Easy walk mate. Out of the car park, down the road to Hooters, stop there for an hour or so, out of Hooters, turn right, follow the river along past Meadow Lane and the City Ground is across the river a little further on. :ayatollah:

Watch yourself on that walk though. I have done it several times, admittedly many years ago, when we played Forest and also the days of us playing Notts County. There's always a fair few Forest waiting along the way to have a pop.

Its hard to find, you literally can't see the woods for the trees, or in this case the forest. ;)

Sorry fella, but unless you go to the ground being an absolute c**t, singing city songs, speaking welsh, f*cking a sheep and wearing a city shirt and a welsh flag for a skirt, you've got nothing to worry about.

I've walked it three times in the last two seasons and haven't seen a peep.

I'll be taking the train down and having a few drinks in Hooters before the game anyway :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

I did say it was a good few years ago, I am talking over ten years since i went there by train so things might have changed.
