    haven't been to the ground, but i have driven past it a few times - which doesn't help because unless you see the sign and the big blow up football on the roundabout, you wouldn't know it's there.

    In the old days you could see the floodlights plyons.

    I've been there a few times as it is not too far from me. It's a tight little ground which now has a seated area down both of the sides of the pitch - until February, it was open on one side. The away end looks a bit uncomfortable. It is standing only behind both goals, I think. There is a decentish bar behind the home supporters goal at the furthest end of the ground as you arrive from the big roundabout. They seem to be OK with home and away supporters in there, although that may change for the mighty Charlton.

    A friendly crowd unless you sit next to the foul mouthed wotsit who plays for Crawley Ladies (that's no lady....).

    Not many pubs nearby as far as I can see.

    They won't let you park at K2 mate, if you turn left at roundabout and left again you can park along brighton road if you're early enough

    You could do a right ( coming from horsham) before you get to cheals roundabout into broadfield, straight across first roundabout and left at the next one and park the other side of the stadium

    Dazzler, if you see 4 or 5 of us standing with two youngsters with pink mohicans (Don't ask!) come and say hello!

    Me & my Spud supporting fella are going. His idea but alas I do have to go to the Southend vs Spuds youngsters friendly. At least Parker won't be playing, not sure I could keep my mouth shut, still bitter. He's says I'm not allowed to sit in the home end being my local club.

    this is what I’m hoping. i know that they have had an online ticketing system in place for this, but as I’m still not sure whether I’ll definitely be going i was planning on turning up at the ground last minute and get in.

    I can't make it this time, but they definitely did when we played them 3(?) years ago.
