Re: London Football Ground Challenge - for Sport Relief
I have now spoken with Tottenham and have recieved confirmation and they are expecting us between 9am and 10am so the time change shouldn't be a problem. They are expecting between 10 and 15 people, if there is likely to be lots more can someone let me know before Friday.

Re: London Football Ground Challenge - for Sport Relief
Yep we need to go to the Main West Stand Entrance and sign in with the security guards in the hut on the left. Someone that knows the ground better will probably understand that, but she said it was the main entrance to White Hart Lane anyway.

Re: London Football Ground Challenge - for Sport Relief
Well joy of joys there are enigineering works on the Piccardilly line so i be able to use travelcard on the Heathrow Express to Paddington which cuts a lot of time getting up there.
If the start is going to be delayed i might have time for a warm up run from Cockfosters to High Barnet

Re: London Football Ground Challenge - for Sport Relief
Okay taking all into account we will meet at Barnet FC from 0700 onwards at the corner of Westcombe Drive & Barnet Lane. We can then have a quick warm up session and depending on how many people turn up we will officially start at 0720, we need to be at New Barnet Station by 0747 for First Capital Connect to Finsbury Park, so depending how the warm up goes we might be able to start 5 or 10 minutes later.
Look forward to seeing you all on Saturday.

Re: London Football Ground Challenge - for Sport Relief
Ha, I was just about to post the iplayer link for you myself. Good job Antony, you media whore, we'll see if Lorna will live up to her promise one day eh? 
I'm half-excited, half-dreading tomorrow. The main dread part includes getting up at 5am tomorrow, driving to the smallest football league ground in London and then not even getting to watch any footy! I shall see you all bright (or maybe even dark?!) and early in Amy Winehouse*!

Hope it all went well guys, I really should have stayed with you instead of going off to MK
Enjoyed the first 5 hours anyway, although our keepy-uppy ability needs a little honing I think
