I live in Portsmouth, a bit further away!
I've gone to many away games on coach (non-league, never been to a spurs away game...yet) and we were always told not to drink as apparently it is illegal to drink alcohol on a public road, that didn't stop us and we never got caught and the bus driver didn't care much. So it's fine, but you do it at your own risk, just don't smash up the bus.
By the way I am so in
Oh and I live in Margate which is approximately a long way from North London. My dad walked it once and it took him 3 days
I would be up for this , if i can get my hands on tickets i'd love to go to an away day ...
Wembley would be a better location to start from, 5-10 minutes from the M1 then 15 minutes + from the A1 and M25. On the met line too.
He'll be joining in half an hour in! You watch
How about a 10 hour drive to Lyon?
Take shifts!
South of France, get the cheese in son!

Nice one, I'm from Ramsgate originally! Although I'm studying in Portsmouth at the mo. Are you going to Sunderland away?
Yeah lets take this international (before we've even taken it national
) Lyon easily do-able in 7/8 hours (f*ck knows what you're drivng eggsoakley
), loads of options for the ferry (drinking off to a flyer) or euro tunnel (for speed).Cheap hotels galore, etap, ibis etc.
This is a real easy one, with no sh*t airports and rip off airlines.
Get a VW Caravelle or Shuttle so we can get a wriggle on. WHO's IN?
I'd be well up for it if we can manage something. I've got a driver's licence but I don't have an insured car at home - can I still drive? p.s. I'm 21Yeah lets take this international (before we've even taken it national

Drive out on the wednesday I assume?
That would turn it into a 2 nighter.....as i don't think anyone would want to drive back straight after the game.
probably leave early thursday.......back friday evening
good thing is there is plenty of time to plan it as we're not at the mercy of the airlines. Never much problem getting a ticket for the ferry (bet you'd recommend portsmouth) or tunnel.

Yeah I think that would be good. Trouble is my mate is pushing to get the train booked now in case the prices go up, but I really want to do the trip this way - would be much cheaper! I'm not sure what to do now. I could potentially get two more people to come on the trip with us. Even if we get seven then that's 70 quid each (rougly) which is cheaper than the train anyway. I can drive long distances if I'm able to (can I do so without having a car insured on home soil?) - I drove to Eastlands and back in the same day/night when we got fourth!
Think you have to be 21 and have at least one year's driving experience to rent a car and drive it in France (same as the U.K.). I'd be more than willing to drive down to Lyon and help out. Calais to Lyon is about 7 hours and Paris to Lyon is about four and a half? Doable. Personally I'd rather get the Eurotunnel to Paris and drive from there as it's a much more manageable journey and isn't that more expensive considering that you'd pay less petrol and there's a lot of people to share the bill. Thoughts?
with all this procrastinating, people are getting priced out, my advice would be to book ASAP!
We need to get the numbers first! Only Four in so far haha
