This of course is the key. They and the Police f***ed it up by trying to be clever making it a midweek game (allowing people to drink all day) and then restricting tickets.

Give us a full allocation and either push for it being on TV or have rings of security around the place allowing people to get there in good time rather than causing a bottleneck outside the ground.

Not sure if this is still in date, but it says 15%

So at their place 4,500. Still a v large allocation, mind.

But it says subject to safety and stuff. And they'll be adamant such a large following is unsafe due to what happened. And we won't argue.

If you want to live in a world full of kindness, respect and love, try to show these qualities.

That's from one of their more reasonable contributors, another wants Sussex police to club Palace supporters like beached baby seals on the grounds that you can't take any chances.

Can you hear the Brighton sing? I can't hear a ******* thing!

Yet another cowardly weed suggested charging all away tickets at 52 quid, until someone pointed out that the rules are that tickets have to be the same price as home fans prices!! Really are moronic down at Falmer!!

This is an interesting wrinkle that I was mulling last night: which club has the stronger 2nd XI?

Of course, this assumes that the Weed won't hoist that chip on their shoulder high and proud, and put out a full strength team just because it's us. I'm hoping that Roy is sensible and plays this like any other Premiership team would an early-round FA Cup tie, and play the subs.

We don't do possession; we do defense and attack. Everything else is just wa**ing with a football.

Well as my local pub team are not actually in the competition I was unable to be any more accurate.
