In answer to your question, a pub the London Branch has used for a few years is The Andover Arms ( although it's not really close to the ground, and you do need a map to get there from Goldhawk Road station! ) - www.theandoverarms.com

i'll be heading there, with my big lump of a mate so if anyone wants to say hello. shout up

Ok then......

Last seasons thread - Not much info for pubs

And..

From FGG
Nearly all pubs near to the ground are for home fans only. Audrey MacDonald a visiting Hartlepool fan informs me; 'After trying to no avail to find a pub near to the ground that would allow in away fans, the Police directed us to the Meadow Club which is the Notts County Supporters Club. The Club was okay but a bit short on bar staff'. Carl Fitzpatrick a visiting Coventry City fan informs me; 'Very near to the ground on the banks of the River Trent, we came across the Nottingham Rowing Club, which displayed a banner outside saying that away fans were welcome. They charged �1 entry and the beer was good and very reasonable, plus the Forest fans that we met inside were chatty and friendly.'

Simon Phillips recommends the Stratford Haven, just down the road from the Larwood & Voce, 'it has great beer and food, it bustles and is used by both home and away fans'. Whilst Tim Cooke a travelling Millwall fan has a different angle (so to speak); 'definitely one for the lads! Hooters (on the main road A6011, on the outskirts of the city centre, you can't miss it!) has very nice waitresses wearing just enough to cover things up, serves lovely beer, and great food. Take my advice, make a weekend of it, Nottingham is a top city!' Otherw*s*, alcohol is available inside the ground, including Fosters, John Smiths & Guinness.

If you are arriving by train and have a bit of time on your hands, then I would suggest that you check out the �Olde Trip To Jerusalem�. This historic pub dates back to the 12th century and some of the rooms are �cave like� having been carved out of the rock that Nottingham Castle is situated upon. Add real ale, food and a small beer garden, then it is certainly worth a visit. It is about a five minute walk away from the train station. As you come out of the station turn right. At the top of the road turn left and then take the second right into Castle Road. Just tucked away on the left is the pub.

There is also the Waterfront complex of bars (including a Wetherspoons outlet) which is a short walk from the train station. As you come out of the station turn right and cross over to the other side of the road (As you cross the bridge going over the canal you can see the complex). At the top of the road turn left and the Waterfront complex is just down on the left, located behind the buildings on the main road. I have received reports of fans getting some hassle in pubs near to the station, so use your discretion and keep colours covered.

I didn't go in there but I understand the bar at Meadow Lane was OK.

Cheers. Thought things might be a bit different with it being good Friday but I hope not. Thanks again x

I'm hearing Reading is sold out.

Donny becomes a cheap day out yippee!

After being told a couple of weeks ago when ordering our tickets they'd be £28, today we get told they are £15 for everyone, U16's a £1.
As apparently with this 'local promotion' thingy, you can't do it for the last home game. Which is what Donny were doing.

I'm assuming we did the home game v. them as a local promotion, so they were doing the same to us going by what some Donny mates have told me.

Whatever the reason for the drop in price, it's good news day for me!

Youd best ask for your refund then!

Actually, I'll check the credit card slip they sent with the ticket when I get home tonight - it's possible they charged me £15 even though it says £28 on the ticket.

That's not what's happened with our tickets. We'll be having a refund.

Aha, I suspect I'll have to email the club then.
