Information for fans travelling to Stamford Bridge on Tuesday - Tottenham Hotspur
Description

Kick-off at Stamford Bridge is set for 8.15pm, with gates opening at 6.45pm.

Our hosts have written a useful guide for away fans which can be found here.

Supporters are also reminded that the best way to receive matchday information – including real-time travel updates and advice – is by following the Spurs Matchday Info channel on WhatsApp. Simply click here or search for ‘Spurs Matchday Info’ in your WhatsApp Updates section.

Getting to Stamford Bridge

There is currently expected to be a tube strike from midday on matchday through until the same time the following day. Everyone should therefore plan their journey in advance, which you can do with the help of TfL’s journey planner.

The London Overground is not due to be impacted by the strike, other than being busier than normal. On the Mildmay line between Stratford and Clapham Junction, Imperial Wharf and West Brompton stations are each within a 15-minute walk from the ground.

The Elizabeth Line should also remain unaffected with trains running through Paddington from where supporters can get buses into West London.

If a limited service is running on the District line then the closest tube station is Fulham Broadway which is accessible and only a five-minute walk to the stadium. We’d advise avoiding this route unless the strike is called off completely as the route is likely to suffer from severe delays and significant crowds if a limited service is running.

Those able to get the Elizabeth Line to Paddington can then board the 27 bus to Hammersmith followed by the 211 bus which takes you to within five minutes’ walk of the stadium. The 211 bus runs along a route from Hammersmith Bus Station to Battersea Power Station.

Supporters are strongly advised against driving to Stamford Bridge. Parking in the surrounding area is very limited and often restricted to residents only.

There’s an accessible drop-off and pick-up point situated by the away entrance on Fulham Road by Stamford Gate but supporters should be aware that Fulham Road is closed up to 1.5 hours prior to the match and may take around an hour to re-open post-game.

Other ways to get to the stadium

River boats run on the Thames with the closest pier to Stamford Bridge at Chelsea Harbour which is a 15-minute walk to the stadium. The boat schedule can be checked here.

Those wishing to cycle should be aware that bike storage is available at Stamford Gate. Supporters using rented e-bikes should be prepared for docking stations very near the ground to be full especially close to kick-off.

Entering the stadium

The away section at Stamford Bridge is situated in the lower tier of the Shed End and the away turnstiles are in the south-west corner of stadium. To avoid delays in entering the ground we would recommend arriving no later than 30 minutes prior to kick-off.

On arrival, fans should expect a pre-entry ticket check and a body and bag search before entry.

Supporters aged under 16 will not be permitted without an accompanying adult (18+).

Ticket office

Anyone with ticket issues in advance of matchday should contact ticket.office@tottenhamhotspur.com for assistance.

Supporters needing ticket assistance on matchday should go, with ID, to the main Ticket Office, which is situated in the Shed End (south stand) between the Megastore and Frankie's Sports Bar.

Programmes

The official matchday programme is priced at £4 and is for sale at programme kiosks located around the stadium and the Megastore.

Bag policy

No bags larger than A4 size (30cm x 20cm x 10cm) will be permitted into the stadium and there are no bag storage facilities. Anyone requiring a larger bag for medical reasons can apply for a medical exemption certificate via Chelsea here.

Accessibility

An access guide for disabled supporters can be found here.

Supporters needing to use the accessible toilets at Stamford Bridge will need a RADAR key. If you don’t have your own, speak to a steward to gain access. Stewards can also grant access to the Changing Places facility on request. Designated access stewards will be wearing either a purple or a pink and blue bib.

For any additional support on the day speak to one of our visiting, or Chelsea’s designated, accessibility stewards.

Visiting supporters’ pub

Chelsea have advised that the closest pubs for away supporters are The Earls Court Tavern, The Courtfield and The Prince of Teck – all of which are situated close to Earl’s Court Station which is approximately a 30-minute walk from the ground.

