Me and Marc have afternoon off work for a few beers in town before getting the train. Who else is going to this and what train you thinking of getting? I was going to get the train tickets in next few days. Need to make the most of this as the old bill have buggered up a good piss up to gills!

This'll be a top game i reckon, everyone playing for contracts and rovers will probably adopt us as local rivals properly now because they don't look like being in the same league as shitty anytime soon. Expect a bit of groundshare-based taunting from us too methinks.

I can't be bothered with this either. Tuesday night fighting isn't for me really.

Tickets on sell, it is all ticket - I believe our allocation is just the tent behind the goal

Looks as thought I will be going to this now.  Why I don't know  :D

Because you can be bothered?

I'm not going, save the money and the time off work.

Will go to this as it's so close. Dunno whether to drive or get the train though.

I'm the same! If I've got somebody to go with, I might drive over early, park up and head into the centre of Br*stol for a bit by bus

It a bloody hell of a place to get to, even though I live in Bristol it takes me well over a hour to get there.

I haven't done this stadium yet as always been away when the fixtures on.  I need to tick it off!

I've just realised where the stadium is. I spent all of last week on a placement on Gloucester rd, looks like I wasn't very far away. Think I'll drive and park somewhere residential nearby, rather than walk back to Montpelier or wherever.

Post by: Luci on Sunday, April 13, 2008, 16:01:14
Is there not parking at the stadium or any away pubs nearby?


Title: Rovers
Post by: DiV on Sunday, April 13, 2008, 16:07:51
there are plenty of side streets to park on, if you dare  :shock:

I did the other season, 10,000 odd people still found a place to park not too far away and car was fine...

There's an away pub, but you'll get battered with a baseball bat if you go in there.

You are not missing much. It's a an awful ground tbh. Much prefer going to Ashton Gate for Bristol away days.

still not decided how to get there either yet. thinking train but its the return times that could be a pain in the ass


Title: Rovers
Post by: The Therapist on Monday, April 14, 2008, 07:28:55
right i think im getting the 1631 from swindon to montpelier (arrive 1757). leave montpelier at 2204. should be fine!

if anyone fancies a beer in town or to a few on the train would be cool.

I think is it just the tent behind the goal - something like 1008

Hehe. He's back now, he's only been to one game since and that was Southend - not a good omen!
