A) My daughter (then 4) was on the train into London Bridge with my Dad when they passed Millsmall. My Dad mentioned to her that a club called Millwall played there, to which she simply replied "Scum".....Thats my girl!!!
Can do it in 2 minutes as long as the Police are not up to their diversionary tricks. Spot on about people trying to park up in your drive, before the Sheffield United game this season just gone some northerner happily turned into our drive to park up - he seemed disappointed when I told him that it wasn't actually a car park however if he provided me with his address I would happily come and park in his garden for the return fixture - he went after that!
When I lived on the corner of Lansdowne Mews I used to wait until the Red Red Robin was played, The TV vans arriving at 7am on a Sat morning could be a nuisance though - it was the late 70s! Now I live 2.5 miles away and have to get the 486.
It says 6.5 miles for me - but the directions are shocking. It says I should turn right across oncoming traffic onto the A20 - when it's a bloody dual carriageway with a bloody big barrier down the middle for miles!
147 miles as the crow flies. I don't pass any other football ground if I take the coach to central London though I do pass one cricket ground - Lord's. Going back by coach tends to routed via Bramall Lane and I therefore pass the pigsty.
About 13-15 miles from Greenhithe, 25-30 minutes straight down the A2 or 20 on a train. I drive a lot as my kids live in Kidbrooke (divorced) and my boy goes, plus as a member I get to park for free in the Lib club.

As above if I'm going from Maria's or 36 miles if I'm leave from Redhill - I go past Smellhurst on the train and I boo (in my head anyway :-))

I'll stick to my own little way. 1-1 in the jeerman game by the way
Used to live on Littleheath Rd, right by the entrance to the park tho. A tad closer!
