Can I pay at the turnstile?
What is the cheapest train to Newport?

 

[MK Shrimper]

No idea, but there's engineering works going on so there's no direct trains to Newport from Bristol.

 

[stickyboy]

[Yorkshire Blue]

What do you think of Justin Edinburgh?
Is it still the 1970s in Newport?

you can definitely pay on the day pal but if you pre-paid today its £2 cheaper. if I was you i'd get tickets for the bisley stand which is covered and theres a bar there, for a h/t beer. the cheaper option is the temporary seating behind the goal in the syntner end but you're open to the elements and the forecast isn't looking too good for this part of the country. As for the trains I don't know but their is a direct service from Paddington to Newport, but like someone has pointed out their maybe maintenance on the railway tomorrow? anyway have a safe journey down. We're a friendly lot down here unlike kardiff so i'm sure you'll enjoy your day out irrespective of the result

plenty of parking in side streets mate, but watch out for some with permit holders only, or you can park in the multi storey car park in Kingsway(town centre) and its a 5 minute walk over the pedestrian bridge which will take you directly to the away end

plenty of good pubs by the ground mate, the dodger, ivy bush, riverside or Clarence club are a stones throw away from the ground. alternatively if you are able to travel down by train?, theres a wetherspoons right opposite the station, and plenty of watering holes in the town centre

That's OK if you only want a number one...

Just to clarify, you're ok coming from London but I know some were stopping over in Bristol and that's when the problems arise.

Stuff the elements. I wanna cheer the mighty Shrimpers from behind the goal. It'll be a cracking atmosphere..we do love a sing-a-long

don't forget your wet weather gear then mate, it always rains down here, and felt sorry for the torquay fans behind the goal the other week who must have been absolutely soaked to the skin.
