Away Day Guide – Crystal Palace
The Whites are back again against forever hero Roy Hodgson and his boyhood club Crystal Palace. Here’s your guide for those travelling.
Ticketing information
The Trust is awaiting information about ticketing arrangements for the trip to Selhurst Park.
Getting to Selhurst Park
By car
Exit the M25 at Junction 7 and follow the signs for the A23 towards Croydon. At Purley, veer left onto the A23 at the junction with A235. Head through Croydon and straight over several roundabouts until you reach Thornton Heath – where there is a roundabout at the Horseshoe pub. Go straight over into Brigstock Road (the B266) and pass Thornton Heath station on your left. Head right onto the High Street and, at the next mini roundabout, turn left into Whitehorse Lane. Selhurst Park will come into view on your right. Fulham fans should note that there is no parking available at the stadium, although you have been able to park for three hours at the nearby Sainsbury’s car park in the past.
By train
Selhurst Park is around fifteen minutes’ walk from Selhurst, Thornton Heath and Norwood Junction railway stations.
Away pubs
The two traditional pre and post-match pubs for Fulham fans at Crystal Palace are The Prince George (2 High Street, Thornton Heath, CR7 8LE) – which is about a ten minute walk from the away end – and The Railway Telegraph (19 Brigstock Road, Thornton Heath, CR7 7JJ), which is about fifteen minutes away on foot.
Alternatively, alcohol is available in the ground including Carlsberg (£4.50), Somersby (£4.50) and wine (£4.50).
