The Bulls travel to Welling on Tuesday evening looking for their first away league victory against The Wings.

Many improvements have been made at Park View Road since the days of “The San Siro”  Visiting fans are now housed in the seated East Stand with standing provided on the Danson Park Terrace.  Admission is believed to be £15 for adults, £10 for students, £9 for over 60’s and U16’s with children under 12 going free.  There is a £1 premium for a seat in the East Stand.

HUISA – Departs from Radford’s at 1.30 pm with a fare of £30 (non-members £32).  Seats can be booked through The Club office.

TRAINS – Welling station is just less than a mile from the ground and is served by trains from London Victoria and Charing Cross.

BY CAR – Gloucester, Birdlip, Swindon to join the M4.  Leave the M4 at J4B and join the M25 anti-clockwise (sign Gatwick Airport).  Leave the M25 at junction 2 and take the A2 towards Central London (sign London SE & C, Bexleyheath).  At the Danford interchange leave to your left and take the A221 (sign Dover, Sidcup, Welling). Two more roundabouts follow in quick succession where you should follow signs for Bexleyheath/Welling.  Continue on the A221 (Danson Road) and turn left (traffic lights) onto the A207 (Park View Road).  The ground is on your left after about half a mile.  Distance is about 190 miles and you should probably allow over four hours given the potential for traffic on the M25.  Postcode for Sat Nav is DA16 1SY.

PARKING – None at the ground but, allegedly, plenty of street parking.

REFRESHMENTS – The Welling FC Social Club usually admits visiting fans and there is a Pub called “Guy Earl of Warwick” within 50 yards of the ground on Park View Road.  A little further, on your right you’ll find the Nags Head with “The New Cross Turnpike” (Spoons) on the left.  The Elite Fish Bar is just beyond Morrison’s after passing The Nags Head.
