Game on Saturday
Alright Chaps
As there are no Championship games on Saturday, myself and a couple of northenders are thinking of jumping on the train to come and watch you boys. I'd be grateful for your help with a couple of (o.k., a few) questions:
Can we pay on the gate (if not when ticket office open 'til)?
Is the Crown the best place for a pint before the game?
Is it close to the train station?
Is it close to the ground?!!
Any help much appreciated - cheers

Re: Game on Saturday
I get the train sometimes. It can take over 2 hours from liverpool if you dont get good connecting times.
The Preston to Accrington train ride is no more than 20/25 minutes and is generally an empty train.
The walk to the ground from Accrington station is no more than 15 minutes.
I wouldnt bother with a taxi as their are shops/pubs on the way for refreshment.
