Parklife Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Anyone able to suggest a game to go to in London on the Saturday after our game? Looking at the fixtures, only Millwall seem to be at home out of the London based League teams. Anyone know of any conference/conference south teams that are at home and play within an easy commute from Central London? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deecie Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 I'm informed that the millwall game is likely to be cancelled due to international call ups. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jute Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Dagenham and Redbridge in the National league are at home as well against Gateshead. In the National South Dartford are at home to Hemel Hempstead Town. I was considering the Dagenham game but have booked an early train up the road instead.

Slide Tackle Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 4 of us also lookinh at going to the millwall game if its still on, will look at other options if it gets cancelled but im told its easy enough to pick up tickets at the ground so no need to buy tickets before hand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristolhibby Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 GIllingham play Northampton in League One. Colchester play Leyton Orient, Luton v Accrington Stanley and Wycombe v Morcombe in League Two. All doable from London. Lad in the office is a Gills fan and doesn't drive. He trains from Bristol to Paddington, then hacks across London to get a train to Gillingham and back every second week. Fair play to the man. Ill ask about tickets and trains, etc. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham of Montrose Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 Millwall ware formed by Scottish guys working at the shipyards. That's why their badg is a Rampant Lion.

KENTTA Posted October 20, 2016 Share Posted October 20, 2016 The Gills v Northampton (League 1). Gillingham is approx 50 mins from London Victoria or 45 mins from St Pancras on the High Speed service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parklife Posted October 21, 2016 Author Share Posted October 21, 2016 Cheers for the replies guys. Looks like if Millwall aren't playing then it's a bit of a journey. Don't really fancy spending 2.5 hours on a train for a return journey. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donaldo87 Posted October 21, 2016 Share Posted October 21, 2016 Dagenham at home in league two. Just over half an hour on the district line Vanarama National League South you have: Welling v Ebbsfleet - 35 mins from victoria or charing cross Think everything else within reason has been mentioned.

Ian a good (a do mean A GOOD!!!!) 5 minute walk to Norbiton station. The station is in the middle of a housing estate which you have to wind your way through to get to the main road.... there you have a couple of places (Fat Boy's Cafe is a good place to grab something to eat) and the ground is just down the road a little bit. Its totally different than when Wimbledon play, as Kingstonian only play to crowds of 150-250ish (probably be a slightly bigger attendance at this match with Dulwich (someone was once telling me that apparently they keep a swear jar in their section and anyone who uses fowl or offensive words or chants has to pay a fine ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dagenham and Redbridge v Gateshead is your best bet if Millwall is off Easy to get to Dagenham East tube station on the District Line from Central London. Should be roughly £20 to get in and it's a decent wee ground. I used go now and again to watch the Daggers when I lived in that neck of the woods and it was usually a good laugh.

In the real world they are a bunch of hipster wanks. If the fixture was at Dulwich, I'd recommend it as Champion Hill itself is pretty good whereas Kingstonian is a bit shit and it's much further than a five minute walk to the ground.