Refreshments

A full range of refreshments, including alcohol, will be available for purchase at the kiosks on the concourse.

Supporters are reminded that Stamford Bridge is a cashless stadium.

Flags and banners

There is only a limited amount of space to display banners and flags inside the stadium so they must be no larger than 80cm in depth and 250cm in width.

Supporters are also reminded of the Club’s own Flags and Banners Policy which is in effect at away matches.

Spurs Respects

We are proud of our superb and loyal support at home and away.

We recognise that most supporters want to watch a football match and not listen to abusive or indecent language from the stands. Discriminatory or violent behaviour, including racist, homophobic, sexist or anti-disability shouting, chanting or actions, is unacceptable.

We should like to remind supporters that the Crown Prosecution Service states that the term 'rent boy' is a homophobic slur and a hate crime. The CPS will take criminal action against supporters using the term, which could also result in the Football Association sanctioning the Club.

If you witness any discriminatory or anti-social behaviour at this match, please report it to the police or a steward. You can also text 88777 or 07894937793 with the stand, row, seat number, description of the offender and a brief description of the incident.

Alternatively, if you would like to report something after the match, you can email reporthate@chelseafc.com or call 0207 386 3355.

The Club reserves the right to indefinitely ban supporters found guilty of using discriminatory language or violent behaviour.

Unauthorised use of tickets

Supporters are reminded that the unauthorised reselling or passing on of tickets is strictly prohibited. In line with the Club's Sanctions and Banning Policy, supporters found to have purchased tickets and subsequently sold or passed them on to other supporters, or offered them for sale, will be subject to sanctions.

Supporters unable to attend

Supporters unable to attend the match should contact the Ticket Office as soon as possible. The Club will make best endeavours to reallocate tickets to other eligible supporters and issue refunds upon receipt of originally issued tickets.

Holdt on her goalscoring campaign: ‘To help the team, I’ve enjoyed it’

Holdt on her goalscoring campaign: ‘To help the team, I’ve enjoyed it’ - Tottenham Hotspur
Description

The Denmark international kick started our comeback with a thumping effort from inside the box, cancelling our Madison Haley’s opener for the hosts, before Toko Koga’s stunning strike from distance in stoppage time earned us victory on the final day of the season.

Already shortlisted for the WSL Player of the Season award, Oli stacked her name even further for the prize as that strike at Amex Stadium took her goal tally to 10 in all competitions, eight in the league, to finish as the club’s outright top goalscorer.

Completing her first full season in England – and in Lilywhite – our number 11 looks back on her season with ‘enjoyment’ and is delighted to help the team with her goal contributions this term.

“It's been a good first full season,” she told us, speaking after the game at Brighton. “I've enjoyed playing football and I think when I enjoy playing football, that's also when I play the best football. So, to be able to help the team with goals and assist, in tough games like this. It's been really nice and I've enjoyed it.”

When asked to reflect on our season finale win, she added: “Unreal. I think it sums up our season a little bit, we keep fighting until the end. We're behind and probably not played the best game this season, but we managed to get three points away against Brighton, which has shown the last couple of months that they're really a tough team. Toko, she has a great and big, big future in front of her.”

While the victory brought the curtain down on a record-breaking campaign – finishing on a club record 36 points in the WSL – Oli feels it will be just as important for the start of the next campaign.

“Martin [Ho] said before the game, ‘people are going to remember how you start the season and how you end the season’. So, to end the season with a win, and I know it's still a whole pre-season, a long time until the new season starts again, but to go and end the season with a big win like that, it's really important for momentum.”

Koga your Player of the Match after winning goal at Brighton - Tottenham Hotspur
Description

The young defender, who was making her 19th appearance in the competition this term, has been a standout performer in her first season in England and was rewarded for her fine performances this season by netting the winning goal in our WSL season finale.

An arrival from Feyenoord in the summer of 2025, the Japan international has been a composed figure in our backline throughout the campaign but, in the second minute of stoppage time, she showcased that in the forward areas.

