Transport alert

Standard Saturday

Nothing unusual in the London diary for this date. Book advance rail tickets 12 weeks out and check the operator's works page the Monday before.

Ground note

The Hive is shared with Barnet's academy and other sports, so signage to the away turnstile can be easy to miss on first visit.

Ground note

Being deep in the suburbs, there is little matchday atmosphere outside the ground itself.
