    tottenham high road will be strictly home fans only.
    The spoons at Liverpool Street station might be favourite, otherwise there is a spoons directly outside Highbury and Islington tube station.
    Finsbury Park has two or three boozers next to the station.

    Boozing around Liverpool Street, apparently Northumberland park is best station for away fans.

    Nice glass of wine in the ground for me. 
  • Took Annual Leave for this. Going to have a few around Whitechapel. Will pop into the Hospital Tavern, Blind Beggar and The White Hart then head down to Bethnal Green station and get the overground from there 👍🏻

    You may well do the middle part of this but survive?
    Survive as in potential trouble?  or survive as in just casually avoiding getting stabbed as its N17?

    I don't expect any trouble Wednesday night.  We'll I'd be very surprised if there is.  We have got a very different fan base now compared to what it was 20-30 years ago.  The fan demographic has changed massively in recent times since the new stadium.

    Can't legislate for N17 inhabitants doing N17 things mind you.

    Northumberland Park to Stratford is a result I thought I’d have to go back via Liv St 👍

    A fair few of us are doing “The Cross Keyes” spoons in Liverpool Street/monument instead of the one at the station.

    Bigger location and proper spoons prices compared to the station one.

    It's next to Bruce Grove station but I'll be amazed if you got in there.

    So no active firm and no potential flashpoints? 30 years ago we passed a bus stop on the walk to seven sisters and it transpired that those appearing to be waiting for a bus was a mob of spurs.  Didn't stop running til Finsbury Park i think it was. Can't stand being ambushed. Very sneaky.

    Unless one of the South Korean's pull out a ninja star or one of the luvvies pulls out a vol au vent and a glass of Verve Clicquot from there pre-match hamper... or one of the LGBTQblahblahblahs knock you over the head with one of their 21st century pronouns, I don't think they'll be any trouble at all.

    (Might be a bit different if it was Arsenal, Chelsea, West Ham etc...)

    There's a LOT of facial recognition cameras in operation outside Seven Sisters, Bruce Grove, WHL, Tottenham Hale & Northumberland Park for PL games.  I would expect similar Weds night.

    They'll ask to see your tickets for the game if you're NOT in colours.
    They don't usually allow in away fans.
    Same with the Bluecoats on the High Road, just after Bruce Grove.

    Well, there's still LOADS available, nowhere near a sell out.
    I managed to get my daughters Charlton boyfriend a single ticket directly in front of me in 252 last night as one of my mates didn't take up his ST.

    All the lower tiers have sold out barring a handful of odd seats here and there.
    But there's loads available for the upper tiers.

    There's one block above you lot which is virtually empty barring the first 3 or 4 rows which are taken.

    @JohnBoyUK, appreciate you being here, any idea if we will be allowed to go back to White Hart Lane station afterwards or do we get put on  forced march to Northumberland Park? Image that we are lowest risk and can do what we want, and of course you may well not know, I tried calling THFC no answer. Thanks!

    I can't say with 100% certainty but we always get away fans back at WHL & NP station.  As you say, its a low risk game, I can't see police blocking off WHL to you guys.

    This stadium must have the most configurations of what people believe to be the best public transport route of any ground in the world!

    Something to bear in mind, from Seven Sisters, any bus ending in 9 will take you up the High Road to the Stadium and back to the tube if you can face the 20-25 min walk.

    Was in the hospital tavern and the BB, on Saturday wouldn’t bother with the BB.

    Are people printing out their tickets or just scanning from phone?
