Not the same view though they are in the lower tier so it's not classed as the same

Well, I was mulling over making the trip down, parking up at Stanmore, getting the tube into Bond Street and then changing tubes and getting the tube from Bond Street to white City, but at £30 a ticket plus diesel cost plus £17 for the tube ticket, I think I'll give it a miss!

You were never going then really. Did you expect it all to be free, it's 180 miles away mate.

It's £9 for a day pass for zones 1 & 2 which you will need if travelling by Train. Kings Cross St Pancreas > Oxford Circus (Victoria Line) and then Oxford Circus to White City (Central Line).

However from Stanmore means travelling through zones 1-5 which day pass does cost £17.

If you are getting the tube, here is a simple map showing the stadia in respect to each of the station, they are all a few minutes walk (with the exception of Shepard's Bush which is about 10 minutes).

What a load of nonsense.

Cash fare is £5.50 single.

Oyster can be done for as little as £3 return.

Is the £17 pass for "peak" times?  An off-peak ticket will be cheaper, today will be all off-peak.

Park at westfield shopping mall at Stratford, for a fiver, then get the central line direct to White City. An off peak day pass from there is £8, or it was in August!.

edit - just checked, an off peak day travelcard zones 1-6 is £8.90.

Isn't it great that the Supporter Liaison Officer is churning out a load of ill informed nonsense.

Another example of the shocking communication skills of the Club.

N.B. And it's St. Pancras. A pancreas is part of the human body, not a train station.
