Graham Potter feels for Albion and Brentford fans over their unpopular Boxing Day kick-off time.

Seagulls and Bees go head to head at the Amex at 8pm.

Albion have laid on a range of extra travel options, which can be seen at brightonandhovealbion.com.

Head coach Potter said: “I feel for the supporters.

“I’m not sure it is the best time if I am being polite.

“It is a lot for them in terms of the challenges they will have in getting to the ground.

“I understand the club has done a really good job in terms of help in trying to help get them there, travel plans, but clearly it is not the best.

“As a supporter you want to be there at 3pm or midday.

“Get a bit of air, have a day at the football, but it is not to be.

“But I’m sure that the guys that are there are the ones that will support us, they always do.

“They will get behind the team but it’s not a great time and I feel for them in terms of the time of the kick-off.”
