tomtuck01 Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Oh, and what I will say Tom. You must be lucky where you live. As most places in Nottingham you need a ticket to get in, or to pay to get in. Well all these ****** towns and cities that you lot live in clearly need the extra income. A thriving city like mine has no such worries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gandy Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 Shame you didn't choose a different team to go and watch but different strokes and all that If I can get my hands on any other tickets, I'll go watch them for sure, but West Ham were my priority, I've followed them my whole life Really wouldn't mind seeing some lower league football too, like Leeds, Blackpool or Blackburn ..

I had some friends who went to Silks and they charged time and half... That happens in Perth all the time, but mostly after midnight and during peak hour events. Coming home from a night out can cost me anywhere between $15-$35 for a ten minute drive .. that's if you can even get a cab. Leeds, Blackburn and Blackpool lower league I see what I have done there. Probably won't go to anything lower than Championship, possibly League One .. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The train station is on the outskirts of the City Centre and the train station is also a 15/20 minute walk from The City Ground. If you go in the opposite direction, you'll walk into the City Centre(bout 3 minutes) and if you catch one of the buses that goes down near Trent Bridge, you'll be at The City Ground within no time.

But then it's generally what your cup of tea is. We have the expensive and ok big nightclubs and we also have the small bars/pubs/clubs as well. Taxis run all night and buses for where I live run all through the night just every hour or so. Not sure how often to other places in Nottingham, but I think it's regularly enough.

How many football matches did you want to get and see? Just the one? The international break for the top two divisions in England kicks in from the start of Feb for about 2 weeks.

The international break for the top two divisions in England kicks in from the start of Feb for about 2 weeks. I know, I timed it terribly. They were the only dates I could get off work before the end of the season. I'll watch as much football as I can, West Ham was my priority though. Wanted to see the Boleyn before (perhaps) we move to the Olympic Stadium. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nottingham Forest Posted January 1, 2013 Share Posted January 1, 2013 How are you planning your trip? There'll be a fair few League One and League Two teams playing in your visit if the weather is alright. There are quite a few lower league Manchester sides or teams in that area. So you could probably see a few games there. Depending on when the West Ham game is, there'll be a few lower league teams in London that'll be playing. Leyton Orient would be one of them.
