Afternoon all

There is a group of us coming down from Warrington for the game and staying Friday/Saturday in the Heathrow Premier Inn (Bath Road). This will be our first trip to the Stoop and I am a bit clueless when it comes to London so I was hoping you might be able to give me a bit of advice.

What is the best way of getting to the ground from said hotel, and where is good for a few drinks and maybe a bite to eat near the ground? Just tried to look at the TFL website and ended up with a headache, what is the best ticket to buy, and should we bother with one of those oyster things?

Thanks in advance, looking forwards to the game! icon_thumb.gif

You've picked a strange hotel....but, here goes (from memory)

about a 2km walk to the nearest Tube station, Hounslow West and from there, about 35 minutes to central London. Don't bother with Oysters, but instead, buy a travelcard which are about a tenner a day I believe).
On match day, the 110 bus goes from Hounslow Bus station to Twickenham...it takes about 20 minutes....Londons motley crew can be found in the william webb eliss "spoons" pub qwaffing anesthetic pre match.....

Food wise, Hounslow is where bend it like beckham was based mate......if you like curry, then you'll be spoilt for choice, but it was always a bit light on decent pubs IIRC. You might find yourself in central London for a night out....if you do, make sure you avail yourselves of a night Bus home....the 35 minute tube journey in is shortened by about 10 minutes on the way out, by bus drivers who I am sure are force fed 5 litres of red bull before their shifts.... icon_lol.gif

enjoy the game.......

Thanks for the advice, not my choice of hotel, I think it must have been the cheapest. Looking forwards to it and meeting some of your fans.

I was going to be apathetic but I couldn't be bothered:Black Backgrounds/Sam the Eagle.gif



From memory it's about 2 miles from Hounslow West tube, may be easier to go into Heathrow & get tube from there

If its the one next to a pub called the Winning Post, the ground is on the opposite side of the road and a 10 minute walk
