In his latest assault on the Falmer stadium (Letters, March 17), Brian Beck of Lewes bizarrely suggests people driving to matches would turn off the A27 at the universities, go past the stadium entrance and over the Downs on the B2132 before turning right at the congested Woodingdean crossroads and eventually stopping in the Brighton Racecourse park-and-ride, just so they could get a bus back to the stadium they had driven past half an hour previously.

I cannot imagine any sane person doing this. The Falmer site is well-served by public transport but people who chose to drive would naturally use a car park on their side of the stadium.

However, there is one scenario which would cause traffic chaos at Woodingdean: Lewes District Council cabinet members, MP Norman Baker and some Falmer councillors continue to clamour for the stadium to be built at Sheepcote Valley.

This site has few public transport links so if they were successful, a large proportion of spectators would have to drive to matches.

Would Mr Beck care to describe the route he would take to get from his home in Lewes to a Sheepcote Valley stadium?

I can tell him. It would be the same route most people living in East and Mid Sussex, and all points beyond, would take.

It would be the same route I would tend to take. Along the A27, over the Downs and through the middle of Woodingdean village - the route so precisely described in his letter.

That worries me, although I doubt if it bothers many of the anti-Falmer stadium brigade.

Woodingdean isn't on their patch. Nothing to do with them at all.
