Bristol is well known for being accepting of people from disadvantaged backgrounds. Yep, as we have all those from south of the river to contend with

Fair play to you MH. That’s some trek in a day.
I would say defo go to Parkway both directions. You’ll pick up a cab easy enough. Are you travelling solo or with a good few of you?

Evening Guys, Looking forward to making the journey down to your place on Sat, but on a tight schedule back to Temple Meads for a 17.35pm Departure Upto Darlington. Any very reliable Taxi Firms I can book with? Cheers in Advance I live just round the corner from parkway, happy to give 2 or 3 a lift.

I was gonna say the same. I’ll have me and my boy in the car in his car seat but happy to meet you at Parkway. I always get to the ground for 1:30-2pm anyway as I’m in a box and dinner will be waiting!!

Hi mate,
Just a suggestion but check to see if your train stops at Bristol Parkway. 9 minutes journey time to Parkway from Temple Meads. Parkway is slightly closer to the Mem than Temple Meads. May give you a bit extra flex.

Any very reliable Taxi Firms I can book with? Cheers in Advance Uber pre booked is only hope but I think you’ll be pushing it in the time you’ve got - think you’ll need to leave game before the end at least. Also can be a hell of a run to the correct station platform Good luck

Surprised no-one has mentioned Parkway Station.
Should probably give you more time.

Another few points MH.
The pasties in the ground are pretty poor this year. The sausage roll is the best value item and is a massive slice of sausage. Choose well.
There is a chippy near the ground callled the Bristol fryer.
Not sure of other pubs but away fans for non derby games like this go up the Wellington pub which is pretty friendly.
Bring a coat and waterproofs as away fans don’t get the luxury of a roof.
Finally, I’ll be stood directly to the right of you on the east terrace. When events turn in our favour you’ll recognise me as the ape hanging off the fence doing double middle fingers.

I regularly catch the train and getting back to Temple Meads that time of day is a bloody nightmare and unless you have a good taxi driver who knows the backways you wont make it back there. Have a great weekend and enjoy Bristol.
