and you can now get a train direct from hemel/watford to white city and imperial wharf - excellent news for when we next play qpr and chelski


And HS2 will get you directly to Brum to see us play the Blouse - should be ready by the time we get back up to the second tier.

Moving to Northampton on Tuesday for abit, so if any London based town fans who have a spare space to a home game and don't mind picking up en route to Grimsby on the M1 that would be spot on, obvs I'd contribute for petrol.
Probs nearer march/April il be hoping to get to a home game.
So if you need a space filled just message me on here. Thanks.


GT GTF GTFC OK!

Remember being there for that groves goal against Fulham
Last game of the season to stay up. Pitch invasion from the pontoon end good times.

Ok well thanks to everyone for the input I'll keep an eye out on here regarding people travelling. How far ahead to people tend to plan so I know when to look out for what game

That......could be quite a long time (thinks back to Groves scoring in the 1-0 win at Loftus Road)

Crossrail will get us to Ipswich??


will get me to
1) oxford & mk tosserrs - being optimistic
2) cambridge - being realistic
3) bedford - being pesimistic
4) bicester town - being suicidal

2) forest green & plymouth - being realistic
3) worcester - being pessimistic
4) wales - being suicidal

eh?? when was the last time you tried that journey? It's exactly 30 minutes from West Hampstead Thameslink to Luton these days. It'll take you that to get from West Hampstead to St Pancras on the Jubilee/Circle line.


I use it regularly (live in Bedford, commute often into LDN). Must admit my only experience of stopping at WH is late on a Friday when all the fast trains home have gone. That one is a mare (stops at Cricklewood, Mill Hill etc). Didn't realise there was a fast one running from there.

Still quicker from St Pancras tho.

BTW, the Thameslink direct through London (in regards to getting to Woking) does not run at the weekend, it stops at St Pancras and you have to change. I often have to get flights from Gatwick on Saturdays and Sundays and it's a right pain. Gah, can't believe I'm posting about bloody trains. This is what 30 years in LDN does to you.

Lived in London for a while now but all this talk is confusing the hell out of me but glad to have learnt about the H&y situation. I will hopefully try and tag along with someone to the games I think. West hampstead is just down the road so ideal!


I too am a lone GTFC supporter trapped in London. The Cambridge game i took my missus, but she just complains about queues and feeling cold.
Id be up for meeting up for the London area games.
