By RailThe nearest Tube station is Fulham Broadway on the District Line, which is a few minutes’ walk from Stamford Bridge. Take a train to Earls Court and change for Wimbledon-bound trains. West Brompton and Imperial Wharf stations on the London Overground are approximately a 20 minute walk away.
By BusThere are two bus stops outside Stamford Bridge on the Fulham Road. You can get to the stadium using bus routes 14, 211 and 41.
StadiumThe nearest Tube station is Fulham Broadway, which is right next to the stadium. The nearest Overground station is West Brompton – from there, Stamford Bridge is a 15 minute walk. Once you get to Fulham Road, away supporters should head for the Shed End, toward the East Stand side of the ground.
As you along Fulham Road (towards Brompton Cemetery), there are several opportunities to access the stadium complex on the left-hand side. The access road at Stamford Gate leads directly to the corner of the stadium nearest the away turnstiles.
From here, you will pass the Millennium and Copthorne Hotels before reaching the stadium entrance.
Away fans sit inside of the Shed End lower and upper tiers (towards the East Stand side).
Food & RefreshmentsA number of restaurants and pubs are situated around 20-30 minutes’ walk from Stamford Bridge. Food and drink is also available inside the ground.
SAFETY ANNOUNCEMENTEverton Football Club does not condone the use of pyrotechnics whatsoever those found using them either home or away will be subject of action by the Club and the Police. Being convicted of using them could also result in a jail sentence that is how seriously the matter is being treated by courts across the country. As a Club we would also impose an indefinite ban on anyone caught using pyrotechnics. Apart from the risk of a ban or conviction the devices have a serious effect on others, particularly those with breathing difficulties and the disabled in wheelchairs who cannot easily get away from the smoke.
During the season 2015/16, we have noticed an increase of persistent group “bouncing”, culminating in beer being thrown in the air. This has happened on both home and away concourses and would stress has only involved a very small minority of fans.
This has resulted in both the Club and the Police receiving complaints from supporters who have become soaked in beer. As we are sure you will agree this is anti-social behaviour and people should not have to put up with this. As a consequence, both the Club, Merseyside Police and supporter’s groups have discussed how this should be addressed.
Firstly, both the Club and the Police want to make it clear that we want ALL our supporters to enjoy their day and we understand that this may include singing and an element of “bouncing” as a group.
However, a decision has been made that should home or away fans participate in the throwing of alcohol in any area of the stadium, they will be dealt with by Match Day Stewards with the full support of Merseyside Police Officers. This could culminate with an ejection from the ground or potentially an arrest, dependent on the specific circumstances.
This season, you will see more stewards and Police Officers on the concourse, who will provide early advice should a situation look like it is getting out of control.
Please continue to enjoy the match but we ask that you also consider other supporters and how they will be affected by your behavior and we ask for your support in this.
Thank you.
