Is there a list somewhere of smaller clubs in and around london? I want to catch another match while I'm in London, in addition to Fulham/Everton on Nov 4th. I don't care how low the team is, I just want to catch another game.

Thank you so much for all of that info.
It looks like the only chance I have to make it to another match that day is to hightail it up to Loftus Road after Fulham/Everton. Their game starts at 3. How long does a cab take from Craven Cottage to Loftus Road? Also, If I'm lucky, maybe I can get West Ham/Arsenal or Spurs/Chelsea tickets for the next day.

Its less than 3 miles but you're probably looking at 15 minutes or more on a matchday.
Are you SERIOUSLY contemplating going to see QPR after Fulham?

Yes.
Think about it, Bee.
Fulham win + QPR Loss + Beer = VERY Happy day.
Conference National teams Grays Athletic, Woking, Gravesend & Northfleet and Stevenage are all within striking distace as well.

I shall probably be at the Northwood vs Banbury United game on the 11th. There are apparently some interesting Bars in the area.
A small correction to the above fixtures, Wealdstone now share with Northwood.

He might want to see a decent team play.

Hmmm.
Fulham = 11th in the Premier League
QPR = 16th in the Championship
Fulham = Brian McBride, Luis Boa Morte, Heidar Helguson
QPR = uhh, Peter Crouch? Oh wait, nevermind.
Craven Cottage = Beautiful, intimate stadium.
Loftus Road = Sh*thole
Shall I continue?

Loftus Road is quite an intimate stadium, and isn't really an ugly place, and still probably gets more of an atmosphere than craven cottage. It is somewhat bijou, as they say in property circles though, and not the most comfortable place to watch a match if you are in any way taller than average.

We will return, probably pass Fulham on the way down. What will happen when Fayed gets fed up with whinging about Chelski and pulls the plug. Funny it didn't seem to worry him when he was doing much the same thing.