Receiving the ball from Sophie Baggaley’s clearance, around 35 yards out, Toko took one touch and despite losing her footing slightly as she struck the ball, she lifted it over the hosts’ shot stopper and backline and into empty net.

That sparked jubilant scenes in our dugout as the 20-year-old ran over to embrace a hug with Head Coach Martin Ho followed by the rest of the coaching staff and her team-mates, with that goal ensuring we ended a record-breaking season with an important win on the road.

It also saw us maintained our unbeaten record on the final day of the WSL season, remaining the only team in the competition to have never lost a season finale in six attempts.

Winning the award for the second time this campaign, having won the prize on the opening day of the season, Toko took 56 per cent of the vote, with Signe Gaupset (17 per cent) and Olivia Holdt (10 per cent) her closest contenders.

Koga on her late winner at Brighton: “My best goal ever” - Tottenham Hotspur
Description

Arriving in north London as an 19-year-old, now 20, the young defender made 19 appearances in the league in total, missing just three games, with two of those coming during her participation with Japan in the Asian Cup, and Head Coach Martin Ho said ‘she's performed at such a high level for a young player' after she scored the winning goal in our WSL season finale on the south coast.

Putting in another excellent performance in the backline at Amex Stadium, the Japan international collected the ball from Sophie Baggaley’s attempted clearance and spotting the Seagulls’ goalkeeper off her line, she lifted a superb shot over everyone and into the empty net.

Named as our Adults Supporters' Player of the Season, Toko ran straight to the dugout to embrace Martin, the coaching staff and all her team-mates before receiving a chorus of applause from our supporters at the end of the game.

So, how did Toko sum up that goal? “It's the best goal ever,” she told us after the match, when speaking to SPURSPLAY with Ella Morris before describing it as ‘the best game she has ever played in.”

“She's been fantastic,” Ella added, when asked about Toko’s impact this season. “She's an amazing addition in the changing room. She brings so much laughter off the pitch but on the pitch her quality is unbelievable.

“The sky's the limit for Toko. I can't rave enough about her on the ball. I love playing alongside her. She's brilliant, so I'm so excited to see what she's going to go on and achieve.”

We had to fight back from one goal down to overcome an in-form Brighton side, after Madison Haley fired the hosts into the lead early in the second half, but Olivia Holdt netted her 10th goal of the season to start the comeback before Toko’s late winner ensured we ended our record-breaking campaign with another three points.

“It's a historic season, we wanted to end it even more positively,” the full-back told us, reflecting on the game. “So, to get the win against a really good team, in a good stadium with a good atmosphere is buzzing. I think the girls are going to be really happy today.

“It was a bit hectic, it was very transitional, so to have gone a goal down, I think the girls did really well to claw back the two goals and Toko here with a fantastic finish to give us a win.”

‘They speak to me on my level’ | Inside Foundation’s mental health support for young people

‘They speak to me on my level’ | Inside Foundation’s mental health support for young people - Tottenham Hotspur
Description

As part of Mental Health Awareness Week (11–17 May), Spurs fan Anaiah, 17, from Barnet, shared how the Foundation’s delivery of the Advantage Mentoring Talking Tactics programme has altered the course of his life for the better.

One in four young people aged 16-24 in England experience a common mental health condition such as anxiety or depression – equating to 7,400 people just in the London Borough of Haringey, where Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is located.

The Foundation makes a positive impact through charity partnerships, community-based programmes and strategic initiatives.

Talking Tactics is a free six-month programme of direct, one-to-one mentorship aimed at boosting confidence and developing lifelong skills. Referrals can be made by trusted adults such as parents, carers or teachers, as well as healthcare professionals supporting young people who may be waiting to access other mental health services. An NHS screening process helps identify whether a young person’s needs are suitable for the programme.

Anaiah has benefited from mentoring provided by Foundation mental health lead Jadon Anderson and explained what made Jadon’s approach so effective.

