Match Six – Ipswich 2 – Millwall 0
Town got their second win of the season and the match was again lit up, by a sparkling display from the eighteen-year-old Teddy Bishop. He combined well with McGoldrick and their joint persistence made the first goal.
Walking to the ground from the station is easy at Ipswich, especially as you can see the ground virtually all the way and there are several maps. But surely those near the ground, should show the layout of the stadium to ease the walks of supporters and visitors.
History But No Stand Information
But at least Ipswich has got maps, which is more that can be said for most large cities and towns.
Millwall have a bad reputation for fan behaviour, but on the way home, I was sat with three fans and they were just phlegmatic about their teams performance.
The police told me, that they’d just had a nice trip to the country.
Art At Spitalfields
It is always good to walk through Spitalfields to get to Liverpool Street station.
The goat has been there for some time, but it’s the first time I’ve looked at Cecil Balmond‘s work!
More Step Free Access On The Overground
Looking at the London Overground map for 2026, there appear to be additional stations marked for step-free access.
Blackhorse Road – Plans are detailed here. They may be already completed!
Brockley – Improvements in the near future are detailed here.
Honor Oak Park – Improvements in the near future are detailed here.
New Cross – Improvements in the near future are detailed here.
New Cross Gate – This station would appear to be being rebuilt.
South Tottenham – Plans are detailed here in the Haringey Independent.
Watford Junction – I suspect that as everything seems to be happening at Watford Junction, full disabled access will be achieved by 2026.
Whitechapel – This will happen before 2020, as Crossrail will bring step free access between all lines here.
It does seem that all of these schemes seem to be following what appears to be Transport for London’s policy of improving the London Overground on a step-by-step basis as funding allows.
I suppose that with the Overground, putting in lifts and ramps is a lot easier, as the stations except for a few are totally above ground.
