Fulham Broadway is the tube station for Stamford Bridge 😎
UTMM


Yeah, Fulham Broadway just a 5-10 minute walk from Stamford Bridge.

If you were driving the tube is your best bet. Find somewhere on the edge of London, park there and get the tube in as parking near the ground is awful and nearly all the side streets within easy walking distance are residents only.

Quoted from Heisenberg


I disagreed with you at first, but actually it is a b#st#rd to get to, and on a Wednesday too.  Saturday, no problem, we'd sell as many as they're willing to give us (10,000?), but a Wednesday?  Hmmm, I'm not so sure now.  Definitely go on general sale, I'm sure of that.  Most of the older and really young ST holders probably won't go.

I always remember us taking loads to Arsenal, but North London is actually very easy to get to from up here.  West, though - nightmare.

Anyway, if truth be told, as things stand I'd say it's very much 50/50 against Macc, it could go either way.  All of this nonsense may be futile.


You’re right it is a illegitimate to get to and after the match they kettle you into Fulham Broadway if your on the tube which is not pleasant. I’d recommend parking in a side street even if it’s a good walk away

Most of the side streets that aren't residents only have parking meters along them and it's quite pricey to park, even a good distance away. Not sure whether it's 24 hour pay or if it's free after a certain time in the evening though.

Anyway, all this will be academic if we don't win on Tuesday!

Last time we played them it cost me over £20 to park for 4 hours and that was still a 45 minute walk away from the ground  I'll be parking up and getting the tube in next time

If we beat Macc on Tuesday as it’s my week off I’m planning driving down to Chelsea and then on to Devon for a few days after to take in the Exeter away game. I’ve had a quick look and I’m seeing Uxbridge would be the best place to park and then get a tube to Earl’s Court?

Quoted from Yossarian
I hope you are right GrimExile - I always seem to recall Chelsea get a decent attendance even for crappy games against the likes of us - Palace last year were great and it makes a big difference when the home club at least has some fans there.  It is a tough sell to be fair for a mid week game against a league 2 club.  


Speaking to my boss, who's a season ticket holder at Chelsea - he says a lot of the usual fans don't bother with the early cup games/games against lower opposition, hence why they make it so cheap....basically, he said it'll be full of tourists!

That will merely give us the opportunity to grow our international fan base.
