Travel:
By car: Traveling from Stoke-on-Trent, supporters can either use the M1 or the M6. If using the M6, at Junction 11a take the right hand lane and continue forward onto the M6 Toll (signposted The South). From there continue forward onto the M42, at Junction 7a follow the M6 (signposted London N and E). Continue onto the M1. To avoid traveling through London leave the M1 at Junction 21 and join the M25. Note - Junction 21a will take you in the opposite direction.
Leave the M25 at Junction 15 and take the M4 towards London, which then becomes the A4 up to Hammersmith. Carry on over the Hammersmith flyover and after a further one and half miles, take the turning for Earls Court. Continue past Earls Court station and down the one way system until you reach the junction with Fulham Road. At this junction, turn right at the traffic lights and after about half a mile, the ground is visible on the right hand side.
A number of local resident schemes are in operation around the ground, so supporters may have to park some distance from the ground.

By rail: Trains from Stoke-on-Trent to London stations are regular. Once in the capital supporters will need to use the London Underground system to reach the ground.
The nearest tube station to Stamford Bridge is Fulham Broadway which is on the District Line. From Fulham Broadway turn left and walk along Fulham Road and the ground is on the left-hand side.
Full details on using the London Underground system is available on-line.
The nearest overground station to the ground is West Brompton, which is served by trains from Clapham Junction (which is in turn served by trains from London Waterloo and Victoria stations).
It is around a 15 minute walk to the ground from West Brompton station. Turn right outside the station past the Tournament Pub, then right again into Brompton Cemetery. Walk on through the cemetery and Stamford Bridge is soon visible to the right. If it is a night game then turn right after the cemetery into Finborough Road. After a half-mile, turn right onto the Fulham Road.
Details on rail times are available from National Rail.
