Or would this just be too much money/hassle? Seems pointless, given that Arsenal is the nearest tube station to AG. Whats AG? Ashburton Grove, the site of Arsenal's new stadium (although I think Holloway Road station might actually be nearer). Arsenal claim that Arsenal is the nearest, although this could be because HR is exit-only on matchdays. It depends where you are sitting. Arsenal is closest to the north end while Holloway Road is closest to the south end of the stadium. Actually Drayton Park is closest, which by some weird logic isn't used on match days....... only in England ;-) -- Edward Cowling "Time is not your enemy, forever is !!" |
