F.A Cup 4th Round - Millwall away

[PeterWithesShin]

It is probably best to go by rail, as South Bermondsey Railway Station is only a few minutes walk from the ground. There is a direct walkway specifically built for away fans which takes you directly to the away end and back to the station afterwards. This has made the Police's job of keeping rival supporters apart so much more manageable. If your team brings a sizeable following, then an 'away fan' football special may be laid on from London Bridge. In these instances the police are well drilled in getting away fans into the ground from the special train and safely away afterwards. Although don't be surprised if you are held in the stadium for sometime after the final whistle, before being allowed back up the walkway to the station.
There are also two London Underground stations in the area, Surrey Quays & New Cross Gate, which are both on the East London Line. They are about 15-20 minutes walk away from the ground.

I think we'll be looking for a pub some distance from the ground

Somewhere like Paignton?

Can get a bit grim around London Bridge if anyone thinks they can lord it in the pubs. You never know how these games will turn out. A last minute penalty or sending off can turn the mood like the flick of a switch. Not a game to be taken lightly. Not wearing colours doesn't guarantee a safe passage.

Maybe the club can pay for coaches. The players could have whip round.

View from the other side

Very winnable Villa are shit

Best draw in a while, and very winnable.

Winnable & what a shock that was Leeds getting a big team

We should sell out. Villa will take what ever allocation we will be allowed to give em

At this stage of the seasion we're doing okay. Trouble is, if they get the whole end, the resulting mayhem will end up with ground closure for the rest of the season!

You more likely be lanced by a £4 ciabatta around London Bridge nowadays. Borough Market has turned it into an overpriced tourist trap.

I was thinking more like Birmingham.

[The Man With A Stick]

Have we really not played these in any competition since 1990?

Liam Trotter should be off by the time we play them too. Off to Leicester apparently.

[PeterWithesShin]

I remember playing them in the FA Cup in the mid 80's I think. Drew at home in front of about 11,000 and lost the replay IIRC.
