Nice ground
Not in Brighton so you must get a train to falmer which is packed. Thankfully the train is free. Short walk to the stadium from the train stop then in a large open area with a place serving drinks and a big screen for fans to meet before the game. Insdie the stadium the seats are comfy and most seats have a good view. In general very modern stadium with good facilities (bar the group urinal in the mens which tends to back up) and getting a pie at half time isn't as difficult as other grounds. Obviously lacks an atmosphere but not to the extent people would have you believe. Nice singing near and in the North stand but other than that it can feel very quiet. After the game it can take ages to get on a train back to Brighton and the platform gets packed which is annoying. Overall a good day out although with a subpar atmosphere, but trust me youll be ok you dont need to sing to stay alive

Soulless
Soulless ground full of home fans whose second team is Brighton. Stadium in the middle of nowhere. Awful home atmosphere. Fans only occasionally sing their only song of 🎵 albion, albion, albion.

Great little ground
Decent modern stadium, comfy seats. Only downside is cramming on the train like sardines from brighton to falmer. The stadium is in the middle of nowhere.

A smart ground that suits its club
The location on the cusp of the South Downs sets this ground apart, with a gorgeous approach if coming down the hill from Woodingdean. But it's a little out of town and, while they've done what they can with transport links, getting between the ground and central Brighton is a chore. Inside the stadium there are good views throughout. The main West Stand looms impressively over the rest of the ground. Away fans are behind the goal in the South Stand but both South and North Stands are oddly shallow, somewhat lacking in ambition. Having said that, I liked it. It's more or less the right size for Brighton, a club whose support had to endure years at Priestfield and the Withdean. It has a safe, liberal, progressive ambience and it suits them rather well.
