The A19 southbound will be closed near Sunderland on the way back and it takes you on a hell of a diversion,follow the signs carefully or you will end up lost. :roll:

Also be aware those speed cameras on the approach to the stadium are ALL live and will zap you if speeding. refred

I take it some of us are going. rolf

and dont forget the A1's massive refurbishment. further delays again if you chose to go home on A1 to miss Sunderland

Also be aware that Leeds play the mags on the same night so will be plenty of wooly backs travelling up so traffic will be even worse than normal.

Don't worry mr mad. I've checked with The Man, and he tells me that as long as you drive within the speed limit those cameras won't flash you. :wink:

Thank the man for me :grin:

,just thought I would say they are ALL live unlike the one at Greatham. bbolt

Also remember if you are going through a 'average speed trap' (usually 50 mph) they are all set to clock people going over 57 mph so feel free to ride at 56mph. over an hour going through average speend traps can make you 6 miles and about 3 minutes quicker. [pointless post]

Depends how much confidence you have not only in that info but also in the accuracy of your speedo. :wink:

It is not a speed camera, it is a red light jumping camera that doesn't work
