I trust that a glass or two of sherry will be raised in the Mr and Mrs Willo household, to mark the occasion.

Any idea on the football special time of departure from Falmer to London Victoria?

My challenge will be to be able to get on a Brighton bound train after the game - the Police don't cater for Palace fans living behind enemy lines I haven't yet decide on the mode of transport I will use. I am led to believe that getting away from the ground in a car can be a bit of a nightmare.

I see you turning up in a vintage car, dressed in a deer stalker hat, plus twos and a velvet blazer with a monocle, a bit like mr Toad from wind in the willows. No offence intended

I get it. You think the 'parp' was from Willo's Mr Toad-esque car horn.

Getting away from the ground is indeed an absolute nightmare... Be prepared for a long wait after the game. Leave 15 mins early with the not so smug g1mps at 2-0 to the palace.

Beating your rivals 3-0 and you piss off home early i would savor every second and rub it in their faces for as long as i could.

Last time I was at the Amex my mate was p1ssed and mouthy but I was the one who got the punch in the teeth because of him. This time I'm going solo...
