Who is going? By the way, you CAN pay on the gate.

I'll be going. My closest game home or away :grin:

Mr Ripper · **Posted:** Mon Sep 22, 2008 12:08 pm

Still undecided.

Fancy it but lots of other stuff to spend money on at the moment.

Can you definitely pay on the gate, or is it one of those where you have to go to their ticket office beforehand and then round to the turnstile? I seem to recall that their turnstiles were unmanned scanner thingys last year.

Nah...Our Kids Mrs is about to have a baby, so she has insisted that he drives to the match just in case he needs to get home quick. I'm GOING with him, but I might be looking for a lift home if he gets the nod!

Bet you get a call just before kick off. rolfl

Sold over 900 now and there will be another 100-200 who pay on the gate so good atmosphere is expected

Anyone know if you can park next to ground, or at least somewhere in walking distance. Got the bus from the town centre last year, but wont have time to do that this year?

no6bus · **Joined:** Thu Aug 17, 2006 8:55 pm **Posts:** 5095

there is a big car park next to the ground but takes up to 30 min to get out

martin83 · **Joined:** Tue Jan 01, 2008 8:47 pm **Posts:** 570

That should do nicely, beats making a one hour walk back to the centre, passing hundreds of horrible leeds fans hanging out of a pub wanting blood!

Suggest you park at Junction One Retail Park. Go through Leeds inner ring road and out towards Manchester and come off at the A6110 (south ring road). Filter right and park by B&Q. It's about a 10 minute walk to the ground, but, if you leg it, you'll avoid some long delays. And no charge. See map thingy at

Excellent, will have a look into this, Cheers.

You can't actually pay on the gate, they have fancy bar coded turnstyle thingys. You have to go the the North East ticket office (near the away end) and purchase a ticket then queue again to get in the ground. This is from a mate who rang Leeds today. Still it sounds like we are going to have a decent following for a Carling Cup tie 1,200 at least I'd say.

The Peacock? Such a lovely place for a quiet pint.

Looking increasingly likely I'm gonna be there, hope we're not putting a reserve team out!

Peacock not now closed?

Can you pay for tickets with a card you reckon??

A Hallmark card?

Or a Riley's membership card?

I might try and pay using my CSCS card.

I think they'll prefer cash.

Although they may take a debit or credit card.
