Can someone tell me how far the station is from the ground? It's not clear on multimap as 2 grounds are shown on the diagram.

Is it possible to make a 17.36 train?

In the past I have gone by car/coach but this time will go on the train.

From memory it's not too far, probably a 15-20 minute walk.

Literally 5 mins from the ground. Leave the ground and go out past that new seated stand as opposed to behind the away end, then keeping going following the home fans through an alley way which brings you out near a small car park, and turn right up the hill.

I missed most of Grame Hick's record Twenty20 century because an apparent twenty minute walk from Kiddie Station to the Cricket Ground turned into an hours plus jaunt. As has been said though Phil, KHFC to Station is approx ten minutes!

Come out of the away end round to the other side of the ground behind their main stand, come down the footpath beside the new housing estate and back on to the high street and it is five minutes to the right.

About 10 mins. You'll piss the 17.36pm.

Great stuff, thanks once again to all for the info.

Train tickets booked for a stunning bargain of 20 English pounds, let's hope it's more enjoyable than last year's defeat!

Very Happy

The pub next to the chippy is ok as well,(can't remember it's name)I seem to remember the landlord is a Rangers fan.He usually has a live game on when we've been in there previously.

Not the biggest place but always seems to have a good number of City fans crammed in pre-match.

My usual routine at Kidderminster is to go straight into their massive social club at the ground but last year they didn't open that big room and to be honest the atmosphere in the other part was pretty drab and the beer was crap.

This time I plan to drink in a couple of pubs before popping in there maybe at about 2.40 for a quick pre-match final pint.
