saintscottofthenortham Posted 1 May, 2011 Share Posted 1 May, 2011 Barbican is about 40 minute walk. match ticket gives u a 10% cab discount if u go with tower cabs - their number's on the back of the ticket. A lot of closer pubs that are closer but Home Park is at the far end of an enormous park so most places are going to be a 15 minute walk. My advice would be to walk from the station to mutley plain for a few then 15 min ish walk to the stadium probably. Used to live down that way a few years back - quite studenty but plenty of boozers inc a weatherspoons. The barbican is the other side of town completely so taxi's would be best then. Cheers mate. The pub we have always gone to down there has shut down apparently. Can't remember the name but it was only about a 10-15 minute walk from train station en route to Home Park. Cracking place it was and always had a large contingent of Saints in there so maybe someone on here knows where I'm on about...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shurlock Posted 1 May, 2011 Share Posted 1 May, 2011 Anyone know how bad it is getting out of the free car park opposite the ground after the game?? Not worth the aggro - ground is in a leafy residential area, so park in one of those streets, leaving a very short walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chez Posted 1 May, 2011 Share Posted 1 May, 2011 Anyone know how bad it is getting out of the free car park opposite the ground after the game?? on football away grounds it says half an hour (first in first out), but I'll believe that when I see it.

Sheaf Saint Posted 1 May, 2011 Share Posted 1 May, 2011 I'm sadly not going tomorrow but I'm really looking forward to following the match. In years gone by I would be bricking it about going away to a relegation-threatened side, but for the first time in my Saints-supporting life I am 100% confident that the lads will go out and do a professional job and do what is necessary to get the three points. Really looking forward to celebrating promotion tomorrow. I don't think my nerves can take going to the final day to determine if we go up automatically or have to face the potential nightmare of the playoffs.

HTH But that means a defeat against Walsall, which at best (1 goal defeat) would bring the g.d. level for Saints and Huddersfield. And with their 15-0 victory Huddersfield will have scored more goals, winning the next tiebraker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squiggly_dan Posted 2 May, 2011 Share Posted 2 May, 2011 Cheers mate. The pub we have always gone to down there has shut down apparently. Can't remember the name but it was only about a 10-15 minute walk from train station en route to Home Park. Cracking place it was and always had a large contingent of Saints in there so maybe someone on here knows where I'm on about...? Get up to Mutley Plain and into The Fortescue or Hyde Park - the only two proper pubs in the area (Fortescue particularly good for ales!). Turn right out of the train station and follow the line for about 10 minutes until you get to Mutley Baptist Church. The Fortescue is half way up and Hyde Park is right at the top where the road forks - just follow the left fork and cut left down one of the side roads to Central Park and the ground. This route may look a little longer on the map, but believe me, it cuts out the steepest part of the climb into the park! Once the game is over (and you no longer care what your beer tastes like!) there is a good bar crawl to be done back down Mutley, North Hill, and into town - Mannamead, Cafe Sol, Dog & Duck, Mutley Crown, Boomerangs, The Junction, Mousetrap, Cuba/Air, Skiving Scholar, Fresher & Professor, Ride, The Roundabout, Voodoo & on - if you are still standing after that lot I will buy you a drink! See you there! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxi_sopez Posted 2 May, 2011 Share Posted 2 May, 2011 Very nervous but excited about this game! Going to be listening nervously in the states, so excited by the thought of coming home in the summer and seeing us playing at Elland Road, Upton Park and so on! And anyone who says if we win tomorrow we still may not be promoted is a complete idiot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The joys of Time Zones The big day is here and up early worried already by our not having won more than 4 League games in a row all season record! Oh and we are not "technically" promoted today as some have pointed out if both us and Udders win. That magical phrase Mathematical Probability drifts into use, followed by the more Pedantic "To all intents and purposes, Saints will be promoted today" But yes as far as I'm concerned I'll leap around like a loon if it happens.

Getting ready to put my Saints shirt on and cycle to the Station wearing it with pride...until we get in the ground as I will be in the home end.....Perhaps in the 89th minute when we are 4-0 up it might reappear.Who knows.

Rory Posted 2 May, 2011 Share Posted 2 May, 2011 If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you; If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or, being hated, don't give way to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise; If you can dream - and not make dreams your master; If you can think - and not make thoughts your aim; If you can meet with triumph and disaster And treat those two imposters just the same; If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to broken, And stoop and build 'em up with wornout tools; If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings And never breath a word about your loss; If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on"; If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with kings - nor lose the common touch; If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you; If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run - Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And - which is more - you'll be a man my son.

SaltashSaint Posted 2 May, 2011 Share Posted 2 May, 2011 It is a beautiful day down here in Plymouth with the sun shining - the perfect day for Saints to all but clinch promotion. So looking forward to the game. I am very confident about claiming the three points today and although I don't expect it to be easy with Argyle battling to stay up, I am sure our class will prevail in the end.

Professor Posted 2 May, 2011 Share Posted 2 May, 2011 I predict that Saints will win 1-0 and Huddersfield will only thrash Brentford 15-0, so Saints are promoted by a goal difference of 1. HTH In this world of nightmare scenarios, we could win 1-0 today giving us a GD of +45 against Huddersfield's +29. We celebrate promotion. Then on Saturday, if Huddersfield have an amazing 10-0 win at Brentford it would take their GD to +39. If we were to lose at Walsall 6-0 our GD would fall to +39 and Huddersfield would go 2nd because they would have scored more goals overall. Ridiculous I know, but unless something is mathematically impossible it is possible, so what ever the result today, it looks like we will have to wait until the last day to be certain beyond any doubt, but the bigger the win today the better.

rallyboy Posted 2 May, 2011 Share Posted 2 May, 2011 Boro's equaliser, Villa's 3rd, Bent's last minute winner - today Mr Adkins can bury all of those moments. He has quietly kept the lid on the expectation but has been 100% confident from day one that promotion is our destiny. He has the bus motoring now, we are all rowing in the same direction, he is chipping away, chipping away. I'm looking forward to the moment when Nige goes crazy and runs all over the pitch, or at least steams his glasses up. I would love us to win promotion at home but I would love it even more if we didn't need a thing from the Walsall game. So sort it today Nige. I hope we will be unstoppable - the bus is going too quick for Plymouth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
