On a Barnes coach with me dad, leaving at 8.10 opposite the Rocket. £27.50 return, sorted.

Went with Barnes to the Cup final and it was a good laugh, bit of a sing song on the way down, and booze wasn't a problem. We didn't have to hide it or anything, the driver wasn't arsed.

Anyone know the name of the road the university is on, and approx time to arrive if i want a park.

I think i might regret going by car this time

Neither can I to be honest, especially seeing as Cardiff are playing at home on the same day. Probably will still go there for a few pints anyway.

Rhi · « **Reply #47 on:** August 7, 2006, 07:27:04 PM »

Anyone know roughly how long before the game the coaches arrive in Cardiff? Ta.

Rob K · « **Reply #48 on:** August 7, 2006, 07:34:42 PM »

Are they? Hmm, maybe will find somewhere else to drink then. Arriving late-ish Saturday night by car and driving back Sunday night.

Yes, they face Coventry at home so there will probably be quite a few fans around after the game.

You will be alright in the city arms, the Cardiff fans drink in the Ninnian and the Prince of Wales.

I expect a fair few might well be in the City Arms (Me and a mate will be). Plenty of pubs in the vicinity as well, so there'll be plenty of choice.

Inside will be fine, its outside that causes me to think about it.

shopkins5 · « **Reply #55 on:** August 7, 2006, 10:50:01 PM »

Knowing the area I think it will be fine mate, not stopping me venturing out.

And do not think of going to the Borough - it's pretty horrible...

In the event of a draw, would there be extra time or just pens? Wondering about when I can book a train back

lfc84 · « **Reply #59 on:** August 9, 2006, 05:56:02 PM »

the fa.com states if the scores are level after 90 mins there will be pens

Tuesday · « **Reply #64 on:** August 10, 2006, 11:31:15 AM »

Going down on Saturday after work. Finish at 4pm. Hopefully not much traffic and wanna be in Cardiff and the B n' B around 7pm'ish. Few beers round Cardiff to wet the whistle then hopefully a good night's kip for the game.....and more whistle-wetting.

I'll probably avoid the the C.C.F.C. pubs, CrownPaints wears colours.

Does anyone know how long it takes to walk from Cardiff train station to the actual stadium. What kind of direction is in it in.
Any help would be sound
Cheers

It's not that far way, a few minutes walk.
