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
 

Yes you can pay on the gate
would not like to say the crown is the best pub
i would say its abought a mile to the train station
but they is buses hope you enjoy

There's decent Sam Smith's at £1.47 a pint at the Greyhound a little further out of town.

Mr Google says it's a mile:

Feels like more walking up that b****y hill though.

Re: Game on Saturday
 

And if your after a cheap chain pub pint there is The Calder on blackburn road, you'll pass it on your way from the rail station as you head towards town

Re: Game on Saturday
 

As many fans as possible would be appreciated lads :)

Cheers guys - all noted.

Re: Game on Saturday
 

With 3 of them sharing probably cheaper and a lot easier to get a taxi from the station :)

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.

Re: Game on Saturday
 

yeh it is a nightmare from Lime Street.

But jump on the Trans Pennine express to York or Leeds (from Preston) and you will be Accrington in about 20 mins :)





On another bright note, ive pursuaded a load of Oldham fans to come to the Barnet cup game, so hopefully will have a few more down then aswell :)
