Walk from Finsbury Park?? I really would'nt reccomend it mate, bit of a walk, I did it in the 70s so I know :lol: The only way to tube it is to get the Victoria line to Seven Sisters and walk it, still a bit of a walk but if you walk it igcognito :wink: you should be ok. The nearest station is white hart lane which is on an overground line that starts at Liverpool Street so if you know that it could be the way to go but as I said, stay incognito if you go that way :wink: As for a bus? just try jumping on any one that's going towards the wrong end of the ss road and ask the driver. However you get there, have a great night mate.

To be honest if you're going in a group of more than two you'll probably be advised by the rozzers to walk seperately. And then you won't see them again.

All joking aside it is a fair walk from either station around there - and there are some very ill and very violent people who 'support' the Spuds. Don't draw attention to yourself unless you are in a VERY large group.

Fair play for going - you're more of a fan than I am on that respect. But it's high time something was done about this - Tottenham as a football club should be either forced to confront this as at least a fair share their responsibility or they should be kicked out of the league (arguable that should happen anyway).

Sooner or later there will be more deaths at these games. I have seen some very, very disturbing scenes around their ground and at Finsbury Park station where it just turned into a pitched battle.

Far, far too much hassle.

Good luck though - here's to a 5-0 win so that half of em bugger of 20 minutes before the end !

Really mate, don't get wrapped up in all the shit. Just be sensible, don't wear colours unless they're covered and don't get mouthy. Millwall away was far more scarier than anything I've ever seen at the **** shit hole and I've seen and heard of us have plenty of off field results there. Don't go there with fear coz they aint worth it, just go there with some common sense and hopefully a big smile on your face after the game :D
