Ground note · unverified

Craven Cottage is one of the smallest, most old-fashioned grounds in the top flight — some away views have restricted sightlines around the corner sections.

Ground note · unverified

Putney Bridge station gets very congested after full time; the riverside walk towards Hammersmith can be a useful alternative.
