Title: Exeter Next Saturday Post by: Arriba on Friday, July 27, 2007, 12:57:45 on a saturday during the school holidays you have no chance of doing it in two hours.
frankly its a nightmare getting to devon during this time,can take up to 5-6 hours. i go down regularly this time of year and would strongly advise going down the a303 instead of the m4-m5 Title: Exeter Next Saturday Post by: herthab on Friday, July 27, 2007, 13:00:53 I'll be there.

That's if my heap of shit is still running :( Title: Exeter Next Saturday Post by: Arriba on Friday, July 27, 2007, 13:02:56 those going m4-m5 expect to queue from the m4-m5 link then stop start all the way down to devon.its fucking terrible this time of year.the 303 gets really busy too but you can always shoot of on minorish roads if its too congested.either way i'd allow plenty of time to get down there
Title: Exeter Next Saturday Post by: flammableBen on Friday, July 27, 2007, 13:21:42 Yeah, Traffic will be horrid. Training it is the only way to go.
Title: Exeter Next Saturday Post by: herthab on Friday, July 27, 2007, 13:30:21 A303's pretty good now, lots of dual carriageway.
It'll take me about 40 mins from here. Title: Exeter Next Saturday Post by: Samdy Gray on Friday, July 27, 2007, 13:34:41 Anyone staying in Devon for the weekend?
Title: Exeter Next Saturday Post by: Luci on Friday, July 27, 2007, 13:35:41 Nah were just going down for the day mate. Birdys driving (providing she hasn't changed her mind)..

Birdys driving (providing she hasn't changed her mind).. She's on her way to mine at the moment, but I think she was hoping to get 1 or 2 others to split petrol costs. She might be on here later, (provided she's got my new laptop working with internet). :mrgreen: Title: Exeter Next Saturday Post by: Luci on Friday, July 27, 2007, 14:25:06 Quote from: "Sussex" Quote from: "STFCLady" Nah were just going down for the day mate.

Title: Exeter Next Saturday Post by: Rich Pullen on Friday, July 27, 2007, 16:23:50 I'm going - looking forward to it... and mouthing off at Basham :D
Title: Exeter Next Saturday Post by: flammableBen on Friday, July 27, 2007, 16:27:34 Don't know if I'm going yet.
Title: Exeter Next Saturday Post by: Fred Elliot on Friday, July 27, 2007, 16:34:23 Quote from: "flammableBen" Don't know if I'm going yet. Train Train Train !!!!! Title: Exeter Next Saturday Post by: magic8ball on Friday, July 27, 2007, 17:23:07 I'm going, it'll be a beautiful drive from Swansea.
Mind you, the last time I went to St. James Park a couple of seasons back, the away end consisted of about 8 concrete steps. I'd imagine we'll get somewhere nicer to go, unless they just throw us all in together.

We all prefer to stand, shirley? Title: Exeter Next Saturday Post by: flammableBen on Saturday, July 28, 2007, 02:24:34 The Exeter away end steps are one of my favourite away grounds in the country. I spent 2 years at uni living less than 100 metres from the stadium (Year 2: 20 metres. Year 3: 80 metres). I've got a bit of a soft spot for The Grecians. I never went to see them play as often as I should have, but I still look out for there results. I wonder what's happened to Steve Flack. He was a bit of a legend.

"The Boxer" joined Tiverton but left during last season - went to Dorchester... I think he's retired now. I've gone to Exeter quite a few times during my time in Devon - I prefer going to watch them than Argyle, they are an infuriating bunch. Title: Exeter Next Saturday Post by: Fred Elliot on Saturday, July 28, 2007, 18:57:01 So.....................who's going ?
And who's going by train ? Any of you out of towners are welcome to kip at my place if its an early start Title: Exeter Next Saturday Post by: Rich Pullen on Saturday, July 28, 2007, 19:01:55 Rich Pullen is going - From Plymouth.

Title: Exeter Next Saturday Post by: Fred Elliot on Saturday, July 28, 2007, 19:08:20 No Lisa coming back off her holiday Sunday morning now.....................so need to be here to deflect shit shit thats bound to come my way

I'd catch the train from Gloucester to Exeter.......but depends on funds as my car goes to Shitroen on Monday to sort out the flood damage Title: Exeter Next Saturday Post by: Fred Elliot on Saturday, July 28, 2007, 22:06:34 Quote from: "glos_robin" I might go as I can't see me following through on my threat of giving up on STFC just yet and I really need to get away from Gloucestershire for a few hours.
