Tickets
We've been allocated 1,367 seats for this match and will, as usual be accommodated in the Lower Tier of the Steve Bull Stand - no, they've not moved us; it's just a new name for the old, old John Ireland Stand. Tickets are priced at £27 for adults and £14 for students, 16 and unders and Seniors (under 65) - Wolves charge these prices for all games; I suppose we should be pleased that they are not making extra money out of our visits as the shaggers did last week!
Tickets will go on sale as follows:
Monday 27th November - Season Ticket Holders Priority 1
Tuesday 28th November - Season Ticket Holders Priority 2
Wednesday 29th November - Season Ticket Holders Priority 3
Thursday 30th November - Members
Friday 1st December - General Sale
(This does seem to be a small allocation and presumably more tickets will be obtained if it looks likely that we will sell out.)
Coaches
FoxTravel will be leaving at 12:30. Adults travel for £13.50, concessions for £11.50 - with season ticket holders getting a quid discount in each case.
Directions
M69
M6 to Junction 10
A454 towards Wolverhampton (be wary of the many speed cameras!!).
When you reach the Ring Road A4150, turn right onto the Ring Road.
As you approach the 2nd set of lights look for the signs for football parking. The ground is over the 2nd set of lights on the right. Alternatively if you turn left into the city centre you may find a space in one of the many council run 'pay & display' car parks.
Just less than 60 miles - about 1¼ hours, or a bit more if you get stuck in traffic on the M6!
(I doubt whether much time can be saved by using the M6Toll - you could try it up to Junction T8, then A460 into Wolverhampton; or A460, M54 to enter Wolverhampton from the north via the A449. There are really loads of alternatives, but I generally find the A454 the most convenient approach)
Trains
Journey time of about 1½ hours with a single change at Birmingham New Street. Cheap Day Return fare is £10.80 - GroupSave fares apply, meaning that groups of 3 travel for £7.20 each and groups of 4 for £5.40 each (NB Such groups must ensure that they travel by Central Trains between New Street and Wolverhampton)
The ground is about 15 minutes walk from the station.
Pubs
Most of the grounds around the ground will allow admit home fans, although well-behaved away fans in small groups should have no difficulty getting a drink in the town centre. London Branch use the Great Western which is behind the station, near where the old Low Level station used to be - Real Ale and decent pub food at a reasonable price.
There was no equivalent thread last season. :icon_wink
