Walsall Away

[duckyellow]

Just bought 6 tickets online for Walsall. Should be another good following from the yellows. A little concerned about receiving tickets if the Ticket office stays shut for the next couple of days. ?

Walsall away, Boxing Day. Richard|Hill almost embarrassed to score his fourth in a 5-1 victory. Very quiet on the coach on the way up to Fellows Park with many hang overs. Such happy memories.

We were 1-0 down at half time too if memory serves me right.

Yep, I was there as well. I think a few weeks later Chelsea, who were slumming it in the second division at the time, went there and hit 7

“ MASSIVE “ game for Walsall and Oxford at the Banks’s Stadium.

Really looking forward to this one: good atmosphere I’d guess, lovely pub B and B to follow with decent beer. And three points.

2000 fans again maybe? Walsall expecting 1000, but we asked for a second allocation of 500 last Friday according to the Walsall ticket office. Bought my family ticket on Moday, can only be done through them.

I reckon around 1,500 noisy yellows.

First visit. Any suggestions for parking and pubs?

Or hop on the train for the short trip into town.

Heading up for this one too. Neat little stadium in a weird location.

Are Walsall the most forgettable club in the FL? Normally most sides have something that makes them stand out - an unlikely stint in the top flight, a memorable cup run or historic giant slaying, the starting club of an international great or something.

What does Walsall have going for it? They just seem like a run-of-the-mill FL side that’s the epitome of lower half League 1 (like us at present).

The away friendly supporters bar is no longer an option, instead they now serve alcohol in the away end I believe.

A few weeks ago the we didn't give it a thought, now kicking ourselves for having made plans for the Sunday. Still, got tickets for Shrewsbury coming so mustn't grumble!
Overnight and dinner out as well!

If you’re going to park in the club car park behind the visitors end you should get there really early. It fills up quickly

The the do have a railway station behind the away end and there are trains from New Street every half an hour. I would say the best thing about playing Walsall is that you only have to spend a minimal amount of time in Walsall.

Walsall have become a bit of a bogey team these days (if such a thing exists). I'd be content with a point to hit the magic 50.

So it's easy to get a train from the ground to New Street?

Pretty much a train every 15 minutes in each direction. About 20 minute journey.

 

[sideshowrob]

Platform 2b (usually but check in case they change it). Some great pubs within 5 minutes of New Street station.

Yeah shame about the bar not letting away fans anymore. Was hoping to watch the Grand National in there after the match.
