Coundon I assume the kids fair is just under 15?
And are the prices return?

Not sure with the ages, usually under 15 on his fares though.

Yeah those are return fates.

I'm not going this year, but went on this bus last year, best to get off just on the way into leicester city centre near the high cross where there's a few pubs & short walk to the ground.

Cheers, I've heard the closest to get off at is the leicester infirmary?

LRI is about 5 minutes walk to the ground, also convenient for the Counting House pub if u fancy a pre-match pint

Coundon,
Do you need to pay in advance for the coach?
Or is it like a bus, and pay on the door?

It's just a normal bus, pay as you get on at pool meadow. Think you just get a ticket to keep for the return.

I went on it last year as the official coach is overpriced & going on the train results in you getting treated like a criminal at the station.

Which Leicester stop is it and how far's the walk mate?

I understand it goes up Walnut Street, which is as close to the ground as makes no difference.

 

[coundonskyblue]

Not sure for the ground as I went for a drink in the town so just stayed on till the bus station.

 

[Blue Maniac]

Yep, just checked. Definitely Walnut Street. Get off just before the Tigers ground. Five minutes walk, unless you've got crap shoes or a broken foot.

Great stuff thanks guys.
