Away day guide: Wycombe Wanderers
Fulham will look to bounce back from Saturday’s last-gasp defeat at Newcastle United when they head to Wycombe Wanderers for our fourth-round Carabao Cup tie at Wycombe Wanderers.
All away tickets have been sold for this fixture.
GETTING TO ADAMS PARK
CLUB COACHES
The official Fulham coaches will leave Craven Cottage and Motspur Park at 4.30pm.
BY CAR
On matchdays, there is significant traffic around Adams Park so drivers are advised to leave plenty of time to complete their journey. Adams Park is clearly signposted from the M40. Leave the M40 at Junction 4 and take the A4010 (John Hall Way, signposted Aylesbury). Cross over three small roundabouts into New Road continuing down the hill to two mini roundabouts at the bottom. Turn sharp left at the first into Lane End Road and continue to the next mini roundabout at which turn right into Hillbottom Road. Adams Park is situated at the very end of the road.
CAR PARKING
A limited number of car parking spaces are available at in the UpperOver parking complex at Adams Park or at nearby Millbrook School priced at £10. Tickets must be booked in advance via Wycombe Wanderers’ official website and your vehicle must be parked at least an hour before kick off. You can also park in some of the industrial units along Hillbottom/Lane End Road for the same price. This might be a better option as the official car park gets very congested and there are usually serious delays in leaving after full time. There is some street parking available, but this is subject to restrictions on matchdays, and traffic wardens will be in operation.
BY RAIL
Supporters can reach High Wycombe station from London Marylebone. The ground is around 2.8 miles from the station and taxis are available from outside the station.
BY BUS
The best way to reach Adams Park from High Wycombe is via the Carousel football special bus service, which is priced at £5. You can check the timetable via the Carousel website and track the buses via the official bus company app. The Wycombe Wanderers website suggests that buses will leave Wycombe Railway Station at 18:30 and return from Adams Park at 22:15. The return journey from the ground will take place ten minutes after the final whistle, but can be very crowded.
AWAY PUBS
Many Fulham supporters will opt for the large away fans’ marquee that will be open in the car park tomorrow night and there is a mobile catering unit, selling hot food, drinks and pies located nearby.
There are not many pubs located near the ground, due to it being on an industrial estate. The exception is The Hour Glass in Sands (144 Chapel Lane, High Wycombe HP12 4BY), which is about fifteen minutes walk from the ground, sells real ale and has previously welcomed away fans.
Your other best bets are located in Wycombe itself. The Falcon, a popular Wetherspoon’s pub in the town centre, has catered for Fulham fans on a number of previous visits (9 Cornmarket, High Wycombe HP11 2AX).
The nearby O’Neills offers a big screen with the usual food and drink fare (Paul’s Row, High Wycombe, HP11 2HQ), whilst The Flint Cottage (previously known as The Bootlegger, Amersham Hill, High Wycombe, HP13 6NQ) is a superb sports pub closer to the station.
