spin king Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 (edited) Really looking forward to this meeting!! Can any Sheffield locals give me an indication of the best way to get from the Sheffield Train station to the stadium? I see it's 3 miles - Is it walkable(it looks a pretty straight route but it the A61 walkable?)?? Go Darcy/ The Fish/ Jordan!!!! Not really it fair old walk and you would be better catching,the bus or taxi. The taxi rank is just outside the train station,and the taxi fare will be 10 minutes and cost around £9 give or take a £1,or failing that you can catch a bus which takes about 10 minutes,the bus station is across the road from the train station, when you get there go to the Travel Information Centre and tell them you want to catch a First 53 bus to Ecclesfield, or a First 77 and 78 to High Green, they will point you in the direction of where to catch the bus and give timetables. When you get on the bus asked to be dropped off at Owlerton Stadium. have a good time mate. Edited September 27, 2009 by spin king Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think you have did more to promote this meeting than the promoters and the BSPA put together Do you like speedway or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 Don't know where you got that from , cause i thought last years was pretty good . The only thing i've noticed about previous PLRC's at Sheffield is that the outside gate seems to be at a huge disadvantage Might have been from me....I didn't think it was great compared to others I have seen at Sheffield although things improved as the afternoon went on. You are right, gate four was a graveyard for most of the afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right, gate four was a graveyard for most of the afternoon. Adrian Rymel made a HUGE mistake choosing gate four in last years final!!! We're on our way in 5 minutes ..... see you all there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
