    @golfaddick The 149 bus appears to be operating a near normal service from London Bridge to Edmonton via Tottenham despite the strike action by staff at Arriva.

    I used that bus once just to see what it was like. Couldn't make my mind up if I was on the set of Escape From New York or 28 Days Later.

    Where’s everyone planning on drinking before?

    The Ferry Boat (a pub by Lea Valley Nav) then walking.

    Are people printing out their tickets or just scanning from phone?
    Scanning on phone, laughing with the stewards how rubbish the system is

    Christ, it sounds like some of you are going out on an expedition.. I know Tottenham is ridiculously far north but it's not the artic circle..  

    How the world has changed, eh. Used to just turn up at St Martins tavern at Charing Cross and get on with it.

    Are the beehive and elbow room expected to be letting in away fans? 
  • Got a meeting in the London office late this afternoon, that must be in-person. So my boy is with me on a work experience day - before we do Liverpool St, McDs, get in ground early for meet-ups and a beer.

    Beehive best if you are going to Seven Sisters and walking. Antwerp Arms if you are going via WHL station.

    @JohnBoyUK how strict are they on their bag policy? I’ve applied for a medical exemption but not had a reply, I’ve also emailed and called but not heard back. 

    I don’t need a huge rucksack but needs to be bigger than their size restrictions

    Tottenham Hotspur Stadium enforces an extremely strict bag policy where any personal bag larger than A4 size (21cm long x 30cm high / 8.2in x 11.8in) is completely prohibited.

    As above by @TBWAH, dont risk it.  Otherwise you've got a lengthy bag drop queue to contend with before and after and they'll charge you for the privilege.

    Top tip. If you get there early enough, the Beehive does (or at least did) 2 pint glasses. Saves on those trips to the bar. Probably by as much as 50%.

    We are lucky to have @johnboyuk and @tbwah with us at this difficult time. I hope all these questions don't result in a slew of complaints afterwards when we have lost heavily, no-one got away for their last train on time, half was held up in a bag queue and only a few could get to a local bar for a drink.

    I lived near Bruce Grove in the late 80s as a student, the classic divey house share, so the walk up Tottenham High Road always brings back memories.

    The Elbow Room was our local, back then it was one the first Wetherspoons. Which seems amazing now, considering how small it is inside!
