From Heathrow you get straight on the (underground) Piccadilly line to Finsbury Park. Change to the Victoria line Northbound and get off at Seven Sisters. You can then either

a) walk for fifteen minutes (not reccomended)
b) get the overland train to White Hart Lane (two minute walk)

No parking in the immediate vicinity of the ground as there is a controlled parking zone for residents but if you do not mind parting with ten quid there are some schools and sports clubs that provide parking on match days.

The only pub that is away friendly is the Irish Club a couple of mins from WHL overground station.

Though, when you say Heathrow area, if you can easily get to a mainline station such as West Drayton, Feltham, Hayes, etc. etc. then it'll be far quicker.

I was "invited to leave" the last Oirish Club I was in for declining to put money into a collection for "the families". (it was some time ago, tbf).

Anyway, they'll all be 'away friendly' this time, won't they ?

You are probably correct. Can't see anyone objecting to Bolton fans in our boozers given the circumstances.

I'm working in Hayes but staying at a Heathrow Hotel so if I'm having a drink I could get a taxi back in Hayes quite easily. I'll have a mooch on thetrainline.com. Thanks Bobo

Yeah, Feltham will get you to Waterloo quickly, whereas West Drayton'll do for Paddington.
