Thanks for this update! Well, there goes my post-match partying (not to mention my Charlie George tour in the morning)... I'll still be fine from final whistle to airport check-in, but does anyone have a suggestion on what to do with a carry-on bag while in the Stadium?

p.s. I once brought a check-in piece of luggage to Loftus Road (really!) but I don't think that would be allowed at the Grove.

Depending on what, if any, train stations you'll be using, you can leave a bag at a left luggage facility there for a small fee. King's Cross, Victoria, and most of the major rail stations have left luggage services.

Did that years ago; wasn't sure you still could, thanks!

I wonder if you contact the club, given the fixture change, whether they'll let you swap your tour reservations for another.

Wow...thanks for the heads up; just had to do some juggling of travel plans. Well, one more day in London, one less day in Barcelona. The weather better be top-notch on Sunday! :D

You can bring carryons into the stadium; well, I can't say this is the policy, but I went straight to the game from the airport in December and had no problems getting in with a full gym bag of clothes, toiletries etc. Can't vouch for full-on luggage, but I'd imagine you're OK. Call the club to make sure?

Ugh that was a nice curveball! I just rearranged my whole schedule for that w/end, including: legends tour, sending back QPR tickets Sunday for Fulham tickets Saturday, etc.

I'm guessing that the ticket pickup from Rick will be a few hours before KO on Sunday, like maybe 11:30? I hope so because my Saturday is pretty well crammed at this point.

[goonersf]

That would be my assumption. I will put in a query to aa tickets about it.

[DoctorK]

Flying out this afternoon. See y'all at the Grove! :D

Me too! See ya there, if not sooner. :)

p.s. Doc you I must be like minded... as much as possible I try to use the G word instead of the E word. ;)

[Jeff L]

I have a spare ticket for the Everton game if anyone is interested.
P.M. me for details. Usual rules apply.

[DoctorK]

Great time Sunday! Can't believe I caught my flight Monday morning...:eek:

Jeff, were you there? Didn't see you at the Tavern.
