I've seen the bar people at the merlin say kiddies have to stay outside. I think there might be a sign on the door. It's probably riskable though.

If you don't want the super packed county then town's probably your best bet. The savoy or the groves maybe. It's not too far to wander in to the ground.

Unless I'm forgetting somewhere obvious.

I said they have allowed children in the past on match days - there were some at forest and they didn't get kicked out, but I know they have been more strict in the past. Give it a whirl, can always move if needs be.

Oh right, so the comedy value of watching her run rings around you and putting you in your place is postponed for now then.  :D

Only joking, it's a shame fella.
