The Sterile Area For The Portsmouth Game

[dune]

Will you be able to walk round the back of the Northam before the game to get to the ticket office?

bit in the Echo last night apparently OB are not letting on about the way they are taking the skate caravans to SMS, but answer to your question is no

[Huffton]

Ive got a feeling they may bring them down P**tsmouth road and over the bridge.. That way they can all jump off after the game...

I think they will use the M27.

[Toomer]

They will come in the same way we went out of Southampton I would have thought.

I still can't have the words "sterile" and "P*rtsm*uth" in the same sentence.

They'll come over Northam Bridge. Therefore I'm drinking in The Station so I can give them a lovely welcome

Good shout... I imagine they'll come in that way..off at the rose bowl junction and through hedge end

 

Unfortunately i'm sure the police will have huge numbers at every possible flash point on the way in =) Maybe 30,000 of us should all line up along Northam Bridge and launch bricks at them as they drive through

[Golden Balls]

I'm pretty sure they have to announce a day or two before the route they'll be taking due to traffic problems. Just like they did for our route

[bowers-sfc]

Taking the **** a little, we have to go through the kingsland stand to get into northam apparently

[Saint137]

Quickest least disruptive route I would think is M27 - Tesco junction - Botley Road - Portsmouth Road - Itchen Bridge.

 

Airport junction they'd have to close the link road, and to go over the Northam Bridge would mean either heading through Thornhill from Hedge End or once again from the Tesco junction.

 

I'm assuming all this will get posted will in advance, being Easter Saturday I'm guessing that West Quay/IKEA will be making sure they're not disrupted.

Pretty sure they will go through Bitterne, up Northam rd and the sterile area will be all Britannia Rd and part of Belvidere from the roundabout leading away from the ground.

So if drinking in the KA before the game will the walkway be open into the Northam car park to get to St Marys? Meeting a mate at the KA this time so not sure if I should stick to the Chapel as usual if it's going to more hassle if it's closed off.
