Went to this game with a Boro fan and his Son. We went to Brighton Station and sampled some of the pubs the main drag from the station. Weather-spoons accommodated the away fans however we found a half decent pub in The Royal Standard which served all the usual lagers and ciders as well as showing Sky Sports. The ground itself is in falmer which is a very short train ride from Brighton Stadium though it can get very busy after the match and leaving 5 minutes early saw us beat the queues and get back home quicker. The stadium has a quirky design and feels very low when sat down, higher seats are advised if you want to see the other end of the ground. The food was top notch, a homemade Chicken and Ham Pie went down well and was priced at around £3.50 All in all a good day out at a new stadium that will be increased to 30,000 I'm told.
