Hi all.

Gillingham fan here but I have posted on here or another Stanley board in the past. We will be coming through Stratford on our way to Spurs on the same night so hopefully bump into some of you to say hello.

I went to the Rugby world cup at the stadium and the view is fine so don't worry too much. It won't be the close up view that us lower league small ground fans are used to be it gives a different perspective.

Westfield shopping center is a few minutes walk from the stadium (if you catch HS1 from St.Pancras International then you will come out next to the shopping center) has loads of places to eat from fast food outlets to some standard chain restaurants.

Enjoy your day and hopefully see some of you. I think you'd get good odds on both of us celebrating at the end of the night but we didn't choose out teams because we expected to win did we.

For those staying over then get the train back into St.Pancras International from Stratford International NOT Stratford and get a hotel around St.Pancras - loads of premier Inns etc on the Euston Road.

For those driving who don't fancy driving into London a good option would be go through the Dartford Tunnel down the A2 as if you were coming to Gillingham. Turn off at Ebbsfleet International station, loads of parking and its a 15 minute train ride up to Stratford International. A longer journey but saves going into London.
