[Barking Mad Barclay Boy 13]

Hello one and all, sheffield away this saturday im taking the canary cabbage all the way there, can someone give me a rough estimate of time it will arrive?

and what if any pubs would be worth going to before the game

many thanks

The northern canaries have organised a meet up with the Board before the match at The Walkley Cottage; last match they did this there were about 200 of us in there. However if you are on cabbage, that''s a bit far to walk (and all uphill as well).

There aren''t really any pubs worthy of the name near the ground unfortunately, as they are all homers and have a strict door policy.

Away fans usually go to pubs a few tram stops away - Hillsborough Hotel (which despite its name is actually 3 miles from the Ground), the Kelham Island area where there is a group of half dozen great real ale pubs. You might also get in a pub in the Hillsborough Corner area. But again I think you''ll be struggling to get there and back if you are on Cabbage.

You might have to settle for beers in the Leppings Lane stand - if they decide to open up the bars.

The Horse & Jocky is away fan friendly. Get off the tram at leppings lane and it''s a five minute walk up Wadsley Lane
