Derby-Dave Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 For those thinking about going i booked my train tickets last nite for a great price of £19 return. Yes you have to nominate a precise time of travel & pay for 2 singles instead of a return but i thought i'd let others know of the savings as normally its over £57. These are all adult prices so children will be even cheaper!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorfolkRam Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 When do tickets go on sale for this relatively cheap event for myself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EastKentRam Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Looking forward to this, one of the best away trips of the season imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dcfcdavecov Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Norwich away would be alright if the road wasn't an endless single carriageway and it wasn't an accident blackspot (well it is whenever i'm on it) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terrible road though. They should make it into a dual carriage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually feel sorry for you lol Think it was about 5 years ago, twas a night game. Driving back and some fecker had turned his lorry over. Stuck for about 2 hours going nowhere. Easter Monday will have a load of caravans on it aswell.... still going though - no work for once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorfolkRam Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Caravans will be a nightmare. Norfolk roads are terrible and the a52 from grantham my way isn't much better. Unfortunately there's no easy way out of Norfolk unless you head south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorfolkRam Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Yeah come out of grantham past the barracks and back onto the a52. Follow that to donington and on to the a17 to Sutton bridge and then kings lynn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derby-Dave Posted March 1, 2011 Author Share Posted March 1, 2011 Due to it being on a bank holiday is 1 reason i'm going via train. The other is i'm going on the sunday to have a nite out, therefore i can start my drinking early whilst not having to worry about traffic jams or drink driving etc. I can't use a friends & family card as no-one is under 16 who i'm going with. I'm also over 25 so can't have a young adult card either. Oh well i was very happy with the price so can't complain plus its a new ground for me!!!

zakbishop Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 Try This M1 A14 A11 The only bit that's not motorway or dual carriageway is about 10 miles around Elveden/Thetford 2 3/4 hours on a normal day (but probably not on a bank holiday!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorfolkRam Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 That would be a nightmare to get through on bank holiday. I heard they might bypass it soon though which would be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
