Oxford v Birmingham Wed 14th June CL


Recommended Posts

First visit to Cowley for me today.  Few questions. 30 years too late for Gundersen & Pedersen v Nielsen sadly.

Do I need cash?

Anywhere to park free?

Suggested fodder emporium nearby?

Will have a Belle Vue hoody, probably wrapped around my waist  Come say Hi.

Looking forward to visiting Cowley tonight, so many memories of watching Reading Racers there in the 80/90's and even Bulldogs - usually ending in defeat mind!

I take it you have already bought a ticket to get in?

Those were the days!!

No, don't really need cash. Programme is £3 if you want one and is mainly cash only, but think you can buy one from the club shop with a card. Not sure if any of the mobile fast food stores accept cash, mind.

You can park for free at the Unipart car park, but you need to book it (can risk just turning up and parking, I think some have done in the past and it's been fine, but never done it myself). Think it's pretty easy to book on the Oxford website. The car park is about a 5/10min walk from the stadium, but there's also a shuttle bus. There's also a Tesco superstore round the corner (10/15min walk) and you can park for free for 3 hours I think.

No real food outlets around the stadium, other than what's inside. There's a Burger King at the same place as the Tesco superstore, and you can get a meal at the Beefeater connected to the the Premier Inn (other side of the roundabout from the Tesco).

Hope you enjoy the visit!

You'd better buy a ticket then!?

E-ticket online.  £22. 

No wonder they can afford Mastersand Nicholls....

 

 

 

 

 

It's only £20 if purchased before raceday, so more or less the same as everyone in the CL. I'd say a couple of reasons they can afford the riders is the attendances and good sponsorship.

Same as Poole in reality

Why are you comparing it to Poole to a Brummies fan! lol

But you can spend the day in Oxford beforehand, which is a far nicer city!

Poole isn't a city anyway! Do they have a posh beach..

 

Oh...

;)

No you can't pay on the gate, had to do it via mobile.

Parking at Tesco is unrestricted after 8 pm.

Heat 1 left allot to be desired!  Hope they sort it out.
