Welcome to our world. As London away supporters we have these travel issues every other week throughout the season.
There have been too many occasions when playing times, venues or even the day of the game have been changed for us, at very short notice.
The thought of the powers that be is that our numbers are few, so we do not matter.
For me. If I want to attend I will find a way.

The club have an opportunity for a very special night. Wire have little to play for (they will surely be safe). We have nothing to lose, if we get beat let's go down all guns blazing. You never know, they have had a fortnight off and maybe, just maybe, we can catch them cold in what for them is a strange environment.

3 of us heading down and staying over. Any decent pubs nearby? Thanks in advance

Close to the ground there is one pub - Duke of Kent, Scotch Common, Fullers pub with a large beer garden. If you are really lucky the Pimms Bar will be open. A little further away on Pitshanger Lane is the Village Inn. Both are good pubs. And as said there are a lot of establishments at Ealing Broadway.

Karetaker, look on the positive side at least it's on Saturday so the m6 will be less of the moving traffic jam than it is on a fri or Sunday. You are only having t do it one weekend though buddy.
As being bosty says for us we have the problem every away game!!!! Go on have an adventure, come down to west london, it's always better than telly.

Not surprised that junior is dropped

I see that we have the same referee as for the Featherstone game. What have we done to deserve him.

This should be a game made for him, up against big rough, forwards, sadly not.

You wouldn't think he will be with us next year

What really irritated me in the Fev game was the attitude of our players to the ref from the get go, even when we were on top. They were in his face all the time. When he gave a decision against us our players should have transitioned into defence not stood around him like footballers yapping away. It demonstrated to me a lack of composure in what was a relatively big game.
