Hi there,

This Sat I'm off to the bridge for the first time to watch the Norwich game and am just hoping for a bit for advice.
Can I take a bag in with me? It's going to take me 8 hours to get to the bridge and am planning on taking books, camera and other entertaining bits and bobs but don't want to get there to find out I can't get inn with a shoulder bag for security reasons or anything else.
What's the best way to get to the Bridge from Victoria coach station?
How long will it take to get back to Victoria coach station? My coach leaves at 18:30.
Anything else I should know or be aware of?
Any help on this would be most appreciated :^)

I really dont think you can enter with a bag for security reasons and for taking up space where you sit as you havent got that much space at all and you almost literally sit on top of eachother!

Some english people will have to answer the victoria station questions as im not familiar with it :p

Buy a matchday programe before you enter the stadium, think they cost 1 pound and you'll have something to read + memories once you leave the bridge and do ask any steward if you got any questions at all, they are really friendly.. it can be a bit tricky to know where you are supposed to enter (depending where you sit, east/west/mhw/shed end) when there is loads of people walking about everywhere I had to ask a steward and he showed me what queue I had to take I was literally almost lost and im not the tallest man on this planet really!

Hope you have a good day, its so amazing!

I have seen some people with bags entering the stadium, but they were mostly biggish ladies' bags or Megastore plastic bags. The stewards checked all bags. Perhaps you should contact the club about it.
Andreas obviously didn't pay for his own match programme :biggrin: , it's 3 pounds.

The District line (tube) is the connection between Fulham Broadway and Victoria tube station (you may have to change at Earl's Court). From Victoria bus station to Victoria tube station is an easy walk, it may take between 5 and 10 minutes. It is signposted. Check on the Transport for London site whether the tube runs that weekend (www.tfl.gov.uk).

Don't eat the dodgy beef in a roll thingie during half time. Your match programme will taste better.
