Making my first venture into that there London next week, is there parking at the ground or street parking?

I wouldn't advise parking in London if you are going to Crawley unless you are parking at a railway station.

HTH.

Not parking in London, I meant heading down that way, was really looking for help from somebody who has been, you know to away games like

I have been to hundreds of away games thanks. It will take you a lot of years to catch up.

It's on the edge of town, similar to Stevenage if my memory serves me right so plenty of parking available. I'm sure it was only a 10 minute walk from the town also so worst case park in town and walk to the ground.

The ground is close to a residential area, you should be able to get parked within a couple of minutes walk I would have thought.

And the sooner you and PJ get a room the better.

We stayed in a hotel a near the ground about 10 years ago for a game at Brighton, once you see a roundabout with a big red football on your sorted. There's a bar in the back of the home end which we have always found friendly enough, to be fair everyone we spoke to when we were there was friendly enough.

Booked the coach on Thursday, there wasn't many takers at that stage or a departure time, they said they'd get back in touch if anyone is thinking about the coach.

i would have taken the coach but my eldest daughter lives in Nantwich and is complaining she doesn`t see her little bro and sis too often, she is a teacher so cannot get up often, we have struck a deal where when Pools down south, I take them down on a Fri night, go to the match on me todd and return on a Sunday, win win!

Seemed to be quite a few booking travel for the Orient game on Bank Holiday Monday, that's one I would imagine be popular.

Was a lad in on Friday when I was in and he was booking Crawley, and was getting 3 tickets, so there's another 3 on the bus ! Think there's 25 on the bus for Newport. Hasn't been as popular as I thought it would be, though I guess for the midweek games folk are also having to book a day off work an all.

If you were on a bike Friday I was the lad getting the tickets so its not any more, we were seats 3, 4 and 5 for the coach. I was booking for orient as well and that coach was already more full

I may be deluded but when Mr coxall announced that he would be laying free transport to away games I thought the Saturday matches would have had a few coaches leaving from the Vic , I know we might not be setting the league alight but its a cheap day out seeing pools but then again I may be deluded
