directions to Salisbury

[brighton_rebel]

Anyone know how to get to Salisbury ground from the train station - all i can find out is that its 2 miles away, which will be fun with a hangover and 12 seconds sleep. Almost as much fun turning up to the Slough-Windsor game the other day!

ps my cousin Mark who comes to a lot of slough home games is a very lucky man - the hotel he had been staying in at Thailand was washed away, but thankfully he was on another island nursing a hangover.

Hi Warren I did think of you on Monday. I dont know if this helps but I rang Salisbury Football Club to get directions for you and he said the best way was to come out of the train station and head for the town towards Market Sq until you see a sign for the library, just past there is a Tesco about 10 to 15 yds which has a bus stop which operates Park and ride, you need to get on the bus until Old Serham (or something like that) and the walk to the stadium is about 10mins. Other than that Aidan and Phil will look out for you on the way and pick you up. If I can find our anything else more useful I will let you know. Really glad your cousin is ok.

Don't know what buses, if any, there are on New Years Day. One taxi company in Salisbury do the same rate 24 hours a day, inc bank holidays. It's 505050 (Salisbury code is 01722).

 

if you're turning up early enough, your best bet is to walk into the centre. Left out of the station, to the bottom of the hill and right into Fisherton Street, less than 5 minutes walk from there. There's a rank in the New Canal, one in Minster Street, and one outside Tesco in Castle Street. Or phone 01722 505050

 

There'll be a few of us drinking in the Market Inn in the Market Square from mid-day, then onto the George & Dragon in Castle Street (past Tesco) later on. We usually get a taxi from there to the ground so we're not paying to trundle round the one way system. Should be a couple of taxi's of us, so you're welcome to jump in.

Top man Dave, nice of you to offer BR. Whilst you on here, what chance, if any, of the game being called off?

 

And I'll ask the question ahead of Radders, is there anywhere around the ground a few of the lads could have a kickabout pre-match?

[brighton_rebel]

Cheers Sue for directions

...might take you up on you're kind offer Dave depending on when train gets in - do the pubs serve food or can i get something decent in the ground (ie not hamburgers and chips)

Technically, they weren't anonymous as they both put their names to the post! <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Just to let you know that I have just looked at the Wilts and Dorset Bus Company website for Buses tomorrow, and there are no services at all. Your best bet will be those taxi's (unless you want a nice long walk.

[Guest]

hi there brighton rebel and mile chaser i think that harvister chain of pubs would do you a red cow special meal or chiken or somthing named like that. i belive they to things like quorn and other delights and if you go between say 1300 qnd 1800 it should be a big saving. they do nice salod bowls there so if you can get there early enough youmay well be suprized. unfortunatly there are no buses as somebody else mentied not even to bournemouth, and only sunday buses in slough and a few other places.

 

cheers br
