Birmingham

Recommended Posts

For anyone thinking of going on the train from Leicester, be warned that there are maintenance works on the line meaning that all trains to Birmingham require you to change at Derby (taking twice as long as they would otherwise). Also note that the first train will only get you to Birmingham at 12.09, meaning you will have to go pretty much straight to the ground.

Thanks for that Chloe.

Horrible, horrible news however. Will probably be a quick dash in the car now unfortunatly.

We'll comfortably take 2k+ I'd have thought.

Gutted at this, ruins the day for me and might not bother now. Would rather stay over sat night than arrive at that time.

Been allocated 2700 :)

That is initial though, just incase. I would have thought we would have probably taken all the tickets for Birmingham, but taking into consideration the television and the prices, I'm not too sure although I can still see 2,000+ going.

Just ordered my ticket for this :)

The 1st away game i'm going to on my own.

If anybody sees a ginger girl who is on her own (probably looking a bit lost), who looks about 14 (eventhough I am 18!), in her Leicester shirt. Come and say hello, I'm quiet, but really nice once you get me talking :)

Can't wait! Hopefully will be a good game :chant:

****ing National Rail did exactly this when we played Cov last year (or possibly the year before that) I seem to recall. I swear they mess up that line just for the fun of it, has to be one of the most unreliable I've ever come across...

Honestly going to games on your own is great - you can swan about as you fancy without having to deal with mates wanting to do things differently (which is almost always the case for me) and go properly berserk during the game without feeling that your mates are getting embarrassed by you :thumbup:

Im 20 and gonna get u18 ticket's for this game, Do you think theat there is any chance of getting ID'd at St Andrews?

No you'll be fine. They will most likely check for student ID (if you have a student ticket) but they can't really prove that you are not under 18.

Oh for fvck sake, no trains from Leics-Birmingham, where do I live? Narborough. Fantastic. So instead of a simple journey in which it's the only away of the season in-fact I wouldn't have to change for, and now I've got to change twice. Seriously are these people just stupid? They shut a Leicester to Birmingham line, when Leicester play Birmingham, I have a funny feeling that's not an accident because that's just too daft to laugh at.

Pretty sure they always choose to do maintenance work on a Sunday, it has nothing to do with the football. They aren't going to stop the trains midweek now are they?
