Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Samdy Gray on Friday, August 24, 2007, 10:27:56 Didn't realise this fixture was so soon :D
Should be a bit of a hoot. I'll be on the train for this one I think. Cheapest journey to Paddington is two singles at £20.50. Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Luci on Friday, August 24, 2007, 10:29:31 I'm dreading this fixture.
But going to go anyway.......... Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: reeves4england on Friday, August 24, 2007, 10:30:25 I'm in London anyway by then so I shall definitely be going! Hopefully it will be the perfect start to Freshers fortnight!!!
I'm sure people will have plenty of pubs to suggest, but I think it's probably best to stay away from Millwall until the game :o Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Panda Paws on Friday, August 24, 2007, 10:33:14 I'll be in Eastbourne by then and it's the Saturday at the end of my Freshers week so will be buzzing! Think a few of us will be coming up for it

That is ridiculous for a seat behind the goal. Hopefully the ridiculous prices won't put fans off going because we could take a lot there Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Give us an S on Thursday, August 30, 2007, 22:03:45 If you are gonna spend all that money going to an away game - travel, food, drink etc then why would an extra couple of quid on the cost of a ticket make a difference?

Actually I'll probably be working. Maybe.
Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: larwood on Friday, August 31, 2007, 11:07:52 I've been to Millwall [hurrah for me] The millwall striker who'd had cancer scored a great goal and we lost one nil,the atmosphere was rubbish and i didn't feel threatened once,all in all a hugely disappointing day.
Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: reeves4england on Friday, August 31, 2007, 11:18:26 Extra couple of quid?!!! I get in the Town End for £12. So that's an extra £8 for the same standard of football. As for travelling, I'll be in London anyway so that's not an issue!

Millwall vs Swindon is exactly the same standard of football as Swindon vs Millwall, for which a student ticket will cost £12. So there :P Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: herthab on Monday, September 3, 2007, 09:40:16 For those planning to train it down there, the OS states that the station nearest to the New Den will be closed over that weekend and that tube service is limited.

Can't remember the last time I had a drink before the football, that's the problem with having to drive.

Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, September 3, 2007, 10:46:02 Tubes fine - no planned works on those lines from the look of it. Always a limited service at the weekends anyway.

Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Simon Pieman on Monday, September 3, 2007, 10:51:28 I meant from what I read on the OS it looked like it was going to be difficult to get there.
The fact it STRONGLY advises to go by coach is pretty much making a mountain out of a molehill imo.

There is Sam: Engineering work between London Bridge, New Cross Gate and Tulse Hill from Saturday 29 September to Sunday 30 September 2007 But surely that's why the train people have said it's a replacement bus service to South Bermondsey... Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Samdy Gray on Wednesday, September 19, 2007, 17:21:33 Fair enough, think were just going on the choo-choo to Paddington, the onto London Bridge. Then get the tube.
Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Samdy Gray on Wednesday, September 19, 2007, 17:24:16 Well we'll tube it from Paddington then.
Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: donkey on Wednesday, September 19, 2007, 17:25:20 Quote from: "Si Pie" It won't take you inside the station will it. Hence the station will be closed.

Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Simon Pieman on Wednesday, September 19, 2007, 17:29:26 Oops I seem to have accidentally deleted my post (now who's slow?) :oops:
Anyway London it's easy enough to get around in London. I think the plan for me is to get a travelcard so can tube it around easily enough. Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: donkey on Wednesday, September 19, 2007, 17:32:55 Yeah, I just don't know SE London at all, hardly ever been, no reason to go, and I was born north of the river...a trip to streetmap will aid me...
Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Samdy Gray on Wednesday, September 19, 2007, 17:33:13 How much is a travelcard Si?
Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Fred Elliot on Wednesday, September 19, 2007, 17:34:23 £5.60 mate across 3 zones
Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Samdy Gray on Wednesday, September 19, 2007, 17:35:19 Not bad, should be about £20-£25 each then.
Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Simon Pieman on Wednesday, September 19, 2007, 17:36:30 Get one added to your train ticket and it works out cheaper
Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Fred Elliot on Wednesday, September 19, 2007, 17:39:12 Thats right
Buy it at Swindon Saves fucking about with all the other ants at Paddy tube station Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Simon Pieman on Wednesday, September 19, 2007, 17:43:16 Think it works out at about £21 per person from memory. Which reminds me, I need to find out if we've got ours sorted yet :|
Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Sussex on Wednesday, September 19, 2007, 17:44:31 I'll be going direct to London Bridge from down here, so when you know what sort of time you'll get there we can mob up and find a boozer.
Innit. Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Samdy Gray on Wednesday, September 19, 2007, 17:45:50 Group saver to Paddington is £74 = £18.50 each.
Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: Simon Pieman on Wednesday, September 19, 2007, 17:48:30 Add the travelcard on it's a couple of quid more. Check out the other fares bit in national rail.
Title: Millwall - 29th September Post by: donkey on Wednesday, September 19, 2007, 17:49:16 Streetmap has indeed helped me...Surrey Quays looks the best best by tube...and the walk would appear to be down along Reculver Road, which for some reason amuses me... :)

Quote South Bermondsey station is closed so your best bet is to get the tube to Surrey Quays or get a train to New Cross Gate. Both options mean you have to walk about 15 - 20 minutes. The Surrey Quays route leads you straight to the away end, while the New Cross Gate route means you have to walk through Cold Blow Lane and past the home end, not something many of you will want to do. Also DO NOT drink around the ground, drink around London Bridge or somewhere else up town. Have a good day out, you'll probably beat us but hey ho.

But I thought that at Rovers last season though :| Sussex, had a bit of a chat with a few mates who've been to Millwall and it's not really a "football type" problem, more to do with the fact that it's a pretty tough area and they are not wildly tolerant of outsiders - so any folk drinking in small groups will probably be seen as an easy mark for a quick mugging. So the advice you posted about people having a beer in the centre holds pretty good. I've never been so for all I know it might be a great place to eat jellied eels and have a right old Chas and Dave type knees up but I somehow doubt it .
