Kings Cross to Waterloo (via Picadilly and Northern Line, I think) and then South West Railways to Kew Bridge (or Brentford given you are staying on the High Street). Brentford High Street is about a 15/20 minute walk from the ground which is very near Kew Bridge Station.

Hope you have a good trip!

The game may well move from Tuesday night to Wednesday or even Thursday night because Brighton play Liverpool on Easter Sunday.
Put that Travelodge on hold mate or pay on the day.

Well done chaps. I have a nice warm feeling from everyone being so helpful. I still cringe from the stick you gave that poor old lady wanting a Westham home ticket last year......

Arsenal are at home to Luton on the 2nd mate. You can go to that then get the piccadilly line near to the travelodge you are booked at. utter ballache but beats throwing loads of money away. its luton and a night game so hopefully you can get a ticket. west ham home to spurs too.

How do the 92 Club/Groundhoppers designate Spurs - a "new" ground in that it has been completely built from scratch, or an "old" ground in that they haven't really moved?

Maybe a new Stadium on old Ground?

 

[Glenisterbee]

I finished my 92 at the Emirates in about 2006. But I’m back to about 84/85 now.

The miner's strike must be a bit of a drag, but at least you've got Live Aid to look forward to.

Don't know how fast you walk mate, no way that is a 15 minute walk, half hour easy at least.

Put your dough on Last Suspect before the race (66/1) and put the winnings on Nortons Coin (100/1) to win the 1990 Cheltenham Gold Cup.
And then Leicester City for 26 years later .

Alternate route then.

The fella is staying in Brentford i think .

 

[jlove]

It’s about the same, maybe a few minutes less, to Acton Town. Save a stop on the tube if you’re coming from central London.

 

[Silly Hat]

Since when? ?

Not sure if I'm missing a mad joke here but you can't walk on any motorway in Britain.
You can walk alongside the A4 underneath though which is what I imagine Google Maps is encouraging you to do.

Well done.
Some strange posts here about walking directions hopefully the clarity might help out the first neutral visitor we've had in ages to actually get a warm welcome, who probably doesn't know anything about local roads.

Soon we need to get on to the real business why the ticket office are indicating they'll sell him a ticket with no membership

Very appropriate about Jay-walking, if I may say so.
