This Berkshire/Hampshire local totally recommends this route, faster and much less millage than the M25 route. Could get busy around B'stoke at rush hour but no route is perfect for this trip.
Me too, I used to live in Basingstoke. It isn't too bad rush hour in Basingstoke, Black Damn roundabout just before M3 can be a bit slow but that's probably what I'd do unless the M3 was screwed. Coming from Swindon I've also done M4->A329?->Bracknell Harvester->Aldershot. Its a bit longer but I was hungry!

In which case your A34 route starts to make more sense. At the risk of sounding like a complete anorak, I'd suggest the following:
A44 to Oxford A34 to M4 M4 to Reading (J11) A33 to the end of the dual carriageway section on the Berkshire/Hampshire border B3349/B3011 to Hartley Wintney A323 to Aldershot
This incorporates some of the route I use to get up to Swindon and the M4 from Farnborough. Don't be put off by the B roads...they're fairly quick.
I use this route regularly to get to Farnborough (from the M4 J11) and its highly advised. I've only just realised I'm in Farnborough all day tomorrow and in London Wednesday, staying locally overnight. What a twonk....so another plea for a spare ticket (I'll need to know by about midday though).

I've just tried to register on the Shots forum. They seem a decent bunch to be fair and there is talk of joining in with a Paolo Di Canio chant and clapping our players at the end if we get promoted/win the title.
I'm also going to ask where I can park my Massey Ferguson near the ground and is there somewhere to tie the pigs up while I watch the game.

I was going to say the same. I am quite sure that Aldershot are expecting a good number of our fans in their ends, given that we sold out early on and then didn't 'cross the line' on Saturday. (Their fans are, certainly, according to a few posts on shotsweb.co.uk). As long as people keep it sensible - as I'm sure they will - I can't see there being a problem. Out of interest, pumbaa, what you are doing in Farnborough?

There are a few pay and display car parks just up the road from the ground.
I had a look on google maps.
