planning in advance on this one but what are peoples plans who are coming up on the train?

I'll meet you all at New Street the off for a few beers  8)

I doubt Ralphy will be going this time!

He'd probably end up in Poland !!

I'm staying over in Brum for the weekend and my hotel is on New Street, so beers at early doors is good with me 8)

Yeah, everyone's going. Get on it.

It's looking a bit expensive for me to go from London, so I might have to give it a miss. Especially with Brentford and Norwich coming up in October :(

I don't think I'll bother.

One of my favourite away games to just go to and watch the football, as opposed to going and getting cnut'd.

I shall be there.

Snap, although we haven't actually booked the hotel oops!  I'm relying on Fred to get me back by train, seeing as he's one of the only ones I know getting a train back!

Anyone know what the parkings like around the ground.....I'll be travelling through Walsall that day and thought I might pop in  :)

I managed to park at the ground for about 4 quid last time.

retail park about 5-10 mins walk does the job

Yep, there's even a car park just for away supporters if I remember correctly - where they stick the Barnes coaches

I wouldn't like to park at any ground.

I'd spend the game worrying about the ball flying out the stadium and onto/into my car.

Who would be liable for that kind of damage?

Could I keep the ball if it was inside my car?

Bit off topic, but i've just booked a return to Carlisle from Euston for £28 for the game in november if anyone is thinking about going from the london area.

I can get to Carlisle and back for £18.50 with my railcard! Very tempting! Thanks for the info sutton!

Thanks all. I just had a look at the area around the Bescott and see that Bescott Crescent loops around the stadium and surrounding area, so should be OK for parking i.e. I can drive around in many circles looking for a space  :D

I can't remember the name but if you get there in good time, you can park for free at the pub and walk....

Last couple of times parked in the away parking and went in the suppoters club. All seemed easy, couple of beers follwed by at least a point. Going for the same this time.  :nod:

didn't we lose 2-1 last time?

Sorry axs, last couple of times I went (missed the last one and take full resposibility for the defeat !)  :cry:

One before that was good, 2-2 and a good day out.

Hmmm might get the train up to this one. Does anyone know how much it is? Can't be bothered to look.

it's one of my favourite to get wrecked at!! :)

last time i went i met up with you and we went and watched the England game followed by keebabs.

happy days

I remember that game, it was an early kick off. I drove up.

My next trip to Walsall wasn't as successful.

you should try and make this one dude. it'll be a good laugh

I'm going in a limo to this.

Working till 1pm mate. Might drive up, not sure.

you'd be there by 2 if you put your toe down.

do it

You'll make it easily Ralphy*

*assuming you don't intend a fly/taxi this time.

Quicker still if you fly - are there any airports nearby?

The best and quickest way is if you split the ticket at Cheltenham. Swindon to Cheltenham is £7, and you can halve that with a group saver. Cheltenham to Walsall is £18 return (cant get a group saver on that bit, boooo).

Swindon to Walsall is £34.30. So definately worth splitting the ticket.

I split my ticket at Cheltenham and paid £39 for two people. That's going up Friday and coming back on Sunday though.

Is the match tiks on sale yet Sam...or is it pay on the day?

Your a good man.

I'm probably behind the times, but actually found something good on the adver site, looks pretty handy if you dont know where you are going.

What time train is everyone getting ?

Silly to buy them in advance, after paying the booking and delievering fees from Walsall, it comes about the same price.
Why didn't they send a bunch to our ticket office.

3 of us driving down from Manchester.

Last time I went we won 2-0 Lukas and Christian Roberts showed them how to play ball.

I also remember singing "You should of gone Christmas shopping!!" which got a mention on BBC's chants of the week!!

"It's just like watching Brazil".

Ace match and away day.

PS "You should have gone Christmas shopping!!"

Nah, I'm pretty sure most Town fans were singing "of" ;)

You can't correct an already correct quote TT :)
