Addy Posted May 22, 2006 Report Share Posted May 22, 2006 How can I forget Those were the days when forum members all sat together. We are all split up now. Still, most of us are in the same hotel.

Mateusz Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 How much does the programme for Cardiff SGP cost? Or how much was it last year? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rabbit Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 About £5 - not sure though cos you get one free with your GP ticket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gresham Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 can someone help with directions to Newport Railway Station please, have been to Newport speedway is it near there? , will travel in on the M4 from Bristol direction, thanks . <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Newport station is in the centre of Newport itself. I can recommend for anyone travelling to cardiff to go by train from Bristol Parkway.40 mins & about £10 return.Plenty of safe parking as well. Remember,Cardiff central is 5mins walk to stadium. Bridge toll £4.90,parking in Cardiff a remortgage job! Also motorway into Cardiff is Gridlock at moment,I know 'cos i do it every weekend. So can really advise travelling from this side of the bridge by train. Can also recommend Bar HaHa by the castle,for good food & drink & atmostphere. Chav & Charlotte Church types don't reside here. Unfortunately i'm Johnny no mates this year,so if anyone wants a pint & chat all things speedway,i'l be the one not wearing Wulfsport & 2 foot of year bars,Just a small Bristol Bulldogs Pin badge.Ciao 4 now.

Also motorway into Cardiff is Gridlock at moment,I know 'cos i do it every weekend.So can really advise travelling from this side of the bridge by train. Well if you will try driving into Cardiff on the motorway with 72,000 football fans, you will get stuck in traffic!! TBH, I'd advise parking in Bristol or Newport and getting the train in. can someone help with directions to Newport Railway Station please, have been to Newport speedway is it near there? , will travel in on the M4 from Bristol direction, thanks .I would not head for the train station, unless you fancy a 30-45 minute walk! You want junction 24 from the M4 and follow the signs for "Newport Centre" until you see the brown signs for "Newport Speedway, Trac Racio". If you want the train station, head for Newport centre.

Jay Posted May 25, 2006 Report Share Posted May 25, 2006 Janey, You can join your fellow Poole fans and the rest of the forum'ers at the Prince Of Wales (just round the corner from the stadium) from around 1pm onwards. Afterwards, come and join Chivs's early birthday celebrations! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
