Anyone going?

There is a pub on each corner of the ground, with the Griffin closest to the away end
As featured on Green Street, but a lot smaller in real life

Also, any idea as to how many tickets we've sold?

im going mate, taking the misses as a treat (although she thinks its not... a little ungrateful id say) but i think theres just short of 500 tickets sold (iv been a little sad and counted them) i think we will get a good couple of hundred more as we have the london supporters club!

Not sure if I'm looking forward to Tuesday as I used to live in Brentford so have a lot of mates who are bee's fans. Bracing myself for a backlash if we loose. Taking my lad as well to teach him all things sky blue .

Regards parking, up until 6 it's not too bad around the local roads near the ground. The Lord Nelson is the other side of A4 so will probably be easier getting away and only about 5 minutes from ground.

Griffin is the best pub although bit pricey.

I'm meeting an old friend at the pub and he says there's plenty of parking. It's the one good thing about League 1 haven't paid for parking this season and nit walked more than 15 mins!

I think it's a £2 increase from what you could have bought them for..

All the four corner pubs are "away friendly" ..there are a few nice pubs a 15min walk away from the ground (Lord Nelson and The Globe).

South Ealing is the closest tube (Piccadilly line) and then a 20min walk or a 5 min bus ride.

Be careful where you park , it's free to park on the side streets but some of our own fans have had their cars broken into.. it's £5 to park opposite the train station but it has a guy looking after the cars.

Have you parked there before? I live in North London and I've been asking around about parking but everyone says it's a nightmare round there on match days. Just wondered if you know the area as I'm trying to get some tips!
