Now that arsenal footbal club have shoved off to drayton park , are
there any murmurings at LUL about renaming Arsenal station back to
Gillespie Road? 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.


When I went I used Finsbury Park. What IS the nearest? I mean what are
the nearestest in their order?



Not the nearest but I find Highbury & Islington is always a pretty
good option if you want the Victoria line, and those wanting the
Piccadilly line might like to try heading west for the short walk to
Caledonian Road station.
