50mph limits basically the whole way up and the away end is pretty pokeybobby1413 wrote:What horrible journey.... and what pokey away cage?Sutekh wrote:Horrible journey up the M1, pokey away cage we get stuck in, another hopelessly awful away performance flattering to deceive. IN.
Ah, last time I drove up I went up about 8 hours early as I was staying overnight so just took it easy all the way up. Also don't remember the away end concourse that much - too pishedLWJ wrote:50mph limits basically the whole way up and the away end is pretty pokeybobby1413 wrote:What horrible journey.... and what pokey away cage?Sutekh wrote:Horrible journey up the M1, pokey away cage we get stuck in, another hopelessly awful away performance flattering to deceive.

Where you staying?Warfield North Stand wrote:Hotel Booked for night. Meeting Old Uni mates in town after. Hooters pre match. IN
I am staying at the Crown Plaza which is by the Opera House but that's only because I got it free with points I have built up through work. All the "Budget" hotels in the City Centre were either full or really expensive. There must be something going on in Nottingham that weekend.bobby1413 wrote:Where you staying?Warfield North Stand wrote:Hotel Booked for night. Meeting Old Uni mates in town after.

I looked at Travelodge last week which was £133 total for two nights - that's where I stayed last time
Went on to book it today and it's now at £190.
Thanks for the advice, I also found a lot of the hotels quite expensive.Warfield North Stand wrote:I am staying at the Crown Plaza which is by the Opera House but that's only because I got it free with points I have built up through work.

My 2 Uni mates got into Premier Inn Nottingham West. It's not in the Centre but on the Tram line apparently. Might be worth a try.
Last year I went to - Ye Olde Trip to Jerusalem, Brewhouse Yard, Nottingham NG1 6AD - not far from the ground, but far enough that it's not rammed. Full of character. I didn't have food, but I'm aware they do offer it.26-10-06 wrote:Anywhere decent for a cheap pint and food for this one? Driving in so something near the ground would be ideal!
