Yea ive heard that about the area, but been recommended the Antwerp Arms for a pre match drink. Not far from stadium. Mate says they do food too. So will be giving it a go.

The stadium is superb, except for price of booze and grub, but the area is horrible and access to and from it is awful. It confirms my view that I wouldn't live in London for a solid brass pig.
Whilst I wouldn't expect him to be happy, doesn't Watson come over as being a curmudgeon to rival Powell.
I understand that there is a rumour that we won in the closing stages. Is this rumour true?

We stayed over and got the Tube and then about a mile walk to the stadium.

Didn’t venture into the bars pre game but there seemed to be plenty on the walk to the stadium servicing both sets of fans.

Though the atmosphere was superb within the stadium even for the 1895 final.

Great access to the bars and toilets and the stewards were very good, looked to be enjoying the game and taking a real interest in it.

Bit of a struggle to get away but that usually is the case for big games.

I’d be happy to adopt Tottenham over Wembley going forward.

I would too. It'a a long haul on the coach, but if I went by train again, I'm sure my London-savvy son, who lives there, would sort me out. Londoners tend to use the buses.

The stadium is something else. Easily the best in the UK, bar none imo.

Stadium very impressive as were the Spurs staff in every department bar none hats off to them as well in making it a stress free experience . Great to go to a sporting even where there are no overgrown gorillas that think they are King Kong acting as security guards shouting the odds . We had a problem with a round of beers that obviously were not right we took them back 15 minutes later and they were changed without question and came with sincere apologies . Customer service at its best all round the stadium.
