Anyway, yet to hear back from my Brighton mate, but I'm not fussed on Brighton or Lewes. Lewes sounds pretty good, but I think Tory-boy has family around Brighton and so might want a trip to the seaside. I'm easy.

Any suggestions for a starting 11 from those who manage to see the games. I have a feeling it may be something like what we used against cardiff given that Brighton like to play through midfield so Pratley might get in to close the back 4 down.Should Butterfield start ? Ngog at CH ?

My sister lives in Brighton. That doesn't necessarily determine my plans as I could stay with her Friday or Saturday night.

What are your latest thoughts?

I'm sorry - I can't help but think of that mitchell and webb sketch where the hymn request comes from Sulky Abbot in Bumsex....

All right, well I'll get onto my Brighton mate to see if he is going. If he is, I'd probably favour going seeing him at some point either before or after. If not, from what I can tell Brighton and Lewes are both nice enough places, so I'd not be fussed either way. I will report.

A heads-up for anybody who might be stopping overnight Saturday: the trains are a bit screwed towards London on the Sunday it seems, with a bus replacement to Three Bridges. You can however, if it fits your plans (as it does ours), go by train all the way from Shoreham-by-Sea on the way back (ticket permitting, the standard returns don't cover it I don't think).

Anyways, I do expect Freedman to employ his 'horses for courses' approach so yeah reckon we might see Spearing back. Perhaps an attacking mid to exploit on the break, but Dazza Prazza? Gawd knows, it's hard to tell at this point who he's made his mind up about.

I think he's made up his mind that Ngog is a winger... and that KD is ace....
