I’ve done the Meadowhall option before. Mrs went shopping, I got the tram to the game. Easy!

Ordered 8 on 10th October and they've not arrived yet ! I've contacted the TO and if they haven't arrived by Friday I've to let them know and they'll put them on the re-print list to be collected at Bramhall Lane.

2700 the club have just posted on social media. Good effort for an early kickoff with no trains.
Wow, that’s a very good following. Thanks for confirming jrgbfc. Should be a cracking atmosphere!!

Here's hoping you have a more enjoyable day than the last time we were there. What an awful day that was. Lost the rugby World Cup in the morning, p1ssed it down all day and 3-0 down by half time. The only thing that got us through the first half was the thought of a pie and ale at half time. Neither alcohol or hot food was available. We settled for a bovril and wished we hadn't made the trip.

Aside from that, Sheffield is a great city with plenty of good boozers - already mentioned. Despite lacking in qualifications I used to cook all the hot food for the concourses at Bramall Lane - the kitchen was in the tier above the away end so you can imagine my surprise when there was no hot food at half time. My advice is eat before you get there or grab a pie pre-match. And if they still have the same set up, avoid the burgers!

Looks like you can still get the train from Keighley to Sheffield via Leeds.

Good news for any West Yorkshire Claret.
