Ticket News York City Away - 16th Sept

[Bratislava Blue]

The York fixture falls on my birthday. The day before is a public holiday in Slovakia. So I'm using the reasons to fly over and do both the York game and the Maidenhead game on the Tuesday. My 5 year old will be going to his first Blues match at York. I just hope it won't be his last...

UTB!️

Gutted not to be able to do York on this occasion, though I think it's a good time to be playing them!

Come to think of it, when do you think Halifax will tell us, Still saying 3-00 k/o on both our and their Football sites

Just rang Halifax they said details will be confirmed tomorrow they are still making arrangements(!) - couldn’t get any more info from him.

Air b n b booked for York.

Bit gutted as the original add said parking included but has now been changed to say local paid parking. Parking for 2 days in York will be extortionate.

I looked at the train prices and they were crazy.

Guess I'm going to have to drive to a town or station a mile or 2 out and then go just a couple of stops.

The hotel prices that weekend in York are amazingly high. Didn't put me off doing the trip. However it has made me appreciate the more reasonable hotel prices that I've been used to paying the last 20 years whilst living abroad.

RIP OFF BRITAIN!

There's a Toby Carvery next door to a Travel Lodge a couple of miles easy travel from the ground. You turn off the A64 en route to Monks Cross retail park, & it's about a mile from A64. I'm presuming that Travel Lodge is somewhat cheaper then central York accommodations?.

Do what a couple of us are doing - stay in Leeds and catch the train into York. Hotel prices far cheaper, around a tenner return in the train Leeds to York, so you can still do a few York pubs pre and post match then have a couple in another great Yorkshire City after.

There was a Travel inn on the A64 with a fish and chip shop next to it.

Visited York on Monday and St George’s Catholic Primary School 10 min walk from City Centre have all day parking for £4. They also allow overnight parking too. You simply pop your reg onto an envelope next to their reception and put some coins in and then you’re sorted. It’s only a small car park but well worth looking into.

You can only park when the school is closed but is very convenient.

Similar to what I did last year with the Premier Inn in Bradford and several glorious pints of TT's Landlord at the wonderful Fighting C*ck (old school boozer). The PI is very close to the station too.

Managed to find a car park near the air b n b that charges £17 for a 48 hour stay.

The car will be used. Not paying £165 for train. Total p ss take.

Halifax away still showing as 3pm on the Saturday.
They have known about the clash with the rugby fixtures for ages. Anyone know why we are not being told about new time or even date for this game?

I think it would have to be another day. Even a 12.30 kick off doesn’t leave much time to turn round a stadium and set up the pitch for rugby in time for a 6pm start

I know this thread is York City away but re the Halifax game...

I have just phoned Halifax Town - very friendly chap who told me they are finalising arrangements for the 9th and will make an announcement later this afternoon when all is agreed. So watch this space.

There was a Travel inn on the A64 with a fish and chip shop next to it.

Used to be one of best fish chips in England been many times but not for around last 7 years. Also stayed in that Travel lodge too.
