Getting to Dagenham

Getting to Dagenham

Postby Plain Peter » Sun Sep 13, 2009 2:59 pm

Anyone travelling through London and using public transport should be aware of the following:

The Transport for London website is showing the District Line being suspended between Upminster and Barking on 26th September. The easiest way will be to get the District Line all the way to Barking and then get the replacement bus from Barking to Dagenham East. Allow at least an hour and forty-five minutes from central London.

What Is It Like For Visiting Supporters?
As the Club arecurrently undergoing building work on what was originally the away terrace, the capacity for away fans has been severley reduced to a maximum of 350. These are all seated places with 200 seats being made available in the covered Barking College Stand. Although this stand does have cover, it also has a number of supporting pillars that may impede your view . It also set back slightly from the Main Stand, which means that it is a bit difficult to see into one corner of the pitch. Places for wheelchair supporters are available at the front of this stand, at pitch level. If demand requires it then an additional 150 seats can be given to away fans in the Main Carling Stand.

350 does this mean teams who have a bigger support will just be turned away :?
