WHICH PUB

[ROADRUNNER]

which pubs are the yellow army meeting at? its seems that the barrel in st owen street is a good pub or lichfield vaults in church street, any ideas?

The Barrels is a very popular pub due to it's ales. The Vaults is ok too. If you're coming by train and don't fancy walking into the city centre then The Merton is handy as it's about a 10min walk from Edgar Street, through the neighbouring graveyard, straight up Coningsby street, cross the road and Bob's your uncle (I'm biased since I go there a fair bit). I believe Torquay fans have also been to The Exchange before, it's not great there though to be honest. The Imperial is handy too, but can get busy on a Saturday afternoon.

thanks hrg, seems to be a good choice, last time we went there we went to a pub in the town but cant remember the name, served food freindly people ,good beer. be nice to get some input from fans going up tommorow to see where most are going.

Hereford fan on the league 2 forum suggesting that both bars at the ground will home fan's only, as per their home match with Swindon.

Suggesting Old Harp pub 5 mins from the ground, any thoughts..Hrg..all.

Hi Forever. The Old Harp is now called The Herdsman and is a bit of a dive. However if you're not fussed about decor and just want a pint it is convenient. *

Thinking about the Merton, sometimes the owner locks the doors if there is a big crowd headed their way, a few fans drifting in is no bother as I've spoken to Gillingham fans in there before.

The Heart of Oak is close to the ground. And there is The Exchange and JDs, neither are great but they are handy for the ground, just over the road from the Herdsman.

Regards parking Forest Gull Parking at the Ground or the Multi storey opposite is most convenient but will probably become busy.

I haven't been much help at all sorry!

*Edited because I saw the other forum post that Forever was referring to and I stand corrected regarding away fans at the Herdsman/Old Harp.

Has anyone made a plan to go to a particular pub? If Herdsman is closest, that'll do me...
