**** IMPORTANT - NORTHAMPTON ****

Mon Aug 13, 2012 8:44 pm

I've just been told that there will be "NO" pubs serving away fans near to the ground.

The Rover on the Weedon road (A4500) is accepting away including those dressed in Club colours. Free parking is limited to around 25 spaces but you can park in numerous side streets. If you need more info then let me know.
The Rover is about an 8 minute walk from the ground.
From Sixfields head towards the town centre - go past an Audi dealership, Matalan and Halfords... pub is located on the left at the bottom of the hill near the pedestrian crossing and reptile shop.


Talks are in process with local OB with regards to somewhere larger that can accommodate coaches.
"The Turnpike" (on the A4500 near Harpole) has been discussed but not yet confirmed.
Leave the M1 at junction 16. It's located about 3 miles outside of Northampton, but is a much larger venue.

As soon as I know anything further I'll post so you may have to double check on route.

Be nice to see some City boys local for a change.

NAT pub?

sorry am I being thick?
explain

as far as I know (from crossing the road from my house, speaking to the Landlord, being told City are welcome even in colours) that everything is ok. The place has changed ownership. Used to be home only. Not any more.

Rather than :roll: what do you suggest?
