When will we know which night Brighton will be played?

at a guess it will be Tuesday 23rd with us both playing on the Saturday. it might depend if TV still want the match live, if they do it will still be 23rd as Manchester derby the night after. it might also depend on which day is better for the police, so kind of expecting it to be 23rd if TV still want to put it on

Email to the club and he'd be banned instantly.

By the sounds of the minutes with THST it sounds like they'll be clamping down on it massively. Wouldn't be too hard for them to identify him and his ST

Edit: Just looked at the Trusts' twitter, someone has tweeted that pic to them and they've acknowledged so reckon he'll be banned once they pass on

Interesting that they told the Trust they didn't think the opening ceremony could be before the Palace game because of fans not being able to get there from work in time. I wonder if there's a chance we ask for an unusual 8.30 kick-off time or something to make it feasible? Would still be earlier getting out than after a midweek cup game that went to ET and Penalties so I can't see any fundamental reason it'd be impossible. Then you could have a ceremony start at 7 or 7.30 which is doable for most.

Hell no - It's hard enough getting home after a 7.45pm game - once you start at 8.30pm and finish the game at 10.15 - 10.20pm you're into sparse trains from main connecting stations. You go from getting home at 11 to racing against time to even get home. And you want that to happen on the first 62k game?
It'll be carnage.

Yes too true, for me I’d like an earlier ko 7.45 or even 7.30 so plenty of time to get back to Euston for last train home

I'm thinking there must be backup plans. If, for instance, we'd drawn home second in the Champions League and gone to penalties, that probably wouldn't have ended till 10.45 or so and we'd have had to cope with it. Not saying I want it to happen, but I do wonder if it's being considered. Levy will want the ceremony there for the first game with the eyes of the world on it I'm sure, rather than looking a bit irrelevent before the third game against Huddersfield to have it on a weekend.

Excuse me? There are plenty of folk who find this move rather distasteful. Changing of the street name is even worse.
I don't doubt there are fans who will be saddened but I doubt even they would consider it shameful. The main thing is that if people want to still call our ground White Hart lane we can and we will. Personally I am ok that every time anyone looks at a London transport map our club's name will be there for all to see.

Just looked him up on FB, his profile is pretty locked down. I was hoping to see him complaining that he's been busted for taking advantage of people, breaking the law and just being a bit of a low life.
If I couldn't make that game I'd either list them on the ticket exchange or just give them to my family/friends.

When you think about it, it's quite flattering that a station is named after our club, rather than our stadium being (inaccurately) named after a station.

the thing is, and I'm not defending him, but for him to mention he would pay for any upgrade, I reckon 1 of the zeros might of been an error. we only see that part, did the script follow on after @TheChosenOne screenshoot

It's been done to end the connotation of THFC and WHL for any prospective sponsor. Like everything with them it's the £.

we won't earn a penny if the station name gets changed, if anything it will cost us. TFL won't take the cost of all the map changes