“When I started the programme, I had low confidence and didn’t like going to college. Another service like this I’d tried, I didn’t really feel a connection and I was kind of scared to talk to them," he said.

“With Jadon, we can talk about things other than what’s going wrong, like my basketball, my music… this environment feels safer to open up.

“Jadon speaks to me on my level rather than as if I’m a kid needing help. We’ve talked about how I can improve my confidence, resilience and decision-making.

“I wanted to stop going to college, but now I’m more focused and dedicated, attending two days a week, and working three to four days a week. I’ve also got a music video releasing soon.

“The mentoring’s helped me juggle all these things without feeling stressed and I’d say my mental health’s a lot better. I don’t feel low or depressed. I’m more joyful now and a lot of people see me as bubblier.”

Mentoring sessions take place across the Stadium and Percy House, the Foundation headquarters on Tottenham High Road.

Jadon said: “Being connected to Spurs really resonates with young people and being in the heart of the local community definitely helps bring some comfort.

“Working with Anaiah has been a privilege. It just shows what some consistent support, guidance and reassurance can do. Anaiah was always a smart and capable young man, but perhaps previously found himself in the wrong places at the wrong times – and I think that’s a similar story for many young people.

“It’s not about making young people take certain decisions. It’s about giving them the platform to understand their options and helping boost their confidence to move forward positively.”

Premier League Inspires

Foundation staff also provide mentoring in local schools to empower students at risk of not meeting their potential, as part of their delivery of the Premier League Inspires programme funded through the Premier League Foundation.

A group of five girls from Mulberry Academy Woodside, on White Hart Lane, recently represented the Foundation at the national Premier League Inspires Challenge, where young people were tasked with designing a social action project to support the mental wellbeing of their peers.

The Foundation group came up with a project focused on positive body image in the age of social media and were recognised as joint winners.

MindBall

Ahead of Mental Health Awareness Week, participants in the Foundation’s Next Generation football sessions for local girls aged 12-17 were invited to a special event at the Training Centre.

It combined a regular session with a MindBall workshop run by none other than our defender Molly Bartrip.

Molly offers mindset and mental health workshops for young people in sport based on her own experience of overcoming mental challenges.

Movember Ahead of the Game

Foundation coaches continue to deliver the Movember Ahead of the Game programme, run in partnership with Rugby League Cares, across local schools.

The programme uses sport-based interactive workshops to teach an understanding of mental health and how to build mental fitness.

Participants develop resilience and their ability to overcome challenges in sport and life.

Play-off final beckons for duo, Moore bows out with assist - Tottenham Hotspur
Description

Salford’s semi-final second leg against Grimsby Town ended 2-2 after extra time, with the hosts progressing 4-3 on aggregate.

Ex-Spur Kallum Cesay bagged a 117th-minute equaliser on the night for Salford to clinch their place in the final, with defender Alfie coming on in the closing moments of extra time to help see the game out.

Central midfielder Tyrese wasn’t involved for Notts County as they edged past Chesterfield with a goalless draw that sent them through 1-0 on aggregate.

If selected, Alfie and Tyrese could now find themselves on opposite sides when Salford meet Notts County at Wembley on Monday week with a place in the third tier up for grabs.

Elsewhere, Mikey Moore signed off from his season-long loan at Rangers by providing the assist for their opening goal in a 5-2 victory at Falkirk on Saturday.

The attacking midfielder set up Youssef Chermiti inside two minutes for the first of his three goals as Danny Rohl’s men ended a four-game losing streak to finish the season on a winning note. Mikey played 80 minutes before being withdrawn on what was his 47th appearance of the campaign. He has scored seven goals for the Ibrox side over the course of 2025/26.

Luka Vuskovic was also in action on Saturday as his Hamburg side rounded off their German Bundesliga campaign with a 1-1 draw at Bayer Leverkusen. Luka played the full game, finishing the season with 30 appearances and six goals to his name.
