TheSufferingVilla Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 Heading over for the Spuds game on the 26th, will trains be running from the city centre to Witton/Aston? I always seem to get stuck at the station for an hour in the cold after every game are buses a better way to get back to the city? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gingerlad Posted December 17, 2010 Share Posted December 17, 2010 Walk. For someone who runs 7miles to work every day, this might seem a sensible suggestion. To us normal folk it seems absurd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSufferingVilla Posted December 17, 2010 Author Share Posted December 17, 2010 Um ok, walking to New Street from VP on a nice sunny Spring morning would be lovely but in the freezing cold of winter I'd probably lose a testicle to frostbite en-route. Back to my earlier question, will there be regular train service? If not what are my other options bus wise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSufferingVilla Posted December 24, 2010 Author Share Posted December 24, 2010 Bollocks, how much will a taxi to VP from New Street set me back? Paid something like 40 pounds to get from the stadium to the airport after the Arsenal match 2 years back cost more than my flights from Dublin did.

RunRickyRun Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Walk. It's about 45 mins to an hour depending on how fast you are. You'll probably beat the bus/train as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
