I am going to see the villa game on Wednesday 21st and I have to be at St Pancras before 22:20. I don't know if the tube is reliable at night and this is my first time to the bridge! With stoppages I might miss trains. Any help would be much appreciated.

Going to be very tight if you stay until the end of the game.

I can't think of a viable solution for you, other than leaving 10 mins before the end.

Sacrilege!

I know but it's at least 35 minutes on the tube back to St Pancras, and thats without any delays, and sometimes it can take 30 minutes just to get on a train.

Well I'm staying until final whistle so gunna be tight thanks anyway. Just hope we win now!

The only way you'll make it to St Pancras if you stay until the end of the game is by Taxi and even that will be tight.

You'll be lucky to get on 1 of the first 5 trains out of Fulham Broadway if you stay until the end of the game.

 

Where do you have to get to after the game?

Fulham Broadway will be a nightmare.

Taxi it might have to be then. Got to get for Fulham Broadway to St Pancras then to the overground St Pancras international to get back to derbyshire. Best bring some more cash with me to be ok the safe side.

I know its not ideal but if it is that tight for time just leave a little bit early.

Walk from the ground to Earl's Court and get the Piccadilly line to King's Cross St.Pancras?

 

 

Would take about 35/40 minutes including the (brisk) walk.

Yeah bring more cash just to be safe but stay out of the club shop if you have extra cash on you could end up with no money at all. Ha ha. Hope it works out for you.

Forgot about the gates being closed... Could still cut through just after the cemetery though.

It would be no less then 40 mins drive.

Cab won't be cheap!

Forgot about going to Earls Court, stand at the exit for the final whistle, then run like mad to Earls Court.

Where are you sitting in the ground.

East stand row 22 I think but I've got enough for cab better to be safe then sorry.

Remember also St Pancras can easily take 10 minutes transfer from tube to train and a while from taxi to train depending which line and which platform - try and find out in advance where you train goes from so you can run to the right place without having to check the boards and find the correct way - if I was you I'd set a latest time to leave the ground to make it to your train, then be ready at the exit and leave at that time even if the game isn't over

 

You never know, they could start late for some random reason, there could be 10 minutes of injury time, they might randomly close the exit you need to take making the queue twice as long. If you are stressing about getting home you're not going to enjoy the game as much anyway so you're better of just facing the fact now that you might need to leave a little early and enjoy what you can! Hopefully we'll be many goals to the good already :-)

Cheers for all the help guys lets hope we play well and win.

I just remembered this thread, how did you get on?
