're posted from BP??

     

    thanks

  6. no worries mark im happy driving as i got to get back early but i want to get to hereford for midday as im meeting 5 of my mates in town if that still suits you

     

    ouch! have just paid up for the train. would have snatched your hand off for a lift in the van! never mind. thanks for the offer. pleased to be getting involved. will be heading up on my own. would be great if someone could let me know what pub you'll be in for a pint before the game (if you know). if not, no worries. cheers

  7. hello there

     

    i am going to be travelling from london for this one. will aim for the 12 train and keep an eye out for some latics fans on there. i may have met one or two of you in an irish pub after the brentford game about 18 months ago...

     

    looking forward to it!

  8. Saw Yeovil at Southend on Saturday and they were poor. Warne got about an hour, and was (as always) lively. Shame if Forbes is suspended - he is as bad a full back as I've seen at this level - shocking game! Their two centre backs were useful, but I think Hughes will give them the run around. Three points.

  9. Welcome Joe to OWTB :OWTB1:

     

    :oasissign1: Should get in touch with the OASIS Boys on here :OASISscarf:

     

    Any probs :unsure: just give one of us a shout

     

    Cheers Exile :exile:

     

    cheers exile

     

    might have met a few of you boys in the pub after the brentford game the other week. definately met a bloke called sam.

     

    have got my ticket for the brighton game.
