Yes 10 junctions on the M25 and then the Dartford Toll there and back.

| More the extra hour that it would be to wombledone
Re the re seeding at plough Lane, did sit with a colleague at last game who told me it was seed not turf laying we both thought time scale was interesting as a lot depends on weather for the even growth despite the use of lamps etc

The journey from Featherstone to Northfleet by car is actually a slightly shorter journey than to Plough Lane.
In my mind it is a better journey too, using the A1, however you do have to pay the Congestion Charge at the Dartford Crossing both ways.

Two Dartford Congestion Charge fees are two pints, even in Wetherspoons in Gravesend.

In truth, we are no longer paying a toll.
The authorities were crafty and changed it to a Congestion Charge.
Same difference I agree, but they will argue different.

| On the local ITV Meridian News, there was a feature about Sundays game featuring the Leyland brothers returning to their old school for a training session.
At last something in the local media. Nothing in the local paper!

I'm not worried about the millions of his cash he's flushed, more so the millions of central funding he's wasted with it. Quote: jbuzza "On the local ITV Meridian News, there was a feature about Sundays game featuring the Leyland brothers returning to their old school for a training session.

Good PR and maybe it'll attract a few to the game(s) but I find it hard to fathom that this was ever part of the original 5 year = 5k fans plan.

It doesn't really matter if it's Hughes cash or central funding that is being wasted. The net result is the same, the club withers through bad management.

Of course they will but the bottom line is that by giving it a different name we still have to pay to cross.
Sneaky, that’s what it is. Shows you can’t trust any of their promises.
No doubt same will be said if the other Thames crossing gets built. And we’ll still be paying to use it forever.

| As a relatively frequent user of the crossing it's generally easier using the bridge from Essex to Kent. The northbound route through the tunnels is more likely to be congested. We are heading off down the North Kent coast after the match to avoid the congestion and travelling back after 10pm when the crossing is free

| Looks as if the Broncos coach didn't get over the crossing 25 gone 22 down!

| Probably as well not playing at PL as would just be another nail in the Broncos coffin.
