Only do this if you are a plastic or it is a night game and you really really need to get the last train.

Never understood why you would pay all that money, take all that time getting to the game only to leave early. It's also irritating for other fans having to move out the way whilst you leave.

There are a few areas for street parking but London isn't that sort of city. The Islington area was built in the 19th century so cars are not catered for and with the price of property any spare bits of land are used for property developments.

It may seem strange not having a car park for foreigners, but out of town stadiums with big car parks are not the norm in the UK.

My advice would be to wait until we get a football manager.

Another top tip. Singing hurts the throat. Best to sit down.

You want to do that then sit upstairs and defiantly not in the lower tier or clock end where standing goes on for the full 90 minutes and singing comes in there.

I didn't see much of the upper tier joining in "We're the North Bank/Clock End" at the Basel game last week.

Wasn't there tbh. Gave up my season ticket as they wanted me to move to lower tier. I have no intention of watching back of people's heads for 90 minutes and having no atmosphere

There is enough of a gap to see clearly and NB lower tier is where the atmosphere is.
