Jaysus...they are going into meltdown about ticket restrictions....almost 600 posts already!! One Brighton supporter has announced he's "filling his pants with bangers". If they are that worried that their security will be incompetent for the (at least) 3rd Derby game in a row then they should conceded defeat now. Apparently you get a different stand at the Amex for cup games normally so hopefully a big allocation behind the goal. I doubt most of their supporters will turn up if it clashes with a Man U/Arsenal/Chelsea game.

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. Think that was answered at Ashton Gate in October.

This is an interesting wrinkle that I was mulling last night: which club has the stronger 2nd XI? Do we have a second 11 or is it just a second 8 judging by our bench last weekend

Apart from anything else it is an extra opportunity for players like Benteke to try and recover his form We have seven games before the 3rd round for him to recover his form.

If they reduce our allocation for tickets wouldn't it be right to reduce theirs?.

I hope we get a good allocation, but I suspect we wont and it will be nothing to do with Brighton. It is or fault and we need to face up to our responsibilities.Look at the comments-it was the 'fault of the police' for cutting the allocation by 600-why does this justify 150 Palace 'fans' without tickets throwing bangers, storming the gates, injuring stewards and forcing their own fans with tickets to miss the game? The Sussex police said last week was a high risk fixture and the fans couldn't be trusted-we proved them right.For the first time in many years, I didn't feel 'South London and Proud'. We should shut up, take whatever allocation we get, and prove we now how to behave, in the hope we might be able to show last week was a 'one off' and we can have proper allocations going forward.
