For any info ahead of game at Chelsea other than tickets and coach travel.

Links for these threads along with ticket info and Accy Clarets will be in the sticky post.

That “early bird” offering on the food and drinks inside the stadium looks very reasonable. Especially as there aren’t any watering holes near the ground that we can get into. Good initiative this from Chelsea.

I don’t think so? But I don’t use our catering bars on match days.
A bloke on the train on Saturday claimed he had paid over a tenner though for a pint of crap lager and a pie.

Probably end up going Earls Court again then tube to ground

Man City did a few years ago when my lads were younger. We got in early and all soft drinks were about a quid.

Quite possible, as a potato pie is £4.20!

Arsenal do.

If we have taken the reduced allocation, those in the lower tier will have no access to alcohol. The only snack bar is in view of the pitch so they are unable to sell beer. The concourse bar will be in the extended home seats.

Allocation is 2117.

Always the best option at Chelsea. Plenty of pubs/food places and not far from the ground.

You need to ask on this thread, mate.

The walk from Earls Court to ground is a good half hour

There’s a big pub called the goose I think about 20 mins away that is cheap and shows football

Anyone received match tickets in the post yet?

Mine arrived last Tuesday.

White horse by Parsons Green is a belting pub.

Another vote for the White horse by Parsons Green is.

The Sloaney Pony as it's also known. Be ready to take out a new mortgage for a pint in there.
