ralphindevon Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 Those that are planning on using the tube after the game would be advised not to hang around too long. All tube lines are being wound down on Sunday evening leading up to the following weeks strikes. People are advised to make their journey by 5.30. The Elizabeth line to Paddington, by far the quickest way back to Paddington station, should still run as usual on Sunday. Anyone staying over (me) Monday will be chaos as there will be no tube and disrupted Elizabeth line. So packed buses, walk or hire bike.

Lanterne Rouge Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 4 hours ago, devoncider said: Our second game with VAR... First was another FA Cup tie during the covid season vs Premier League Sheff Utd (think purple shirts, Alfie Mawson and Ryley Towler). Mawson was sent off & Sheff Utd awarded a pen via VAR, which Billy Sharp (of course) duly tucked away. Man City cup tie was pre VAR - a better time! VAR was a thing when we played Msn City but wasn`t used as it couldn`t be in both legs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're desperate to flog it. And yes, it was thanks to the SC&T escalation that we got the two sentence "explanation" as to why we have splat robin on the front. However, all the above being said...it's kind of the best choice practically speaking. We can't wear the black kit against claret. Our red home kit might be ok but it's a bit dodgy. Unfortunately the yellow kit is the best clash against West Ham's kit. Free printing eh? Maybe they could print the badge on the front for me?

ChippenhamRed Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 On 02/01/2024 at 12:20, ChippenhamRed said: I'm going to this game with my 13 year old in the safe standing area. He's about average height for his age. Does anyone have experience of being in a safe standing area with young people - is he likely to be able to see the game clearly? Obviously this will depend to some extent on who's in front of him, but just wondered generally if it's an issue. I know some safe standing areas in other stadiums don't permit children. The rake looks fairly steep in the upper tier, so I'm hoping it will be OK. Just bumping this. Anyone know? Little bit concerned. Was actually thinking of bringing a little folding step for him, but I see West Ham don’t let you bring in rucksacks (no bags bigger than A4), so I don’t think I’d get it in.

Anything on the way through worth visiting? Thanks in advance Here’s a good link for parking at Ealing Broadway Shopping Centre. It’s a maximum of £12 for 24 hours and is a very short walk to Ealing Broadway station. I think the car park is locked from midnight to 6am, so don’t leave it too late to collect your car after the match, if you choose that option. https://www.ealingbroadwayshopping.co.uk/parking-ealing There have also been some suggestions of using JustPark and that costs around £7. There’s also limited parking opposite the station, so plenty of parking options near the station. Note there’s a Tube strike on Sunday, though the Elizabeth Line isn’t part of the Tube, so will still run as normal I’d recommend only parking somewhere near an Elizabeth Line station, if you’re parking anywhere in West London and then using public transport across the City. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True there’s a tube strike but it’s not affecting the whole of the underground at least before the game, according to the TFL journey planner. I’m travelling from Chiswick and you can get from Chiswick Park on the district line to Mile End then the central line to Stratford though you’re advised to complete journeys before 17.30 so fine before the game but have to get on your toes after.

That’s why I flagged that up, just in case anyone hadn’t realised. Really knackered my plans, as I’m staying up there a couple of nights and planning to travel around a fair bit and always use the Tube.
