    My original plan for getting home from the O2 has been scuppered so I was wondering if anybody knew the public transport situation. I remember FW muttering something about getting the tube to run late but I've heard precious little on that score since. Anybody know what is going to be runningat 3am on Saturday and what isn't? Now, I'm sure FW would never tell a porky but The TFL website doesn't mention any late running tubes......

    O2 sent me an E-mail out about travel home, and it gave all the details of the multitude of different vehicles that you could take, some were pre book only mind, I'll try and put the details up when I get home

    You have to pre-book a bus or boat..I've gone for the boat :)
    £12 each and from there I can get the night bus home. Hopefully well sozzled and happy after a good nights action.

    Have now pre booked parking at the venue - just hope we don't have to wait forever to exit the car parks with everyone leaving the same time after the main event!

    Don't envy some getting home - the O2 is pretty much in the middle of nowhere and can be a difficult venue to get home from at the best of times, let alone when the tubes aren't running.

    TBH stuey after being ringside & paying 500 to watch calzaghe = i said i wouldnt do again. all the empty seats around was a just a waste the atmosphere wasnt brill & when i watched it back on tele it was like i was watching a different fight so my thinking at the end was just a waste of money oh & a bust hand
